Generating the Plan

Last modified: June 16, 2026

Introduction

Maia translates your defined scope into a concrete plan, which includes a series of epics and stories.

  1. After you click Approve to Generate, the Generate Plan window appears, and Maia starts populating it with the proposed plan based on the project scope.
    After the Generate Plan window is populated, you can see the following information generated by Maia:

    • Cards for each epic that contributes to building the app.
      You can remove epics by hovering over them, then clicking the trash can icon.
      Click the card to:

      • See the list of stories for an epic in the right side panel.
      • Edit the description or details of the epic.

      You can perform the following actions on each story:

      • To see the full details of a story or edit it, click the three-dot menu, then select Edit.
      • To remove a story, click the three-dot menu, then select Delete.
  2. While the project plan is being generated, you have these options:

    • Previous – Click this button to return to the Define Scope window. Any changes you have made are saved.
    • Save and Exit – Save all the changes and leave the flow.

    After the project plan is fully generated and you have made any necessary changes, click Start Building.

Recommended Marketplace Components

Maia identifies approved Marketplace components that can accelerate your development. If Maia finds components that can help you implement a specific story, they are displayed in the following places:

  • At the epic level, as a number. Example: 1 Resource.

  • At the user story level, in the side panel. From here, you can perform the following actions:

    • If you want more details about the component, click it to access its page in the Marketplace.
    • If you do not want a component to be used, delete it by clicking the trash can icon.

If your company has company-approved components, Maia only returns company-approved components from the Public and Private Marketplace.
If your company does not have company-approved components, Maia returns the following types of components:

  • Platform-supported components
  • All Private Marketplace components
