Seamless Tool Connection
Maia integrates natively with popular business applications, allowing workflows to read, write, and manage data across your existing tools. You don’t need to manually configure “nodes” or “connectors.” Just tell Maia what you need, and it automatically uses the right connection.How Connections Work
One-Time Authorization
