The short version

Kara Murphy is listed as an executive officer on 6 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Oct 2012 and Oct 2016: EatStreet, Inc. (Madison, WI — industry reported as "Other" — 2012–2016; $15M reported sold to 28 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 Alex Wyler (6 shared filings), Matt Howard (6 shared filings), James Crouthamel (5 shared filings), Eric Martell (4 shared filings), Michael Gruber (3 shared filings) and 8 others.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, LA, ME, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, NH, NM, OR, RI, TX, WA) — 4 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 4 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 6 public filings for Kara Murphy and found 6 differences: Bankruptcy case: EatStreet, Inc; Form D filed 31 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

6 differences found between the filings for Kara Murphy (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Oct 11, 2024

Bankruptcy case: EatStreet, Inc. — filed Oct 11, 2024

United States Bankruptcy Court, W.D. Wisconsin docket "EatStreet, Inc." filed Oct 11, 2024 (Open). EatStreet, Inc. (related issuer) is listed as Debtor ("EatStreet, Inc."). Our match estimate: 60%.

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Sources
Note · Sep 14, 2012 – Oct 15, 2012

Form D filed 31 days after the first sale — EatStreet, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Sep 14, 2012. The Form D was filed Oct 15, 2012 — 31 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 16 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 · Nov 18, 2015 – Dec 3, 2015

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — EatStreet, Inc. (latest filing Dec 3, 2015)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Dec 3, 2015 (first sale Nov 18, 2015). It reports $14,999,825 sold of $16,000,000 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 · Jan 24, 2014 – Feb 7, 2014

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — EatStreet, Inc. (latest filing Feb 7, 2014)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 7, 2014 (first sale Jan 24, 2014). It reports $3,721,990 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 · Oct 15, 2012 – Oct 13, 2016

Reported revenue range changed between filings — EatStreet, Inc.

"$1 - $1,000,000" (Oct 15, 2012); then "$1,000,001 - $5,000,000" (Sep 24, 2014); then "$5,000,001 - $25,000,000" (Dec 3, 2015); then "Decline to Disclose" (Oct 13, 2016).

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

Sources
Note · Oct 15, 2012

Formed in 2015 per the latest filing, but activity is dated 2012 — EatStreet, Inc.

The issuer's latest filing says it was formed in 2015. The Oct 15, 2012 filing says the first sale was Sep 14, 2012 — before that year.

What this means A company cannot sell before it exists, so one of the two dates is likely a typo on the form. Ask the sponsor for the formation document.

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.
