Hey 👋

I am a General Partner at venture firm Runa Capital, where I focus on investing in early-stage startups building OSS, dev-focused, and infrastructure software. My favorite areas of next-gen infra include data, AI/ML, cloud, security, observability, and enterprise suites (like CRM and ERP). Some open source startups we invested in:

  • Nginx, the most popular web server in the world (exited in 2019)
  • MariaDB, relational database founded by MySQL's creator (exited in 2024)
  • Twenty, next-gen CRM platform, open-source alternative to Salesforce (thesis)
  • Keep, next-gen alert management and AIOps platform for enterprises (thesis)
  • OpenReplay, session replay and product analytics suite
  • PandasAI, platform to query your data in natural language
  • Evidently, the most popular observability framework for ML models

Since 2020, I have been publishing the Runa Open Source Startup (ROSS) Index, where we highlight the top 20 trending open source startups (by GitHub star growth) every quarter.

As a VC and a philanthropist, I am strongly interested in Open Source, and I take it seriously.

    I believe that openly sharing donations, no matter how small, can have a greater impact than keeping them private. As it can inspire others to donate too.
