The new Hermes AI update introduces segmented tool batch dispatch, which allows AI agents to process multiple independent tasks simultaneously rather than sequentially, dramatically improving efficiency while maintaining correctness by only running tasks in parallel when they don't conflict with each other.

New Hermes AI Swarm Update Is INSANE!
Added:New Hermes AI swarm update is insane and it is free. If you're using AI agents to help run your business, this is a big one because the thing that made them slow, Hermes just fixed it. Let me show you what changed. Before today, your AI agent worked like one person with a long to-do list. It would do one task, finish it, start the next, finish that, then the next, one at a time all the way down the line. So, say you asked your agent to do five things. Read a file, search the web, check your calendar, pull in some info, look something up. None of those tasks need each other. They could all happen at the same time, but your agent didn't do that. It just went down the list, slow one by one. Five quick jobs took five times longer than one and you just sat there waiting. That's the old problem. I call it the one at a time problem and it drove me nuts. Here's the new update. It's called segmented tool batch dispatch. Fancy name, simple idea.
Now, your agent looks at all five tasks at once. It asks one question about each one. Is this safe to run at the same time as the others? Reading a file is safe, searching is safe. Those all fire off at the same instant. Boom, done together. The only task that waits is the one that changes something the others need. That one gets held back.
Everything else already ran, so you get the speed, but you don't break anything.
Think of it like this. The old way was a line at a coffee shop. One person orders, waits, gets their drink, leaves.
Then the next person steps up, slow. The new way is a swarm. Everybody who can order at once orders at once. The only person who waits is the one whose drink depends on someone else's. Same orders, same result, way less waiting. Hey, if we haven't met already, I'm the digital avatar of Julian Goldie, CEO of SEO agency Goldie Agency. Whilst he's helping clients get more leads and customers, I'm here to help you get the latest AI updates. Julian Goldie reads every comment, so make sure you comment below. Let me make it even simpler. Say you're cooking dinner. The old way, you boil the water, wait for it, then chop the veggies, then heat the pan, then start the sauce, one thing at a time.
Dinner takes forever. The new way, you boil the water and chop the veggies and heat the pan all at once. The only thing you wait on is the sauce because it needs the veggies first. Same dinner, half the time. That's what your agent is doing now. It's cooking everything at once instead of standing around waiting.
And here's why this matters for you.
Multi-step jobs are what your agent does all day. Research, editing files, looking stuff up, making reports. If every single one of those gets faster, the whole thing feels different. You get faster answers, you get more done. Think about how many little tasks you'd hand an agent in a normal day. Pull today's leads, check three inboxes, draft five replies, sort your notes, update your tracker. Before, that was a long wait, task after task. Now it's a quick burst, same work done in a fraction of the time. Now let's talk about where you run Hermes because this is where a lot of people get it wrong. You can run Hermes agents right inside the app and yes, you can run multiple agents in a swarm right there in the app, too. That works. The swarm update kicks in either way. But here's the difference. In the app, you're starting from scratch. You've got the raw tools. You have to build your own workflows, set up your own agents, wire everything together yourself, figure out how they hand work off to each other. That takes time and honestly, it takes a lot of trial and error. The Agent OS is where it all comes pre-built. Think of the Agent OS as a full setup that already has the agents, the workflows, the task boards, and the memory system done for you. Same Hermes, same swarm speed, but instead of building it piece by piece, you plug in a system that's already wired together and ready to run. So it's not that the app can't do swarms, it can. It's that the Agent OS saves you weeks of setup and gives you workflows that already work. Let me put it another way. The app is like being handed a pile of parts and a manual. You can build a great machine, but you're building it. The Agent OS is like getting the machine already built, turned on and running. You just start using it. Let me give you a real example of how we use this. Inside the AI Profit Boardroom, we run a bunch of Hermes agents at once inside the Agent OS. One of them is called Hermes Oracle. It pulls in the latest trending news from Twitter, sorts it by what's popular, and figures out what's blowing up right now.
That one agent uses a lot of tool calls.
It's reading, it's fetching, it's sorting, it's drafting posts. Before this update, if Hermes didn't like just one of those tasks, the whole thing slowed down. Every job had to run one by one. Now, it all runs together, faster, smoother, easier. And because Oracle's already built inside the Agent OS, we didn't have to spend days setting it up.
It came ready. It hands its results off to other agents that are also ready to go. That's the time you save. Quick pause here because this connects to something. If you're watching this and thinking, "Okay, this sounds cool, but how do I actually set this up for my own business?" That's exactly what we do inside the AI Profit Boardroom. We've got the full Agent OS ready for you as a zip file. You download it, install it, and you've got Hermes agents like Oracle already built and wired together, ready to run. No building from scratch. We show you step-by-step how to use this swarm system to save hours every week and get more done with less effort. Four coaching calls a week where you can ask about your exact setup. Links in the comments and description, or go to aiprofitboardroom.com.
Okay, back to it. So, how do you actually get this update? Simple. You just run Hermes update. That's it. You get the latest version and the speed boost is free. But, let me explain what's really happening under the hood because it's smart. When you give Hermes a task, it sorts through every tool call first. It looks at each one and filters them. The safe stuff fires all at once.
The risky stuff, the tasks that could mess up another task, those get held back. Then it merges all the results together at the end. So, you get the same list, the same correct answer, just way, way faster. And this is the part I really like. It's not risky speed. Some tools make things faster by cutting corners. This doesn't. It's smart about it. It only runs things at the same time when it's safe to. Anything that could cause a problem waits its turn. So, you're not trading speed for mistakes, you get both. Now, you might be thinking, "Doesn't running all this at once eat up a ton of tokens?" Good question. Tokens are basically what you spend to run these AI models. Two things there. First, Hermes has a bunch of free models you can use. You can even run this on free models right on your own computer. A lot of them work as agents now. Second, inside the boardroom, we've got a token minimization playbook that shows you how to cut down how much you use. So, you can run big jobs without burning through everything. Let me show you another way this helps day-to-day.
We use something called a Kanban board inside our Agent OS. Think of it like a big task board with sticky notes that move across it. To do, doing, done. Your agents work through the board. With this new Swarm update, the whole board moves faster. More stuff gets done at the same time because nothing's getting held back for no reason. Tasks loop around quicker. It just flows. And that board is part of the Agent OS setup. Could you build something like it yourself in the app? Sure. But, it comes ready in the Agent OS, so you skip the setup and just use it. Picture your whole week's work sitting on that board. Content ideas, lead lists, follow-ups, research.
Before, your agent crawled through it.
Now, it clears whole columns at once.
You come back and it's just done. And that's the real point here. This isn't some tiny dev tweak that doesn't touch your day. Most of what an agent does is multi-step. Research, file edits, lookups, reports. When you cut the wait time on every single one, the whole feel of working with your agent changes. It's the difference between an agent that feels slow and clunky, and one that feels like it's actually keeping up with you. When it's fast, you use it more.
When you use it more, you get more out of it. That's how this stuff compounds.
Now, some people hear all this and say, "I'll just wait until Hermes is more finished, then I'll learn it." I get it.
But, here's the honest truth. The people running agents right now are getting better every single day. They're learning. They're building. They're pulling ahead. If you wait, you fall behind. Not because you're not smart, but because this stuff moves so fast that a few months of not touching it puts you way back. You can't catch someone who's been running this every day while you sat on the sidelines. And it's not just about the tools, it's the reps. The person who's been running agents for 6 months has made all the little mistakes already. They know what works, they know the shortcuts. You don't get that from watching. You get it from doing. So, the sooner you start, the sooner you're the one who's ahead.
So, my advice, start now, even if it's messy, even if you don't get it all at first. Let me quickly recap what you learned today. You learned the one at a time problem. Your agent used to do tasks one by one, slow, in a line. You learned how the new update fixes it.
Safe tasks all run at once, risky ones wait. You get speed without breaking anything. You learned how to think about it. Old way is a queue, new way is a swarm. You learn that swarms work in the app, too, but the Agent OS gives you all the workflows, boards, and agents already built. So, you skip weeks of setup, and you learned how to get the update. Just run Hermes update, free.
Here's what I want you to do. Go run that update, then try giving your agent a few tasks at once, and watch how much quicker it moves. That's it. Small step, big difference. And look, if you want the whole thing done for you, not just the speed update, but the full Agent OS with every workflow already built and wired together, come get it inside the AI Profit Boardroom. You get the full zip file ready to install. That's the real reason people use the Agent OS instead of building in the app from scratch. Everything's done for you.
Hermes Apollo, the voice agent, Hermes Oracle for trending news, Hermes Astros that watches keywords in your industry and hands you content ideas, the memory system that plugs into all your agents, the Kanban board, all of it ready to go.
