Smart Tool Selection

Maia doesn’t require you to manually specify which connections to use. It intelligently selects the right actions based on your intent.
Think of it like talking to a skilled assistant who knows which tools to reach for — you describe the outcome, not the implementation.

Suggested Actions vs. Available Actions

Suggested Actions

When building a workflow, Maia suggests actions for AI agents based on your request: Your Request:
"Retrieve Instagram posts from my feed, generate a similar
image for posting,and email me it as an attachment."
Maia’s suggested actions for the prompt:
  • Generate Image: Create an image using Nano Banana Pro
  • Gmail: Send email with attachment
These suggestions appear in the workflow visualization before execution.
Edit modular prompt sections

Available Actions (Dynamic Discovery)

During execution, if Maia encounters a situation not covered by the plan, it searches its action library for solutions: Scenario:
  • Planned action: “Read the report from Dashboard”
  • Problem: Dashboard requires 2FA code
  • Dynamic discovery: Maia searches for “Get 2FA code” actions
  • Finds: Gmail action to read 2FA code from email
  • Executes: Reads code, completes authentication, proceeds with download
Result: Workflow adapts without manual intervention
