Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 1 court case matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 1 record 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.

Note · Dec 4, 2017 – Dec 23, 2019

Note · May 17, 2013 – Jun 13, 2025

8 offerings have no amendment in the last 12 months and may still be open

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — IOTA Software Inc. (latest filing Jun 13, 2025) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — IOTA Software Inc. (latest filing Oct 31, 2024) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Seeq Corp (latest filing Apr 16, 2021) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Seeq Corp (latest filing Dec 23, 2019) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Seeq Corp (latest filing Dec 4, 2017) · and 3 more

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. Ask the sponsor which of these raises have closed.

Sources
Note · May 30, 2013 – Jun 13, 2025

Brian Parsonnet is listed with 2 different address states: WA, NC

WA on 7 filings (May 30, 2013 to Aug 24, 2021); NC on 2 filings (Oct 31, 2024 to Jun 13, 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
Note · May 12, 2023 – Jun 13, 2025

Minimum investment changed between filings — IOTA Software Inc.

The May 12, 2023 filing lists a minimum of $49,996; the Jun 13, 2025 Form D/A lists $0.

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

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.

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.
