HI•RO•CO is a Multi-Agent Orchestration (MAO) software development company pioneering AI coordination solutions for enterprise automation and operational harmony.
What makes multi-agent orchestration transformative? Unlike basic automation that executes predefined tasks, our orchestration approach acts as both composer and conductor, ensuring each agent performs the right action at precisely the right time.
Through our phased process – Ingest • Plan • Dispatch • Adapt – we transform operational complexity into orchestrated intelligence. Our MAO technology delivers resource optimisation and operational AI planning that doesn't offer statistical "best guesses" but mathematically guarantees optimal solutions that adapt in real-time.
Our MARIA Architecture (Multi-Agent Resource Intelligence Architecture) serves defence, transport, logistics, and industrial automation sectors. This comprehensive solution unifies AI-powered planning and dispatch, providing complete operational control with unparalleled visibility through intuitive tools, security, interfacing and robust integration capabilities.
Through our human-centered AI approach, we enhance rather than replace human expertise, creating collaborative intelligence that amplifies decision-making capabilities. Our mission is to enable businesses to make better resource decisions faster, simpler, and more effectively—transforming complex coordination into intuitive operational harmony.

Founder
I am the founder and managing director of a startup based in Sydney that is building a suite of advanced tools that optimise how humans and robots interact and collaborate.
I have a doctorate in computer science that I obtained from the University of New South Wales in 2022. My dissertation was titled, "Episodic Memory for Cognitive Robots in Dynamic, Unstructured Environments". The premise of the research was to train robots to distinguish between different types of events by embedding contextual cues, that a robot can observe, into an event recall policy.
