🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: low-active
AI Reasoning: Searches of AgFunder and AgFunderNews and related press up through Feb 2025 show Rob Leclerc quoted on industry trends but do not identify any individual investment led by him or AgFunder with a date in the past 12 months. Known portfolio companies include Atomo Coffee, Bear Flag Robotics, Integriculture and Root AI, but I could not find a timestamped AgFunder investment by Rob Leclerc in the last year. The most recent relevant public mentions relate to commentary in Feb 2025; the absence of a verifiable investment within the prior 12 months supports classifying as 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.
