How Long Does It Really Take to Create a Multi-Agent System?
Creating a multi-agent system typically takes 4–16+ months, depending on complexity, domain requirements, and integration depth. Early stages involve requirements definition, architecture design, and data preparation, followed by model selection and agent behavior design. Developing individual agents (for perception, reasoning, execution, collaboration), integrating them, and building communication protocols adds time. Extensive testing, simulation, and safety checks—especially for coordinated multi-agent behaviors—are essential before deployment.
