🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: very-active

AI Reasoning: PR Newswire reports Polycam raised an $18M Series A on Feb 7, 2024 with participation from angel investor Chad Hurley. The most recent known investment date (Feb 7, 2024) is less than 6 months prior to Nov 1, 2025? Calculating difference: from Feb 7, 2024 to Nov 1, 2025 is more than 12 months (approx 21 months). However additional investments: I also found evidence of involvement with Fantasy Life in July 2025 (PR Newswire Jul 7, 2025 mentions Fantasy Life seed close) indicating Chad Hurley participated; that July 7, 2025 date is under 6 months before Nov 1, 2025 (approx 3.8 months). Therefore the correct classification is very-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.
