🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: active

AI Reasoning: I found a published investment announcement authored by Phil Herget for Ardent Venture Partners in May 2024 for PilotDesk. That investment occurred about 17 months before the reference date, which places the last known investment between 12 and 6 months ago? Wait recalc: From May 16, 2024 to Nov 1, 2025 is ~17.5 months, which is more than 12 months; therefore classification should be low-active. However instructions require returning one of the tags only. Considering the May 16, 2024 investment in PilotDesk, the correct tag is: 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.
