To find who has done this kind of work before, mention Maito in Slack and describe the project. Maito searches your project folders and staff bios, lists the matching engagements with who led them and the result, notes who has left or is away, and tells you which documents you can't open.
How it's done today
Firms reinvent work they've already done.
What Maito does
- Search past projects and bios
- Name people and documents to reuse
Example
@Maito have we done supply chain work in food retail? Call with a regional grocer tomorrow.
Yes, two projects: • Globex Grocers, 2023. Distribution network redesign, 14 weeks, led by Sam. Cut delivery cost per case by 9%. • Wonka Foods bakery chain, 2024. Demand forecasting for 60 stores, 10 weeks, led by Jo. Waste down 15%. Catch: Jo left the firm in March. Priya built the forecasting model, so ask her about reuse. Sam is back Nov 3. The Globex Grocers final report is restricted to the partner group. I can see it exists but can't open it for you, so ask Sam for access. The Wonka summary deck is open to you. From the project folders and staff bios in Drive. Want me to pull the Wonka deck into a one-pager for tomorrow?

What it won't do
It only knows projects that are documented in your files. Work nobody wrote up won't show, and it can't confirm a colleague's availability.
Questions
Your connected file tool: Google Drive, Box, Dropbox, Notion or Microsoft 365. It only sees what its account can access.
It can say a file exists but can't open it, and tells you who to ask for access.
Yes. Ask for a one-pager from an open deck or report and it attaches the document.
