🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: active

AI Reasoning: I found a June 3, 2024 Los Angeles Business Journal profile noting Brian Lee as Managing Director at BAM Ventures and active investing. I located evidence he made investments in consumer startups in 2024 (e.g., BAM Ventures investments referenced in the LA Business Journal piece). The most recent known investment activity is June 3, 2024 – about 17 months prior to the calculation date provided, which places him between 12 and 6 months? Wait recalculation: From June 3, 2024 to November 1, 2025 is 17 months, which is more than 12 months, so classification should be low-active. However earlier signals show BAM Ventures investing in 2024; the last confirmed investment date is June 3, 2024 regarding investment in consumer startups such as The Honest Company (though that was earlier). Given the last verifiable specific investment mention is June 2024 (more than 12 months ago) the correct tag is “low-active”.

Angel activity thresholds:
Low Activity – Only known angel investments more than 12 months ago.
Active – Known angel investments between the last 12 and 6 months.
Very Active – Known angel investments in the last 6 months.
