PARTNERSHIP
ROADMAP

From Discovery to
Indispensable

Our 5-phase strategy for becoming essential infrastructure in the Fetch.ai ecosystem. Every partnership milestone is tracked, measured, and transparent.

The Strategy

Five phases designed to systematically build trust, demonstrate value, and create deep integration that makes the partnership permanent.

1

Security

Build trust

2

Developer

Prove capability

3

Infrastructure

Deploy services

4

Core Partner

Deep integration

5

Indispensable

Permanent value

Why This Matters

Stigmergic coordination solves the fundamental problem of multi-agent systems

Without Stigmergy

  • x Agents duplicate work and conflict
  • x Central coordinator becomes bottleneck
  • x N^2 communication complexity
  • x No emergent intelligence

With Stigmergy

  • + Agents coordinate through environment
  • + No central point of failure
  • + O(1) communication via pheromones
  • + Collective intelligence emerges

"The goal is not to be a partner. The goal is to become infrastructure so essential that removing us would be more costly than keeping us."

Partnership Strategy Principle

Follow the Journey

Track our progress as we build the coordination layer for autonomous agents.
