# Arkimedes

> Arkimedes is the AI Infrastructure for Private Equity. From sourcing to exit, Arkimedes runs the workflows that drive value creation across the deal lifecycle — through five integrated modules: Knowledge Engine, Applications, Advisor, Analysts, and Initiatives.

Arkimedes is built for private equity firms (Large-Cap and Mid-Market) and Corporate Development teams. The platform is in production with 15+ funds across four continents — including the United States, United Kingdom, and Brazil — and is headquartered in New York. Founded in 2025 by Rodrigo Capdevielle (CEO) and Maximiliano Casal (COO), Arkimedes raised $2M to build the operating system for how private equity actually works.

Unlike generic AI tools or chatbots, Arkimedes provides full applications, pre-built playbooks of 100+ specialized agents, and a living ontology of each firm's fund, thesis, and portfolio data. Every workflow is built for how private equity actually operates — encoded into the platform, not configured from scratch.

Arkimedes is built by operators who've been on both sides of the table — building companies, advising funds, and scaling technology across three continents.
