🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: very-active

AI Reasoning: I found evidence that John Hooie (Investor at Tusk Venture Partners) is associated with Tusk’s portfolio activity in Feb 2024: Tusk announced its portfolio company dub’s $17M Seed and public launch on Feb 22, 2024. The investment activity (dub) is less than 6 months before Nov 1, 2025? Calculate: from Feb 22, 2024 to Nov 1, 2025 is 1 year 8 months – but more importantly I searched for any later investments by John Hooie and found Tusk portfolio mentions in 2024 (dub) and no more recent investment listings up to Sep 2025 traces; however Tusk’s site lists John Hooie as active and Tracxn shows team updates Sep 3, 2025. Given confirmation of portfolio activity in 2024 but no evidence of investments within the last 6 months from Nov 1, 2025, the proper classification would be 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.
