The short version

Robert Levande is listed as an executive officer, director, and promoter on 4 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Nov 2014 and Sep 2017: Pulse Biosciences, Inc. (Hayward, CA — other health care — 2014–2017; $50M reported sold to 72 investors) and theMaven, Inc. (New York, NY — other technology — 2017; $23.1M reported sold to 26 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, director, and promoter, over about 3 years. Across those companies the filings report $73.1M sold in total.

Listed alongside Brian B. Dow (2 shared filings), Christopher Marlett (2 shared filings), Darrin Uecker (2 shared filings), Maky Zanganeh (2 shared filings), Mitchell Levinson (2 shared filings) and 9 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Robert. 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 4 public filings for Robert Levande and found 8 differences: Robert Levande's role changed at Pulse Biosciences, Inc.: director, promoter → director; Robert Levande's role changed at Pulse Biosciences, Inc.: executive officer, director → director, promoter; 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.

Note · Mar 9, 2017 – Mar 17, 2017

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — theMaven, Inc. (latest filing Mar 17, 2017)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Mar 17, 2017 (first sale Mar 9, 2017). It reports $500,000 sold of $5,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

Address moved from Burlingame, CA to Hayward, CA — Pulse Biosciences, Inc.

The people listed on the Feb 15, 2017 filing give Burlingame, CA; on the Sep 28, 2017 filing they give Hayward, CA.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

Robert Levande is listed with 2 different address states: CA, WA

CA on 3 filings (Nov 13, 2014 to Sep 28, 2017); WA on 1 filing (Mar 17, 2017).

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).
