## About

Based in California, US, and co-founded by Rob Mee (CEO) and Matthew Work (COO) in 2022, Mechanical Orchard, Inc. operates as an information technology company supporting enterprises off legacy systems and onto cloud-based applications. In August 2024, new investor GV led a USD 50 million in series B funding for Mechanical Orchard, Inc.

The company is a GenAI (generative artificial intelligence) native technology firm dedicated to modernizing critical legacy applications into modern, cloud-ready solutions. Mechanical Orchard’s approach begins with a thorough understanding and dissection of the legacy system, identifying data flows, and isolating components for modernization. Each component is then replicated in a secure cloud environment, rigorously tested, and seamlessly integrated with the existing system. This iterative process ensures minimal disruption, reduces the risk associated with modernization efforts, radically improves commercial capabilities, including faster speed to market, enhanced research as well as development capabilities, and eased integration of new revenue models.

The company plans to utilize the August 2024 funding to support the advancing of Mechanical Orchard, Inc.'s research and development program, including the application of AI to enhance the speed and efficiency of transitions.
