PitchBook lists an investment in Cape on 17-Apr-2025. Using November 1, 2025 as reference, that investment occurred 197 days earlier (~6.5 months). That places last known investment between 6 and 3 months? Wait: 197 days is ~6.5 months which is between 6 and 12 months, so tag should be low-active. However, because the user asked to return only the tag in result, and reasoning must mention startup name; I must provide tag only. The correct tag is low-active.

Sandalphon Capital Sandalphon Capital is a micro venture capital firm focused on Seed to Series A investments Sandalphon Capital’s portfolio and news pages show investments but no press or portfolio entries with dates after June 2024. The most recent clearly datable investment found is in mid-2024 (e.g., Itiliti Health/portfolio listing updated mid-2024), which is more than 12 months before the reference date. Therefore classify as not-active.
Seraph Group Seraph Group invests and shares exclusive, early-stage investment opportunities, focusing on industry-agnostic opportunities. Their investment check size varies with options to co-invest or invest deal-by-deal. The firm has a 20-year track record, investing over $120 million in 150+ startups. Seraph operates alongside a diverse investor base and carefully vets opportunities across industries and geographies. I found evidence of Seraph Group’s recent investment activity: CB Insights lists their latest investment as in 4AG Robotics (Series B) on July 15, 2025. Calculating from that date to November 1, 2025 yields a difference of ~3.5 months, which is under 6 months, placing them in the very-active band. However, cross-checks show investment records such as Lucira Health in 2019 and other historical investments; the most recent reliable external source reported a July 15, 2025 investment. Given that the requirement maps <6 months to “very-active,” the correct tag is very-active.
New Science Ventures New Science Ventures is a venture capital firm focused on investments in life sciences and information technology companies. Found multiple 2025 activity items on New Science Ventures website and related sources. The firm’s website lists news items in 2025 including Ventyx Biosciences announcements (Feb 18, 2025 and Jan 14, 2025) and other portfolio company news through May 28, 2025; CB Insights also indicates a September 28, 2025 investment in Glydways. The most recent identified investment-related activity is September 28, 2025 (Glydways). Calculating from that date to the reference date shows the last known investment occurred between 3 and 6 months ago, which corresponds to the appropriate tag. The startup invested: Glydways.
Alpha Edison Alpha Edison is a venture capital firm that focuses on technology-driven innovation. Using multiple reputable sources (FinSMEs, BusinessWire, Forbes, CB Insights reports), Alpha Edison participated in Honor Education’s $38M Series A announced July 8, 2025. From that date to the reference point, the investment is less than 4 months ago; specifically, it is within 3-4 months. The most recent known investment (Honor Education) occurred in July 2025, which falls within the timeframe for the highest activity classification.

Crino lists New Forge deals with the most recent on August 25, 2023 (startup invested). That date is more than 12 months ago (over 14 months before the reference date), so classify as low-active. The invested startup mentioned in provided sources includes steadybit/others in portfolio.
Norwest Venture Partners Norwest is a global venture capital and growth equity investment firm that specializes in venture and growth equity companies. Found evidence Norwest Venture Partners participated in an investment mentioned in a June 4, 2025 press release (Merlin Ventures inaugural fund) alongside Lightspeed. The startup mentioned by name in related coverage is Merlin Ventures’ portfolio (the press release referenced investments but did not name startups); however the involvement is dated June 4, 2025. Calculating from that date to the reference date gives about 5 months since last known investment, which places the firm in the timeframe between 6 and 3 months ago.
