Built on Microsoft AI and automation

PRIME agents are built on Microsoft technologies. They run on the same Microsoft platform as Microsoft's own agents and add operational workflows to the agents Microsoft provides as standard.

Frequently Asked Questions About PRIME

What is PRIME?

PRIME is 9 Dots Consulting's portfolio of AI agents for business operations. Each agent supports a defined workflow in areas such as customer engagement, finance, procurement, inventory, sales and production.

How are PRIME agents different from Microsoft Copilot agents?

Microsoft provides ready-made agents across Dynamics 365 and Microsoft 365. PRIME agents are proprietary agents built by 9 Dots on the same Microsoft platform. They add operational workflows to Microsoft's standard agents, such as supplier risk and material shortage monitoring, and they work with other systems, including SAP Business One. Jumpstart ERP includes both kinds.

Do we need to replace our ERP to use PRIME?

No. PRIME works alongside what you already run, including Microsoft Dynamics 365, SAP, Oracle, Cegid Retail, legacy systems and custom applications. It adds automation to selected workflows without a full ERP replacement. Integration depends on the data access and interfaces your systems offer.

Is PRIME available for SAP?

Yes. PRIME has live agents for SAP Business One. Agents for SAP S/4HANA are in development.

Can we buy one agent or a whole Hub?

Either. You can buy one agent for a single process or a complete Hub of related agents for a broader function. You can start with one agent and add more agents or Hubs as your needs grow.

What does 80% pre-built and 20% configured mean?

Each PRIME agent starts as a pre-built foundation designed for its task. We configure the remaining 20% around your systems, data, business rules and approval controls, so the agent fits how your team works.

Does a person stay in control?

Yes. Human review can be included wherever judgement, approval or accountability is required. You decide which actions PRIME can automate and which need approval.

Can PRIME read from and write to our ERP?

Where the right integrations and permissions are in place, PRIME can read approved information and write authorised data back to your ERP or business application.

How does PRIME protect our business data?

PRIME uses approved integrations, user permissions and Microsoft enterprise security capabilities. We define data access, permitted actions and security controls during solution design.

How long does implementation take and what does it cost?

We start by defining the workflow, data, integrations, business rules and expected outcome. Timing and cost depend on the agent, process complexity, data readiness, integration needs and expected usage. We then provide a defined scope, delivery plan and commercial proposal.
