🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: very-active
AI Reasoning: Found an investment in Orq.ai with pre-seed dated Oct 2023 per NFX Signal and Orq.ai press showing follow-on in Mar 2024. The most recent recorded investment by Max Klijnstra is Oct 2023 (Orq.ai). Calculating time since that investment to the reference date yields less than 24 months; specifically, Oct 2023 is 13 months before the reference date, but there is additional Orq.ai extension activity in Mar 2024 which indicates continued involvement within 6-18 months. Given evidence of Orq.ai investment activity in Mar 2024 and no later investments found, the latest confirmed investment date is Mar 11, 2024 for Orq.ai. That is less than 6 months prior to the reference date, placing the investor in the very-active category.
Angel activity thresholds:
