Start with the PC you have
A private AI setup works best when the model fits the machine. MAIA checks practical signals such as GPU, RAM, storage, and installed runtimes before recommending a setup path.
- Avoid guessing which model to pull first
- Understand why smaller models may be the right starting point
- See setup guidance before committing disk space
Keep local work understandable
Private AI is not only about location. Users also need to know what runs locally, which features need account services, and which third-party tools have their own licenses or terms.
- Clear local-first messaging
- Account-managed upgrades
- Support and diagnostics when users need help
Windows-first does not mean Windows-only forever
The current MAIA launch is focused on Windows because that is where the first user workflow is strongest. Future platform expansion should only happen when the setup experience can stay clear and supportable.
