Data last updated Oct 23, 2026, 5:45 PM ET · Courts (RECAP) last checked: Oct 24, 2026, 2:22 AM ET · SEC enforcement last checked: covered by the index scan as of Oct 24, 2026, 2:50 AM ET

The short version

Bruce Willison is listed as a director on 9 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Aug 2010 and Apr 2023: TYFONE INC (Portland, OR — other technology — 2010–2023; $25M reported sold to 22 investors), iCashe, Inc. (Portland, OR — other technology — 2021–2023; $2.4M reported sold to 3 investors) and SideAssure, Inc. (Camas, WA — other technology — 2021; $1.52M reported sold to 7 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 13 years. Across those companies the filings report $28.9M sold in total.

Listed alongside Siva Narendra (9 shared filings), Prabhakar Tadepalli (8 shared filings), Rajesh Srivathsa (8 shared filings), Brenda L. Meltebeke (5 shared filings), Steve Pawlowski (4 shared filings) and 14 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.

2 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Tyfone (2 issuers, $27.4M reported sold, 2010–2023).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Tyfone has 2 companies on file and $27.4M 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 9 public filings for Bruce Willison and found 7 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: Paid seller listed without a CRD number: Grant Thornton Advisory Private Limited; Form D filed 83 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

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

7 differences found between the filings for Bruce Willison — 2 worth asking about (compared 9 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Apr 20, 2023

Paid seller listed without a CRD number: Grant Thornton Advisory Private Limited — TYFONE INC

Grant Thornton Advisory Private Limited is listed as receiving sales compensation on 1 filing (Apr 20, 2023) with no FINRA CRD number given.

What this means People paid to sell securities normally hold a FINRA registration with a CRD number. Without one we cannot look them up on BrokerCheck. Ask who they are and whether they are registered.

Sources
Worth asking · Dec 22, 2020 – Mar 15, 2021

Form D filed 83 days after the first sale — iCashe, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Dec 22, 2020. The Form D was filed Mar 15, 2021 — 83 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 68 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 · Dec 22, 2020 – Feb 10, 2021

Form D filed 50 days after the first sale — SideAssure, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Dec 22, 2020. The Form D was filed Feb 10, 2021 — 50 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 35 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 · Dec 7, 2017 – Feb 15, 2018

Offering amount changed between filings — TYFONE INC

The Dec 7, 2017 filing says $1,000,000 offered; the Feb 15, 2018 Form D/A says $2,000,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · May 28, 2015 – Mar 13, 2017

Offering amount changed between filings — TYFONE INC

The May 28, 2015 filing says $8,631,772 offered; the Mar 13, 2017 Form D/A says $9,360,949.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · May 15, 2015 – Oct 17, 2022

4 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 — iCashe, Inc. (latest filing Oct 17, 2022) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — SideAssure, Inc. (latest filing Feb 10, 2021) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — TYFONE INC (latest filing Feb 15, 2018) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — TYFONE INC (latest filing Mar 13, 2017)

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 · Mar 15, 2021 – Mar 3, 2023

Industry group changed between filings — iCashe, Inc.

"Other" (Mar 15, 2021 to Oct 17, 2022); then "Other Technology" (Mar 3, 2023).

What this means The issuer described its business differently on different forms. Often it is just a different box ticked; sometimes the deal itself changed. Ask which business your money is in.

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.

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).
