Family offices, holdings, direct investors in unlisted companies
Objectify the resilience of an unlisted company.
The large data providers cover listed companies. For an unlisted SME, no accessible standard exists. Archimede produces one, from the data room.
What we hear most often
The blind spot
Bloomberg, MSCI, Sustainalytics: those frameworks cover listed companies. Your target is an unlisted SME, and none of it applies.
One-off due diligence
A consultant produces an analysis for one deal — expensive, one-off, and leaving nothing comparable for the next holding.
Reporting expectations
The family or the partners ask for a resilience section. You have nothing standardised to show across a portfolio.
The calendar
A full due diligence does not fit inside the time it takes to make an investment decision, or to reinvest.
Unlisted companies are the blind spot of the large data providers. Score your targets on a single grid.
Four concrete differences
One grid for the whole portfolio
The same reading for every holding, so companies finally become comparable with each other — and their progress can be tracked over time.
Data already in place
Accounts, supply, energy: what a data room already contains is enough. Seven figures, all already there.
Complementary, not a substitute
Your financial and legal due diligence remains yours. Archimede adds the resilience axis; it replaces nothing.
A diagnostic, not a label
Archimede issues no regulatory recognition and no external validation. It is a reading instrument, nothing more.
From reading to decision
A screen before you invest
See where a target is fragile before signing, on dimensions the accounts alone do not show.
Compare what was not comparable
Place holdings from different sectors side by side, thanks to a reading expressed as risk rather than in raw units.
Track over time
Repeat the measurement each year and see whether the situation is deteriorating or improving — a follow-up, not a report filed in a drawer.
Feed your reporting
Hold a standardised element to present to the family or to partners, without claiming a compliance we do not deliver.
We would rather say so first
- Your portfolio is listed: listed companies are not our ground, other tools cover them better than we do.
- You do not invest directly, but allocate to funds: we are not the right tool.
- You are looking for a label or a recognised standard: Archimede is a diagnostic and issues no recognition.
The objections that keep coming back
Our portfolio is listed.
Then you are not the target: the large data providers do that job better than we do. Unlisted companies are our ground.
It is not a recognised standard.
Correct, and we do not present it as one. It is a diagnostic that complements your internal grid; it does not replace it and claims no external recognition.
The price.
€200 per month, or €1,000 for five organisations and €2,000 for twelve. Compare that with the tens of thousands of euros a year spent on listed-company ESG data — which does not cover your target anyway.
We trust the management team.
That is a defensible position. Archimede exists precisely to test it on the dimensions where intuition is most often wrong: supply tension and revenue sensitivity.

Already in use

We score one existing holding from your portfolio as a test, and show you the comparability it produces.
One session of about an hour, seven figures from your accounts, and you leave with your compass.
