Durable state
Maintain useful long-term state across sessions instead of treating each conversation as an isolated event.
Persistent personal AI
Building AI that can keep its state.
Maiar Ltd is developing a persistent Personal AI operating layer designed to move beyond isolated chat sessions — with durable user state, controlled memory, tool execution and specialist-agent orchestration.
The problem
Long-running AI needs more than a conversation.
Foundation models are powerful but probabilistic. Personal agents operating over time need a durable control layer that can preserve intent, manage state safely and recover when something goes wrong.
Controlled memory
Make persistent writes auditable and recoverable rather than allowing silent, uncontrolled memory drift.
Agent orchestration
Coordinate tools and specialist agents behind a controlled shared state while preserving user intent.
Our approach
A model-flexible operating layer around foundation models.
The architecture separates the model from persistent control. A state and orchestration layer manages durable memory and transactional changes; a cognitive runtime structures recurring behaviours; specialist capabilities can be added without making any one model the system itself.

Google access
Minimal, user-directed access.
The current SKIPPY prototype can connect to Gmail only when explicitly authorized by the user. Its dedicated Gmail adapter requests read-only access so it can search and read messages for user-requested assistant tasks. It does not expose Gmail send, reply, modify, label, trash, delete or draft actions, and the current adapter does not download attachments.
Current stage
Early, bootstrapped and deliberately validation-led.
Maiar is pre-seed and currently testing product direction and architecture. The project is at internal prototype stage. Target market and business model validation are part of the next phase; no external customer or revenue traction is claimed at this stage.
