The short version

Bryan Gartner is listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Aug 2013: Pluralsight, LLC (Farmington, UT — other technology — 2013; $135M reported sold to 10 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Aug 2013. 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 Aaron Skonnard (1 shared filing), Frederick Onion (1 shared filing), Greg Woodward (1 shared filing), Keith Brown (1 shared filing) and Ryan Hinkle (1 shared filing).

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Pluralsight (2 issuers, $135.6M reported sold, 2013–2016).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Pluralsight has 2 companies on file and $135.6M 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) — 1 bankruptcy 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.

We compared 1 public filing for Bryan Gartner and found 5 differences: Same name, different state: "Bryan Charles Gartner" (X0) is a separate record; Same name, different state: "Bryan Gartner" (CT) is a separate record; 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.

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).
