The short version

Scott Herman is listed as an executive officer and director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Nov 2021: Cognitive Space, Inc. (Houston, TX — other technology — 2021; $5.74M reported sold to 20 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Nov 2021. 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 Guy de Carufel (1 shared filing) and Jennifer Roberts (1 shared filing).

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Scott. 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) — 12 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 12 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 1 public filing for Scott Herman and found 1 difference: Same name, different state: "Scott Herman" (NY) is a separate record.

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

1 difference found between the filings for Scott Herman (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jul 28, 2009 – Nov 4, 2021

Same name, different state: "Scott Herman" (NY) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is TX. A separate record, "Scott Herman" with address state NY, is listed on 4 filings — most recently by Clear Street Group Inc. (Nov 4, 2021). The two records do not overlap in time: this page has one filing dated Nov 18, 2021; the other runs Jul 28, 2009 to Nov 4, 2021.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

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.

5. Money to insiders
