Coworking team brainstorming in modern office - Company culture and collaboration

Archie began with a question: Why is building software still so painful, even for experts?

Albert Santalo speaking at a tech event - Founder of Archie

"After decades as a software engineer, management consultant, and 3-time venture-backed entrepreneur, I realized that code isn’t the hard part — it’s the thousands of decisions that come before it. Most projects collapse under the weight of poor definition, misalignment, ambiguity and weak communications.

We created Archie to fix that — to bring structure and clarity to the front of the process, using natural language and intelligent systems, Archie turns intent into architecture. It’s not just an AI co-pilot, it’s a new way of thinking about how software gets defined, designed, and delivered."

We're reinventing how software is built, from idea to execution.

Our mission is to make software creation faster, smarter, and more approachable for everyone. We're rethinking how it's defined, designed, built, and run. With Archie, development becomes a process of clarity, not chaos.

Finally, a smarter way to build.

For years, we searched for a smarter way to build software. Low- and no-code tools brought speed but lacked flexibility. Then generative AI changed everything, enabling machines to write real code, combining speed with power. It was a leap in fluency, but fluency alone wasn’t enough.

We needed reasoning, structure, and collaboration.

We chased a smarter way to build. Visual tools were fast but limited. Then generative AI brought real coding power speed and flexibility combined. But fluency wasn’t enough. We needed reasoning, structure, and collaboration. That’s where agentic systems change the game.

The brand behind the mission.

Archie isn’t just a name, it’s a statement. Like an architect, it shapes vision into structure. In 2025, we acquired archie.com from Archie Comics to match the ambition. Not a side project, but a new way to build software with clarity, purpose, and staying power.
