Why we exist
We ran the centres. We watched the same thing every time.
Plenty of activity. Pilots launched, people trained, use cases identified. Little of it stuck. The centres with the most AI motion were rarely the ones moving.
Cobalt Orbit exists to fix that. A GCC sits on a structural advantage almost no one else has: Volume, Talent and Mandate. We help you turn it into AI that ships: a clear diagnosis, one specific move, and the team capability to keep going after we leave.
Outcomes over activity
A process that went from forty hours to eight is an outcome. A deck of pilots is not.
Clarity over ambition
A specific outcome, a named owner, an agreed definition of done. Get those and you move.
Practitioners over theorists
Three decades inside the system. Named cases, real numbers, no hype.
Capability you keep
We build the muscle and hand it over. You are left with capability, not a dependency on us.
Why Cobalt Orbit
Three decades inside the system. Now on your side of the table.
Practitioners, not theorists
We've run the centres we now advise: Candescent, ANZ, Goldman Sachs, Intuit and Symphony Services.
GCC-specific
The HQ relationship, the captive mandate, the perception gap. We speak the only language that matters here.
Founder-led delivery
The people who pitch are the people who do the work. No junior pyramid.
Yours to keep
We build capability and hand it over. You keep the muscle, not a dependency on us.
Leadership
Built by people who've sat in your chair.
