The short version

Jay Schmelter is listed as an executive officer and director on 47 SEC Form D filings by 16 issuers between Mar 2009 and Jan 2025. Largest by amount reported sold: RiverVest Venture Fund V, L.P. (St. Louis, MO — pooled investment fund — 2020–2021; $275M reported sold to 96 investors), RiverVest Venture Fund IV, L.P. (St. Louis, MO — pooled investment fund — 2017–2018; $167.5M reported sold to 68 investors), Alleviant Medical, Inc. (Austin, TX — other health care — 2023–2025; $90.8M reported sold to 35 investors), RiverVest Venture Fund III, L.P.

(St. Louis, MO — pooled investment fund — 2011–2012; $69.5M reported sold to 58 investors) and 11 more (all listed below).

What this means That is a lot of deals — 16 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 16 years. Across those companies the filings report $925.8M sold in total.

Listed alongside Anthony Arnerich (20 shared filings), John P. McKearn (13 shared filings), Frederick Buckman (9 shared filings), Thomas C. Melzer (9 shared filings), Gregory Tibbitts (8 shared filings) and 103 others.

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

7 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Rivervest Venture (7 issuers, $596.8M reported sold, 2014–2021).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Rivervest Venture has 7 companies on file and $596.8M 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 (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 court 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 47 public filings for Jay Schmelter and found 20 differences, 3 worth asking the sponsor about: 5 regulator actions name the subject or team members; 2 court cases name Jay Schmelter; 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.

The issuer's latest filing says it was formed in 2010. The Oct 15, 2009 filing says the first sale was Sep 30, 2009 — before that year.

What this means The address on a Form D is usually the company's, not the person's home, so this often just reflects different companies. It can also mean a move. Nothing wrong by itself.

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).

Deals 16

Every issuer that named Jay Schmelter on a Form D, newest first. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment.
