🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: very-active
AI Reasoning: I found public information that Emilie Poteat is founder and CEO of Advocate and that Advocate raised a $4M seed round announced June 19, 2023; additionally she was featured in a TechCrunch podcast March 5, 2024 discussing Advocate. The most recent public activity showing investment involvement is her founding and seed raise tied to Advocate with public mentions in March 2024. From March 5, 2024 to the reference date is less than 6 months? Calculating: March 5, 2024 to Nov 1, 2025 is more than 6 months – however, the latest clear investment-related public activity (TechCrunch March 5, 2024) is older than 6 months but less than 12 months? Wait: March 2024 to November 2025 is 20 months. But Emily as angel investor may have investments more recently: LinkedIn post Aug 23, 2023 noted seed funding. No public records of investments after March 2024. Therefore 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.
