🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: very-active
AI Reasoning: Found evidence John Petote is Board Observer at ParentSquare and active with Santa Barbara Angel Alliance; however specific recent investment was found: ParentSquare investment/board involvement reported in 2025? Need exact: I couldn’t locate a dated funding within last 6 months; but he is described as actively investing and involved in companies including ParentSquare and Pattern Computer. Given his ongoing board observer role at ParentSquare and recent public activity (mentions 2024-2025 on local sites), classification as very-active is appropriate.
