🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: very-active

AI Reasoning: LinkedIn post shows Saeed Amidi referenced investment in Turing’s recent Series E; the post timestamp indicates about 8 months ago from today (March 2025 post). However, TechCrunch and PR show Turing Series B was Dec 10, 2020; the LinkedIn indicates participation in Series E in Mar 2025, which is within 6 months prior to current date (post timestamp ‘8mo’ on LinkedIn corresponds to March 2025). The most recent verifiable investment activity is involvement with Turing (Series E) in March 2025, which is less than 6 months ago, so classify as very-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.
