The short version

John McEleney is listed as an executive officer and director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Jul 2009 and May 2026: Onshape Inc. (Cambridge, MA — other technology — 2015–2016; $105M reported sold to 6 investors), Verve, Inc. (Cambridge, MA — other technology — 2026; $15M reported sold to 36 investors) and CloudSwitch, Inc. (Burlington, MA — computers — 2009; $8M reported sold to 4 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 17 years. Across those companies the filings report $128M sold in total.

Listed alongside Axel Bichara (3 shared filings), Dayna Grayson (3 shared filings), Daniel Shore (2 shared filings), David Corcoran (2 shared filings), Elliot Katzman (2 shared filings) and 18 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) — 3 court 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 4 public filings for John McEleney and found 4 differences: Offering amount changed between filings; Same name, different state: "John McEleney" (FL) is a separate record; 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

4 differences found between the filings for John McEleney (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Sep 24, 2015 – Apr 14, 2016

Offering amount changed between filings — Onshape Inc.

The Sep 24, 2015 filing says $80,000,000 offered; the Apr 14, 2016 Form D/A says $105,000,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Jun 14, 2017 – Apr 15, 2026

Same name, different state: "John McEleney" (FL) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is MA. A separate record, "John McEleney" with address state FL, is listed on 12 filings — most recently by Prometheus Therapeutics Inc. (Apr 15, 2026). Both records have filings in the same period (Jun 14, 2017 to Apr 15, 2026).

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.

Note · Aug 29, 2013

Same name, different state: "John McEleney" (MN) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is MA. A separate record, "John McEleney" with address state MN, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by STRATASYS LTD. (Aug 29, 2013). Both records have filings in the same period (Aug 29, 2013).

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.

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.

Registrations and other filings

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 3 issuers this person is listed on appears in Form ADV (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026). A person is never an adviser firm; Form ADV is checked for the issuers and the management companies they are listed with.
