Building with Maz

Mike Maziarz is a founder and builder of companies. He is currently Chief Marketing Officer of MindBridge AI, a category leader in autonomous financial oversight. He is the founder of Tropo, an AI research project with a mission to educate, tool, and support knowledge workers as we all navigate a future of human-agentic work. Tropo is an operating system for agentic builders. The Tropo Studio ships with agent governance, agent lifecycle management, work management, and content publishing. Its design principle is extreme work portability across agentic harnesses, so humans keep their own agency across major platforms.
