In 2025, 86% of USAID's 6,200 awards were terminated.
Core trick
Ten agents race four financing scenarios and attack the draft with five adversarial reviewer personas, tracing each figure to its API call.
Description
In 2025, 86% of USAID's 6,200 awards were terminated. Global Fund Replenishment 8 fell $5.36B short. The Lancet projects 9.4 million additional deaths by 2030. What collapsed wasn't drugs or supply chains — it was the labour layer: the proposal writers, M&E analysts, and indicator triangulators who turn raw data into fundable programmes. Jhpiego cut 1,975 staff across 44 countries. Bill Gates told Congress the Gates Foundation cannot backfill.
SwarmAid replaces that layer with a swarm of 10 specialised agents — running on Opus 4.7, Sonnet 4.6, and Haiku 4.5 — orchestrated the way a real planning team works. EpiProfiler and LitReviewer run concurrently, pulling live data from WHO GHO, DHIS2, the Malaria Atlas Project, OpenAlex, and the Global Fund Data Service. SustainabilityAdvisor races four financing scenarios in parallel — Global Fund-only, bilateral donors, domestic resource mobilisation, and blended — and selects the strongest five-year trajectory. ProposalWriter drafts a 40-page modular concept note. Five adversarial personas — a TRP reviewer, NMCP officer, investigative journalist, LFA auditor, and biostatistician — attack the draft simultaneously. A Receipt Wall traces every numeric figure back to its source API call.
The system is not locked to one country, donor, or disease. The demo runs on Malawi malaria with the Global Fund, but the architecture supports any country and any funding modality — including domestic health budget planning. Human-in-the-loop controls (Pause / Resume / Stop) are wired end-to-end, so a ministry official is always in control.

But there's something we can do. In 2025, **86% of USAID's 6,200 awards were terminated**. Global Fund Replenishment 8 fell **$5.36 billion short**. Gavi: $2.5B short. WHO: $2.5B short. *The Lancet* projects **9.4 million additional deaths by 2030**. What collapsed wasn't drugs or supply chains. It was the **labour layer** — the proposal writers, M&E analysts, epidemiologists, and indicator triangulators who turn raw data into fundable programmes. Jhpiego cut 1,975 staff across 44 countries. Chemonics laid off 750. FHI 360 cut ~1,200. Bill Gates told Congress that even at $8B/year, the Gates Foundation cannot backfill. **But here's what AI can do.** The knowledge those consultants carried — how to structure a Global Fund concept note, how to reconcile WHO national figures against DHIS2 facility data, how to model a 5-year financing trajectory, how to anticipate what a TRP reviewer will kill — that knowledge can be encoded, deployed, and run at a fraction of the cost. SwarmAid is a proof of concept that the planning layer can be rebuilt with agents. --- ## What it is A swarm of Opus 4.7 / Sonnet 4.6 / Haiku 4.5 specialists that works the wa
