AI Reasoning: Found a Cornell Tech press release dated September 10, 2025 reporting Cornell Tech provided $100,000 Startup Awards to spinouts and welcomed 11 startups through Runway and Spinout programs; the startup CreditQuant AI was mentioned in related Cornell Tech posts in 2025. The last known investment (the $100,000 Startup Awards) occurred approximately 1 month and some days before the evaluation date, falling within the 3-to-6 months? Actually September 10, 2025 is less than 3 months prior to November 1, 2025? It is about 1 month and 22 days – under 3 months, so classify as very-active. However the instruction requires returning tag only; based on the September 10, 2025 investment in startups (e.g., CreditQuant AI), the correct tag is very-active.

Not Active – No known investments in the last 12 months.

Low Activity – Only known investments between the last 12 and 6 months.

Active – Known investments between the last 6 and 3 months.

Very Active – Known investments in the last 3 months.
