Maisa AI
Auditable AI digital workers for regulated industries
Overview
Maisa AI builds "Digital Workers", AI agents defined in natural language in Maisa Studio and executed through its Knowledge Processing Unit, with every step recorded in a replayable Chain-of-Work trace. It targets banking, insurance, engineering and manufacturing, and raised a $25M seed led by Creandum in August 2025.

Maisa AI sells accountability rather than raw model capability. Business teams describe a process in Maisa Studio, and the resulting Digital Worker runs it through code-backed execution with every step recorded, so a result can be traced and re-run for an auditor. It can run inside a customer's VPC or on premises, and its traces let customers move work onto smaller, cheaper models over time. Santander is a named, large-scale reference.
It is still a young, venture-funded company started in 2024. It publishes no prices, sells through demos and pilots, and its public evidence is vendor case studies and awards rather than user reviews. No ASEAN presence was found. Regulated enterprises with a hard audit requirement should evaluate it directly; small teams should look elsewhere.
What we found
Maisa AI is a young Spanish company, started in early 2024 by chief executive David Villalón and chief scientific officer Manuel Romero, with offices in Valencia and San Francisco and a Delaware operating entity, Maisa Inc. It raised a $5 million pre-seed led by NFX in December 2024, then a $25 million seed in August 2025 led by Creandum, with Forgepoint Capital International, a joint venture with Banco Santander, taking part alongside NFX and Village Global. Earlier versions of this page gave 2023 as the founding year and called Forgepoint a co-lead. IT Brief reported the seed as the largest in Spain to date.
The product is Maisa Studio. A business user describes a process in plain language, including its rules, controls and exceptions, and Maisa runs it as a "Digital Worker" through its Knowledge Processing Unit, which turns model output into executed code. Every step goes into a Chain-of-Work record that can be replayed for an auditor. Those records are also used to move a worker onto smaller models the customer owns, which is where the company's claim of about 90 times cheaper runs at scale comes from; that figure has no published method.
Santander is the reference account. Maisa says the bank runs thousands of Digital Workers across more than 15 business units in over 21 countries, and Santander's chief data and AI officer presented the work with Villalón at Revolution Banking 2026 in Madrid. Other published cases are anonymous, including a reconciliation deployment said to filter out 99% of false positives.
Outside validation is mostly awards rather than users. Maisa reports being named a front runner in a March 2026 Gartner report on agentic-AI start-ups, which is gated, and it won a Rising Star award in Deloitte's Technology Fast 50 Spain. No public review base turned up. Pricing is quote-only, and the AWS Marketplace listing bills in contract units. It fits regulated enterprises that need a defensible audit trail, not small teams wanting off-the-shelf automation.
