# What is Maia?

> Meet your AI executives — operational teammates that plan, coordinate, and execute complex work

## More Than an AI Agent

Maia is an **AI executive platform** — build and customize AI executives that understand operations end-to-end, collaborate with teams, and run complex workflows across your company. Unlike chatbots that answer questions or single-purpose agents that handle one task, Maia executives plan, coordinate, and execute sustained operational work.

## The Multi-Model Advantage

Every AI executive runs on a massively multi-agent system that orchestrates multiple state-of-the-art AI models to deliver the best results.

Under the hood, Maia coordinates agents powered by **GPT 5.6 Sol**, **Claude Fable 5**, and **Gemini 3.1 Pro**, assigning each task to the model best suited for the job.

Each task is automatically routed to the agent that will perform it best, giving your executives the combined strengths of the world's leading AI models.

## Massively Multi-Agent Coordination

At its core, Maia uses **massively multi-agent chain-of-thought** — your executives don't execute alone, they coordinate:

1. **Thinks**: Analyzes your request and understands the goal
2. **Plans**: Breaks down complex tasks into semantic steps
3. **Delegates**: Assigns each sub-task to specialized agents
4. **Executes**: Coordinates multiple agents working in parallel

This means your executives can handle operations that would normally require a team of specialists — from research and data analysis to document creation and web automation.

## Built for Everyone

Whether you're a small business owner automating repetitive tasks or a developer building custom integrations, Maia adapts to your level of technical expertise:

* **No-code interface** for business users
* **Visual workflows** for process optimization
* **Custom AI executives** for different operational domains
* **Flexible deployment** with webhooks, schedules, and triggers
