The short version

John Launchbury is listed as a director on 2 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Dec 2018 and Sep 2023: Tangram Flex, Inc. (Dayton, OH — other technology — 2018–2023; $4.5M reported sold to 1 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC. 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 Robert Wiltbank (2 shared filings), Sterling Phillips (2 shared filings), Caitlin Dohrman (1 shared filing), Galois, Inc. (1 shared filing, management entity), Peter LaMontagne (1 shared filing) and 2 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around John. 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) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 2 public filings for John Launchbury and found 2 differences: Form D filed 34 days after the first sale; John Launchbury is listed with 2 different address states: OH, OR.

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

2 differences found between the filings for John Launchbury (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Aug 11, 2023 – Sep 14, 2023

Form D filed 34 days after the first sale — Tangram Flex, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Aug 11, 2023. The Form D was filed Sep 14, 2023 — 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.

Note · Dec 28, 2018 – Sep 14, 2023

John Launchbury is listed with 2 different address states: OH, OR

OH on 1 filing (Dec 28, 2018); OR on 1 filing (Sep 14, 2023).

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.

5. Money to insiders

None reported on 2 offerings — no sales commissions, finder's fees or proceeds to insiders

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).
