The short version

Bryan Pate is listed as an executive officer and director on 9 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Dec 2009 and Jun 2026: PT Motion Works, Inc. (Solana Beach, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2009–2026; $9.1M reported sold to 25 investors) and ElliptiGO Inc (Solana Beach, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2015; $1M reported sold to 7 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 17 years. Across those companies the filings report $10.1M sold in total.

Listed alongside Brent Teal (7 shared filings).

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.

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) — 3 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 3 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 9 public filings for Bryan Pate and found 6 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 63 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

6 differences found between the filings for Bryan Pate — 1 worth asking about (compared 9 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Oct 22, 2009 – Dec 24, 2009

Form D filed 63 days after the first sale — PT Motion Works, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Oct 22, 2009. The Form D was filed Dec 24, 2009 — 63 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 48 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.

Note · Apr 23, 2026 – Jun 1, 2026

Form D filed 39 days after the first sale — PT Motion Works, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Apr 23, 2026. The Form D was filed Jun 1, 2026 — 39 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 24 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.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Form D · Jun 1, 2026 ↗PT Motion Works, Inc. — PartnerFacts page ↗
Sources
Note · Jan 27, 2011 – Feb 7, 2011

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — PT Motion Works, Inc. (latest filing Feb 7, 2011)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 7, 2011 (first sale Jan 27, 2011). It reports $420,000 sold of $2,000,000 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.

Reported revenue range changed between filings — PT Motion Works, Inc.

"$1 - $1,000,000" (Dec 24, 2009); then "Decline to Disclose" (Feb 7, 2011).

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.

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).
