The short version

Jeff Gardner is listed as a director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Nov 2018 and Aug 2022: ThrivePass, Inc. (Denver, CO — industry reported as "Other" — 2019–2022; $3M reported sold to 12 investors) and ActiveSoul, Inc. (Denver, CO — other technology — 2018; $50K reported sold to 1 investors).

Listed alongside Andreas Deptolla (3 shared filings), Wade Rosen (3 shared filings), Charles Shen (2 shared filings), Michelle A. Schaper (1 shared filing), Robert Grant (1 shared filing) and 1 others.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 6 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 6 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 4 public filings for Jeff Gardner and found 7 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 94 days after the first sale; Form D filed 196 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 Jeff Gardner — 2 worth asking about (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jan 29, 2021 – May 3, 2021

Form D filed 94 days after the first sale — ThrivePass, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Jan 29, 2021. The Form D was filed May 3, 2021 — 94 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 79 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
Worth asking · Mar 8, 2019 – Sep 20, 2019

Form D filed 196 days after the first sale — ThrivePass, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Mar 8, 2019. The Form D was filed Sep 20, 2019 — 196 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 181 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Oct 2, 2018 – Nov 14, 2018

Form D filed 43 days after the first sale — ActiveSoul, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Oct 2, 2018. The Form D was filed Nov 14, 2018 — 43 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 28 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 · Aug 3, 2022 – Aug 12, 2022

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ThrivePass, Inc. (latest filing Aug 12, 2022)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Aug 12, 2022 (first sale Aug 3, 2022). It reports $420,000 sold of $5,000,000 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.

Sources
Note · Mar 8, 2019 – Sep 20, 2019

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ThrivePass, Inc. (latest filing Sep 20, 2019)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Sep 20, 2019 (first sale Mar 8, 2019). It reports $3,000,000 sold of $6,000,000 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.

Note · Dec 29, 2021 – Jan 31, 2022

Same name, different state: "Jeff Gardner" (MI) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is CO. A separate record, "Jeff Gardner" with address state MI, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by MERCANTILE BANK CORP (Jan 31, 2022). Both records have filings in the same period (Dec 29, 2021 to Jan 31, 2022).

What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

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.

"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.
