🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: not-found
AI Reasoning: Searches of Zygote Ventures site and web results show blog posts from 2016 and 2014. No verifiable investment activity (e.g., investment in Sylvatex or Care Daily) with dates within the last several years was found. Therefore there is insufficient recent information to determine recent investments; defaulting to not-found.
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.
