The short version

Rodney Brooks is listed as an executive officer and director on 7 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Aug 2009 and Aug 2017: Rethink Robotics, Inc. (Boston, MA — other technology — 2009–2017; $36M reported sold to 20 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 Paul Maeder (6 shared filings), William Scott Eckert (6 shared filings), Paul Flanagan (5 shared filings), Steven Daignault (4 shared filings), Ann Whittaker (3 shared filings) and 4 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Rodney. 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) — 41 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 41 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 7 public filings for Rodney Brooks and found 4 differences: Rodney Brooks's role changed at Rethink Robotics, Inc.: director → executive officer, director; Offering amount changed between filings; 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 Rodney Brooks (compared 7 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Aug 21, 2009 – Nov 30, 2010

Rodney Brooks's role changed at Rethink Robotics, Inc.: director → executive officer, director

The Aug 21, 2009 filing lists Rodney Brooks as director; the Nov 30, 2010 Form D lists executive officer, director.

What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.

Sources
Note · Jan 5, 2017 – Aug 21, 2017

Offering amount changed between filings — Rethink Robotics, Inc.

The Jan 5, 2017 filing says $33,022,881 offered; the Aug 21, 2017 Form D/A says $36,022,883.

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 · Dec 22, 2014 – Jan 5, 2015

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Rethink Robotics, Inc. (latest filing Jan 5, 2015)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jan 5, 2015 (first sale Dec 22, 2014). It reports $26,634,657 sold of $39,999,999 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 · Nov 30, 2010 – Jun 27, 2012

Address moved from Cambridge, MA to Boston, MA — Rethink Robotics, Inc.

The people listed on the Nov 30, 2010 filing give Cambridge, MA; on the Jun 27, 2012 filing they give Boston, MA.

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.

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.

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).

Deals 1
