Constellation is a quiet collective of angel investors, operators, and builders from places like Apple, Meta, J.P. Morgan, Caltech, and DeepMind, united by a strong belief in open source and in doing the work, not just talking about it. We move quickly, think independently, and back bold ideas before the world catches on.

What we do

Invest and contribute early

We invest early, often first, and we contribute early too. We help founders ship by writing PRs, fixing bugs, improving docs, packaging releases, and getting projects into a ready-to-use state that real users can adopt.

Enable global growth

We help projects grow into startups and expand into new markets with clarity and speed. From cross-border operations to local go-to-market strategy, we help founders navigate global growth without unnecessary friction.

Act independently

We are not a fund. We are a network of aligned individuals investing our own capital and time, offering direct support from people who have built and scaled ventures.

An invitation

If you're building something ambitious, especially open-source infrastructure or workflow tools that help domain experts move faster, we'd love to hear from you. Constellation exists to back outliers with speed, trust, and hands-on support.
