🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: very-active
AI Reasoning: I found Network Ventures’ portfolio and mentions that Jeff Maters invested in startups including Giggster and League of Play. I located active fund and portfolio pages for Network Ventures and links to AngelList showing ongoing activity; the firm lists recent investments and a rolling fund launch indicating investments within the past 6 months. Given evidence of recent investments (including League of Play/Giggster) and the firm’s continued fundraising and portfolio updates, the most appropriate classification is that the investor’s last known investment occurred 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.
