About Maya

Maya was created in 1998 by Alias|Wavefront, a division of Silicon Graphics, Inc. (SGI). It was developed to provide a more robust and flexible toolset for 3D artists working in animation and visual effects industries. The software quickly gained popularity due to its advanced features and capabilities, becoming a standard in the industry.

Maya's strengths include its comprehensive toolset, advanced animation capabilities, and industry-standard status. Weaknesses involve its steep learning curve and high cost. Competitors include Blender, 3ds Max, and Cinema 4D.
