About the Fund

StarMeet Capital: patient capital and an advisor pool in the making.

We are building an early-stage fund that invests up to $500,000 in dividend businesses over a 30-year horizon. We have no open deals and no portfolio yet: the first investments are planned for 2027–2028. We are assembling the advisor club in advance, so that we enter companies as ready-made pairs.

The fund's position

What the fund puts money into, and on what terms.

This is the same model the fund sets out for founders on its own site. For an advisor it matters from the other side: this is how the companies you will work with are built, and where your share comes from.

01

Investing in people, not in ideas.

The fund backs founding teams aged 18–30 with a check of up to $500,000 for 7.5% of equity. The founder keeps 92.5% of the capital and 100% of operational control: no one can force them to sell the company.

02

The core team's compatibility is calculated before the money.

65% of startups die from founder conflict. A calculation on official NASA JPL ephemerides scores team compatibility across 300+ metrics before the deal — the same method that will match you with your founder.

03

Demand first, check second.

42% of companies die because nobody needs their product. Before the contract, the team spends 2–4 weeks testing its core hypothesis alongside an advisor — and only then is the investment agreement signed.

04

Thirty years instead of five.

In the fund's model 74% of income comes from dividends, not from selling the stake. For thirty years the founder has the right to buy the fund's share back out of profit, and pays the fund nothing until the first profitable year.

The StarMeet Capital model

An advisor for 3%, who runs the project hands-on

This is the frame of the deal. The exact wording — how profit is calculated, the payout schedule, the buyback price — is fixed in the contract and talked through in person, before signing.

Your 3% is part of the same economics, not a payment on top.

Together the fund and the advisor take 7.5% of equity and 7.5% of net profit. Of that, 1.5% and 1.5% belong to the advisor; the rest is the fund's share. The founder keeps 92.5% of the equity and 85% of the company's economics.

01

No fixed fees.

Neither the fund nor the advisor charges for consulting, and neither is paid anything until the company starts earning.

02

One package instead of two negotiations.

The advisor enters the deal together with the fund, so the founder never has to bargain separately over a mentoring stake — and you never have to find first clients through acquaintances.

03

Your income comes from the same place as the founder's.

Dividends are distributed from the first profitable year — to the founder, the fund and the advisor at the same time. That leaves nothing to argue about over priorities.

Who stands behind this.

The fund is run by an entrepreneur from the real economy, not a manager of other people's money. The compatibility method is his own practice, developed into a working product.

01

Why the club is built in advance.

We do not believe in matching mentors in a hurry once the check is signed. The advisor register is built beforehand, so that when a relevant project appears the pair is already vetted and ready to work.

02

What you do before the deals.

You go through a trial compatibility analysis, take part in calibrating the method and agree your industry preferences. There is no unpaid operational work before a contract is signed.

03

Where the full terms are.

Everything the fund promises founders is published on the fund's own site: deal economics, the calculation platform, the investment pipeline and the team. The club does not rewrite those terms — it shows them from the advisor's side.
