# 2026 Terminology changes

export const maia_agents = "Maia AI Agents";

export const s_runner = "Streaming runner";

export const m_runner = "Maia runner";

export const maia = "Maia";

In early 2026, we made the decision at Matillion to rebrand "Data Productivity Cloud" as a whole to "Maia".

Additionally, we have opted to rename "agents" to "runners" to free up the term "agent" for AI-related nomenclature.

## Terminology changes

The following terminology changes have been made across our documentation and other assets (Academy, Certification, Support, etc) to reflect updates in our product naming:

| Previous term                          | New term              |
| -------------------------------------- | --------------------- |
| Data Productivity Cloud                | {maia}                |
| Data Productivity Cloud agent          | {m_runner}            |
| Streaming agent                        | {s_runner}            |
| Data Productivity Cloud Flex connector | {maia} Flex connector |

To reflect the broader scope of Maia, the term "{maia_agents}" now reflects the AI capabilities of Maia. You might also see {maia_agents} referred to in our marketing material as Maia Team.
