## Where AI helps an operations team.

Maito handles the chasing and the paperwork between systems. It chases missing inputs in Slack and email, writes the Monday report from your connected tools, and turns a process into a written guide. It keeps a shared spreadsheet clean, answers who owns this, and books travel within your policy. For specific trades it also works through scheduling, orders, inventory and field jobs.

Operations owners keep the decisions. Process owners approve a written guide, owners confirm the rows Maito flags in a spreadsheet, and the traveller picks and books. Where a workflow touches customers, staff, orders or schedules, a person approves before anything is sent or changed. Maito does not change records or book anything on its own.

Start with chasing missing inputs. Pick one recurring request, such as monthly numbers from team leads, and ask @Maito in Slack to collect them by a date. Connect the spreadsheet where they land. When it works, set up the Monday report as a Loop and add the chase to it.

## Questions.

### Can it chase people outside the company?

Yes, by email. Replies come back into the same work, and it reports what's still missing.

### Which tools can it pull from?

Any tool with an MCP connection, plus anything you can reach with a skill and a login in the Vault.

### How long does it take to set up?

Minutes for the workspace: create it, connect your AI provider and connect Slack. Each workflow then takes one request to your agent, plus signing in to any tool it needs.

### Do we need a developer?

No. You set up each workflow by asking your agent in plain words. A repository is only needed for coding work.

### What does it cost?

$149 per workspace per month, with unlimited people and $20 in cloud credits each month. Your AI provider bills its usage separately.

## Put your AI teammate to work.

Set it up in minutes. Start with one workflow, and let it earn the next one.
