🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: very-active

AI Reasoning: I found evidence Tony Bates had corporate and board activity in 2024 (joined Okta board) and notable roles through 2024; more importantly, I located a news item showing an investment-related role at Social Capital earlier but recent activity includes board appointment at Okta in 2024; no later investment transactions after May 2024 were found. The last known investment-related activity (board appointment and investments over $100M via Social Capital Growth) occurred within the last 6 months window relative to the required calculation, indicating 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.
