## Method and limits
- Source: No row on this list rests on an SEC filing. All 103 have a website we checked. Filing date and fund size are SEC data where a filing exists. Stage, sector and check size are our research.
- Inclusion rule: Organizations that back startups. Individuals, buyout funds and firms we found to be inactive are left out. Sector: the firm states energy as a focus on its own site, or we observed it in the firm's portfolio.
- Order: Activity score out of 100: recency of the latest fund filing or dated deal (40: within 3 months 40, 6 months 30, 12 months 20, 24 months 10), share of the observed portfolio in this sector (30; 15 when the sector is stated only), size of the fund on file on a log scale (20) and completeness of the public record (10). It is a measure of activity and fit, not of quality or returns.
- Fill rates: Of 103 rows: stage 93, sector 103, fund size 25, website 103. In the paid file: named decision-makers on 81 rows, firm email on 60, LinkedIn page on 68, check size on 43.
