The short version

Ashley Bittner is listed as an executive officer and director on 6 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between May 2021 and Jul 2025: Firework Ventures LP (Menlo Park, CA — pooled investment fund — 2021–2022; $24.3M reported sold to 25 investors), Career Allies, Inc. (Fort Collins, CO — other technology — 2025; $18.4M reported sold to 10 investors), Firework Fuse Holdings I, LLC (Menlo Park, CA — pooled investment fund — 2021; $4M reported sold to 7 investors) and Firework Fuse Holdings II, LLC (Menlo Park, CA — pooled investment fund — 2021; $1.3M reported sold to 3 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 4 years. Across those companies the filings report $48M sold in total.

Listed alongside Brigette Lau (6 shared filings), Andy Boyd (1 shared filing), Brent Hill (1 shared filing), Jennifer Henderson (1 shared filing), Jill Frankle (1 shared filing) and 2 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Ashley. Each name links to their own page.

3 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Firework Fuse (3 issuers, $29.6M reported sold, 2021–2022).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Firework Fuse has 3 companies on file and $29.6M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 6 public filings for Ashley Bittner and found 10 differences: Form D filed 17 days after the first sale; Offering amount lowered between filings; 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

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

10 differences found between the filings for Ashley Bittner (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jun 25, 2021 – Jul 12, 2021

Form D filed 17 days after the first sale — Firework Fuse Holdings II, LLC

The filing says the first sale was Jun 25, 2021. The Form D was filed Jul 12, 2021 — 17 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 2 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.

Sources
Note · Jul 30, 2021 – Sep 26, 2022

Offering amount lowered between filings — Firework Ventures LP

The Jul 30, 2021 filing says $100,000,000 offered; the Sep 26, 2022 Form D/A says $60,000,000.

What this means The target raise got smaller. That can mean the plan shrank or the sponsor stopped early. Ask what changed in the deal.

Sources
Note · May 3, 2024 – Jul 31, 2025

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Career Allies, Inc. (latest filing Jul 31, 2025)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jul 31, 2025 (first sale May 3, 2024). It reports $18,399,989 sold of $20,000,000 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.

Sources
Note · Aug 5, 2021 – Sep 26, 2022

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Firework Ventures LP (latest filing Sep 26, 2022)

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.

Sources
Note · May 13, 2021 – Jul 31, 2025

Ashley Bittner is listed with 2 different address states: CA, CO

CA on 5 filings (May 13, 2021 to Sep 26, 2022); CO on 1 filing (Jul 31, 2025).

What this means The address on a Form D is usually the company's, not the person's home, so this often just reflects different companies. It can also mean a move. Nothing wrong by itself.

Sources
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.
