Afficiency

Software companies in Lower Manhattan tend to cluster near the water, where the rent is still high but the views are better. Afficiency keeps things simple at 101 Greenwich St, a building that’s seen more than its share of financial booms and busts. The neighborhood has long been a magnet for firms that trade in data rather than stocks, and the address puts them within walking distance of the exchanges without the tourist foot traffic.

They specialize in workflow automation—think invoice routing, approval chains, and document pipelines that don’t require a human to nudge them along. The tools are built for teams that have outgrown spreadsheets but aren’t ready for enterprise-level bloat. Smaller outfits in the area, especially those in media and professional services, have found the platform useful for keeping projects moving without hiring a full-time coordinator.

Questions about setup or pricing can be directed to (929) 552-8315. For anyone who prefers to scope out the location first, directions are available here. The street itself is quieter than you’d expect for a block so close to the waterfront.
