AI knowledge base that gives installers and service desks instant answers, with sources
Answers drawn from roughly 25,000 manuals spanning more than 85 brands, covering boilers, heat pumps, air conditioning, ventilation, charging points, solar panels and inverters.
Look up error codes, check parameter and settings values, and identify the exact part number needed, instead of digging through portal PDFs.
Every response carries the original technical source and page reference, so technicians can verify the advice before acting on it.
Manuel indexes past work orders, internal documents, technician tips and previously solved faults alongside manufacturer data.
Open-source workflow automation built for AI agents and technical teams
Build automations with a visual node editor, then insert JavaScript or Python code nodes when you need custom logic.
Connect to 500+ native services, any REST API via HTTP nodes, and any agent or coding assistant through MCP.
Run agents alongside regular steps, inspect every decision, and add structured inputs, guardrails and human approval steps.
Watch workflows execute live, open past runs, replay a run with mocked data and re-run just the step that failed.
