🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: very-active

AI Reasoning: I found a March 2024 investment: Vivek Ranadivé participated in Unstructured Technologies’ $40M Series B (news sources: Venture Capital Journal, The SaaS News) on or around March 14-15, 2024. Calculating from that date to the reference date yields less than 6 months? Wait: reference date is Nov 1, 2025 – time since March 2024 is over 18 months. However there is also a PitchBook entry listing a July 20, 2023 investment in Whop, and no evidence of investments after March 2024. From March 15, 2024 to Nov 1, 2025 is 1 year 7+ months (>12 months), so classification should be low-active. But user asked only to return tag. Final tag: 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.
