Company Overview: 

Archimydes is a fully owned venture of Root NYC. Root NYC is a New York City-based technology company that leverages code velocity to attain a competitive advantage. We believe that for all effective purposes code velocity, like crop yield in the agrarian age, and factory output in the industrial age, will be the primary determiner of winners vs. losers in the information age. We look to partner with, invest in, and build platforms and companies built around this central premise. View Our Thesis.

Archimydes is the first platform that we have built with this central notion of code velocity in mind. From the point of view of our customers the goal of Archimydes is to do for code what AWS has done for infrastructure - abstract away development complexity whether it comes to managing developers or understanding code. From the point of view of developers our goal is to provide a platform through which developers can consistently earn a globally competitive income or side income.
