Maisa

Maisa is a pioneering Spanish AI start-up that has recently raised $5 million in funding from prominent backers, including Village Global and notable figures from the tech industry. The company aims to tackle the significant issues of trust and transparency that often accompany the use of artificial intelligence in enterprises. Many organizations today are hesitant to fully embrace generative AI and large language models (LLMs) due to concerns over hallucinations—instances where the AI generates incorrect or nonsensical information—and the opaque nature of black-box systems that make it difficult to audit decision-making processes.

Maisa differentiates itself by providing a methodology that emphasizes the process of arriving at answers rather than presenting final results in an unverified manner. Their technology, named Vinci KPU, utilizes existing LLMs to perform complex tasks while keeping users informed at every step of the decision-making process. This ensures that enterprises can maintain control, apply their judgment, and rely on the AI’s output with greater confidence. Notable clients include financial services firms and large manufacturers seeking to mitigate risks and ensure compliance in highly regulated environments. With its innovative approach to AI, Maisa is setting out to redefine what is possible in enterprise automation.
