We’re building Primitive Swarm to help you put what your people know to work on your next commercial decision.

Talk to us about Primitive Swarm

Controlled research pilots are underway. We’ve tested how teams assess a question, trace evidence, investigate and follow up in limited settings. The advisory panel, broader automation and forecasting are still in development or planned.

01 / A commercial question

Could an offer that works for one buyer be worth more to another?

Your sales team knows why customers buy. Your delivery team knows what it takes to do the work profitably. Past proposals show where other buyers took an interest and where the conversation stalled.

A Primitive Map brings those pieces together: what you can do, who buys it, what you depend on and what limits you. Your pricing, sales history and the experience of the people doing the work give that map its detail.

We’re building Primitive Swarm so your team can compare that picture with evidence from a second market and decide whether the same capability could solve a problem there.

02 / The wider system

See your position in the bigger picture.

Your business operates within a moving system of customers, competitors, suppliers, partners, capital, regulation and disruption. A change elsewhere can reshape your opportunity before it appears in your numbers.

Primitive Swarm is designed to connect global research, local knowledge and your internal business context. Understand where you stand, what you depend on, where pressure is building and where your capabilities could create greater value.

From one company to an industry ecosystem. Across Australia, Africa and the markets connecting them, with the country, sector and local expertise each opportunity demands.

A wider view. A clearer position.
A stronger basis for action.

03 / Coordinated intelligence

Your experience directs the work.
The swarm extends your reach.

We’re planning a Company Advisory Panel made up of specialist AI agents. Each would examine the same question from a different perspective, including customers, finance, delivery, people and risk.

For the second market, a customer perspective might point to unmet demand. A delivery perspective might show that serving those buyers requires more support than the price allows. Your team could challenge either view, inspect its evidence and decide what to test.

Your people direct the work and own the decision.

04 / Decisions with substance

On the roadmap

Test the move
before you commit.

Scenario: What price and delivery capacity would make the second market worthwhile? Start with the margin you need. Then vary the price, hours of support and number of buyers to see what would have to be true.

Forecast: If you won the work, when would you expect to be paid? An estimate would need relevant sales, delivery and payment history. Before teams could rely on it, we would need to compare forecasts with actual results and show how far off they can be.

Evidence and follow up

What needs attention?

Suppose your team decides to test the offer with three prospective buyers. Who will speak to them? What would count as enough interest to run a paid pilot? When will you review what they said?

In controlled tests, the team can return to a saved assessment, find the evidence behind it and see what still needs attention: a missing owner, an overdue follow up or a question nobody has answered.

At the review, compare what you expected with what buyers actually said. Record why you will continue, change the offer or stop, so the next person can understand the decision.

05 / Knowledge that travels

Make your best thinking part of everyday work.

Your methods and expertise should travel across the organisation.

We are developing Primitive Swarm to support consistent practice across people, teams, branches and markets, using approved methods, shared knowledge and clear review standards, with room for deliberate local adaptation.

Preserve what works. Retain the reasoning behind it. Give experience and new evidence a governed path to improve it.

Make experience useful beyond the person who holds it.

The vision / A continuing adviser

Give every person a continuing adviser.

A new employee needs guidance. An experienced employee needs relevant context, constructive challenge and support when the work changes.

Our vision is a continuing personal AI agent that begins as an onboarding trainer and develops into a working adviser throughout a person’s time with the business.

Grounded in their role, approved methods and information they are authorised to access, it would help them prepare, practise, ask questions and apply knowledge to real work.

Connected through governed workflows, these agents would also support clearer handoffs between people and teams.

Individual support. Shared standards. Better connected work.

  1. 01 / Onboarding

    Learn the role.

    Guidance grounded in approved methods and the information a person is authorised to access.

  2. 02 / Everyday work

    Apply the knowledge.

    Relevant context and constructive challenge as people prepare, practise and carry out their work.

  3. 03 / Continuing change

    Adapt with support.

    Individual guidance as responsibilities, offers and ways of working evolve.

Planned / Change management

Guide the change,
person by person.

A company can agree on a new direction while its people still need help putting it into practice.

Primitive Swarm’s planned change management capability brings that support to the individual level.

A personal agent would help each person understand why a change matters, what it means for their role and what they need to do next. It would provide relevant examples, guided practice and follow up as new ways of working become familiar.

For sales, that might mean learning a new offer. For delivery, applying a revised method. For finance, understanding new pricing and billing arrangements.

It would also give people a clear way to raise concerns, challenge advice and seek human help. Their feedback can reveal where the change itself needs improvement.

Build understanding. Earn commitment. Help people move forward.

The aim is consistent organisational direction supported by practical, individual guidance, with clear boundaries around coaching privacy and manager visibility.

06 / Planned measurement capabilities

Make AI prove its value.

AI investment needs a business case and evidence that it is delivering.

Primitive Swarm’s planned measurement capabilities connect AI initiatives to agreed baselines, accountable owners and meaningful outcomes:

01

Better decisions

Stronger evidence, clearer alternatives and less avoidable rework.

02

Commercial progress

Opportunities created, qualified prospects, wins and contribution margin.

03

Time to payment

Movement from opportunity through delivery, invoicing and cash collection.

04

Operational performance

Delivery quality, capacity, meeting effectiveness and customer experience.

05

People and change

Time to competence, successful adoption, workload and useful access to expertise.

06

AI effectiveness

Successful task completion, reliability, human review effort and full cost.

Measure what improved, what did not and what else could explain the result. Keep time saved, revenue won, profit and cash received distinct.

If AI is changing your business, you should be able to explain how.

07 / Built around Capital Primitive’s approach

Turn what you know into
what you do next.

Primitive Swarm is being built around Capital Primitive’s approach:

  1. 01Discover
  2. 02Engineer
  3. 03Build & Activate
  4. 04Operate

Understand what is changing. See why it matters. Explore the options. Justify the decision. Assign the action. Guide people through the change. Measure the result.

From a single commercial question to the wider ecosystem, the purpose is the same: help your business put its knowledge to work.

Explore the CP method
