The short version

Agate is a sponsor group of 9 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, same business address, similar issuer names; automatic match from the filings), filing 9 Form D filings between Aug 2020 and Nov 2021.

What this means One team, 9 deal companies, about 1 year of track record in SEC filings. We link the companies because the same people or address appear on their forms — tap "Request a correction" if that is wrong.

Combined reported sold: $7.3M to 22 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: Pooled Investment Fund (9). Issuers are based in CA (9).

What this means $7.3M raised across the group, about $332K per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.

Principal people: Ke Wang (9 issuers, executive officer).

What this means 9 deals for a one-person team on paper. The person on the most companies is usually the one running the show; their page lists every deal.

Activity: 0 new offerings in the last 12 months; latest filing Nov 16, 2021.

What this means No new raise filed in the past year.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — 2 court cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 2 records came back. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

We compared 9 public filings for Agate and found 6 differences: Form D filed 25 days after the first sale; Form D filed 29 days after the first sale; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

No comparisons published

What is compared

No public statement by this sponsor group has been collected yet, so there is nothing to compare. Sources compared: the sponsor's own website (known from the issuer's own filings — Form C issuer website, EDGAR company profile — an approved profile claim or Form ADV Item 1.I of its matched adviser) · SEC Form D · SEC Form ADV (IAPD) · Internet Archive · No website is on file for this sponsor group yet.

6 differences found between the filings for Agate (compared 9 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Oct 22, 2021 – Nov 16, 2021

Form D filed 25 days after the first sale — Agate Capital CS, LLC

The filing says the first sale was Oct 22, 2021. The Form D was filed Nov 16, 2021 — 25 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 10 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

The filing says the first sale was Mar 17, 2021. The Form D was filed Apr 7, 2021 — 21 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 6 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Note · Oct 22, 2021 – Nov 16, 2021

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Agate Capital CS, LLC (latest filing Nov 16, 2021)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Nov 16, 2021 (first sale Oct 22, 2021). It reports $1,600,000 sold of an indefinite amount offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
