AI has broken the startup model. Long gone are the days that founders need to raise $100M+ and hire hundreds of engineers to build a world-class product. Now a handful of experienced builders paired with powerful AI systems can easily build a category defining full stack service companies. For the last year, I’ve been quietly (or not so much) building Infinity Constellation to take advantage of this new paradigm. As the first AI-native holdco, Infinity launches lean, fast-moving service businesses that generate revenue immediately. Born from Francis Pedraza's vision at Invisible Technologies, we’re today announcing $17M in total funding led by Maria Palma at Freestyle Capital, along with BACKED VC, Deepwater Asset Management, ImagineCo and BY Venture Partners, including awesome investors like Charlie Songhurst Howard Morgan, Will Thorndike and Namek T. Zu'bi. We already have 8 incredible companies generating $7M+ ARR and growing fast. Many thanks to Alex Konrad at Upstarts Media for telling our story so well: https://lnkd.in/g2VJUyZf
Brennan Pothetes, it's wild how you still need to nail the fundamentals, right? Lean implementation just makes so much sense when AI's doing the heavy lifting. How are you measuring the operational impacts across your eight companies?

This is a fascinating perspective on the new startup model and the power of lean AI-native ventures! It really highlights how quickly companies can scale now. As you grow, having a solid legal foundation that scales with you is also incredibly important. We at Primum Law Group are hosting a free, practical workshop on June 19th called 'From Confused to Compliant.'Our attorneys will be helping early-stage AI founders understand what "compliance" really means, build IP and data rights protections that scale, and navigate global AI regulations. Just thought I'd share in case it's relevant: https://primumlaw.com/workshop-for-ai-founders/
This is awesome Brennan Pothetes! Congrats!!
