The short version

Dean Bravos is listed as an executive officer on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Jan 2016: Arrive Mobility Inc. (Chicago, IL — industry reported as "Other" — 2016; $20M reported sold to 17 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Jan 2016. 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 Aashish Dalal (1 shared filing), Benedict Rocchio (1 shared filing), Rob McLennan (1 shared filing), Sanchin Chitnis (1 shared filing) and Tim Brennan (1 shared filing).

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Dean. 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) — 7 court cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 7 records came back, including 1 court case still open — open cases can take years and cost money. 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 Dean Bravos and found 3 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: 6 court cases name Dean Bravos; 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.

Note · Dec 23, 2015 – Jan 26, 2016

Form D filed 34 days after the first sale — Arrive Mobility Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Dec 23, 2015. The Form D was filed Jan 26, 2016 — 34 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 19 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.

Form D · Jan 26, 2016 ↗Arrive Mobility Inc. — PartnerFacts page ↗
Sources
Note · Dec 23, 2015 – Jan 26, 2016

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Arrive Mobility Inc. (latest filing Jan 26, 2016)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jan 26, 2016 (first sale Dec 23, 2015). It reports $18,920,074 sold of $23,000,005 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.

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

"Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
