🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: very-active

AI Reasoning: Search results show Howard Morgan made investments in 2025: Apptronik (Series A, Feb 2025) and listings indicating Oct 2025 investments (CurbWaste, HavocAI). The most recent confirmed investment is Feb 2025 (Apptronik) which is within 6-9 months from Nov 1, 2025, but other entries indicate Oct 2025 investments (within 1 month). Therefore his last known investment is less than 6 months ago, so classify as 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.
