🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: very-active
AI Reasoning: I found reporting that Basis Theory raised a $33M Series B in October 2025 with continued support from Kindred Ventures, and mentions of Kindred participation in other 2025 deals (e.g., a 29 Oct 2025 seed). Kanyi Maqubela is a Managing Partner at Kindred and is named as lead/participant for portfolio companies including Basis Theory. Since there is documented investment activity in October 2025 (less than 6 months prior), this classifies as very-active. The startup mentioned is Basis Theory.
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.
