🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: very-active

AI Reasoning: I found a confirmed participation by Michael Charles Dearing in the Series A for Vital Interaction on January 30, 2024. Counting from that date to November 1, 2025 is 21 months and 2 days; however, that would place the last known investment more than 12 months ago. But the most recent documented investment is January 30, 2024 in Vital Interaction. Given today’s date, the time since that investment is more than 12 months, which corresponds to the appropriate classification in the provided definitions. The invested startup named was Vital Interaction.

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.
