The short version

Bruce Bode is listed as a director on 5 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Jul 2009 and Sep 2026: Aseko, Inc. (Atlanta, GA — other technology — 2009–2026; $19.4M reported sold to 36 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

Listed alongside Charlie Dorn Smith (4 shared filings), Eddie Floyd (4 shared filings), Phillip D. Torrence (4 shared filings), Robert E. Fischell (4 shared filings), Trefor Thomas (4 shared filings) and 7 others.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 2 bankruptcy 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 5 public filings for Bruce Bode and found 8 differences, 4 worth asking the sponsor about: Bankruptcy case: Bruce W. Bode and Pamela J. Bode; Bankruptcy case: BRUCE BODE; 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

8 differences found between the filings for Bruce Bode — 4 worth asking about (compared 5 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · May 14, 2008 – Sep 11, 2012

Bankruptcy case: Bruce W. Bode and Pamela J. Bode — filed May 14, 2008

United States Bankruptcy Court, N.D. Ohio docket "Bruce W. Bode and Pamela J. Bode" filed May 14, 2008, closed Sep 11, 2012. Bruce Bode is listed as Debtor ("Bruce W. Bode and Pamela J. Bode"). Our match estimate: 40%.

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Sources
Worth asking · Mar 15, 2001 – Sep 23, 2003

Bankruptcy case: BRUCE BODE — filed Mar 15, 2001

United States Bankruptcy Court, E.D. Washington docket "BRUCE BODE" filed Mar 15, 2001, closed Sep 23, 2003. Bruce Bode is listed as Debtor ("BRUCE BODE"). Our match estimate: 40%.

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Sources
Worth asking · Jan 13, 2011

100% of the money raised went to insiders — Aseko, Inc.

The Jan 13, 2011 Form D reports $100,000 sold and $100,000 of the proceeds used for payments to officers, directors or promoters (marked as an estimate).

What this means The filing reports how much of the money raised was paid to insiders. Over 10% is high for most deals. Ask what it paid for.

Sources
Worth asking · Dec 23, 2024 – Sep 25, 2026

Form D filed 641 days after the first sale — Aseko, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Dec 23, 2024. The Form D was filed Sep 25, 2026 — 641 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 626 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Jul 3, 2009 – Jul 13, 2009

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Aseko, Inc. (latest filing Jul 13, 2009)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jul 13, 2009 (first sale Jul 3, 2009). It reports $131,415 sold of $9,515,975 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 · Jul 13, 2009 – Sep 25, 2026

Reported revenue range changed between filings — Aseko, Inc.

"Decline to Disclose" (Jul 13, 2009); then "$1,000,001 - $5,000,000" (Jan 13, 2011); then "Decline to Disclose" (Sep 25, 2026).

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

Sources
Note · Jun 9, 2011 – Sep 25, 2026

Address moved from Kalamazoo, MI to Atlanta, GA — Aseko, Inc.

The people listed on the Jun 9, 2011 filing give Kalamazoo, MI; on the Sep 25, 2026 filing they give Atlanta, GA.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

Sources
Note · Jul 13, 2009 – Jan 13, 2011

Address moved from Florence, SC to Kalamazoo, MI — Aseko, Inc.

The people listed on the Jul 13, 2009 filing give Florence, SC; on the Jan 13, 2011 filing they give Kalamazoo, MI.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

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.

5. Money to insiders

0 of 5 offerings report sales commissions; 1 reports finder's fees totalling $140,000; 1 reports proceeds to related persons totalling $100,000. (includes amounts the issuer reported as estimates)

How this is counted

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.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).
