Templates in Maze are a quick and easy way to solve a particular problem using a library of pre-built tests.
Once you find a template you like, you can use it to create a new maze and add pre-populated blocks to get started right away. If you need to add more questions or tweak the maze, you can make changes, just like you would in any other maze.
You'll find templates broken down into two main categories:
- Basic: These templates don't require any paid features, and can be used by Free customers right from the start.
- Pro: These templates use one or more features that require a paid subscription, and thus are only available to customers on a paid plan. These templates are marked in the templates list with a PRO label.

Where can I find templates in Maze?
You can find a preview of all our available templates in maze.co/templates
Additionally, you will also see the templates library right in your account, when clicking the View Templates button on the top right corner of the Projects page.
Creating a new maze from a template
- You can also apply a template when creating a new maze.
- Click each template to preview its blocks and questions.
- Click Use template to copy the template into a maze of your own, where you can freely customize and use all the pre-made blocks.
Custom templates
If you're on the Organization plan, you can create and reuse your own custom templates.
Creating a custom template
If you're on the Organization plan, you can save your own mazes as custom templates. To create a custom template:
- Open a project in Maze.
- In the list of mazes inside the project, click the More menu (•••) to the right of the maze you want to save as a template.
- From the drop-down, select Save as template.
- Enter the name of the template.
- Click Save.
Custom templates are independent of the original maze. As such, changes to the original maze will not be reflected in your custom template. To make changes to your custom templates, please follow the steps in the section below: Edit custom templates
Using a custom template
Your custom templates will appear at the top of the templates list.
