The short version

Timothy McSweeney is listed as a director on 2 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between May 2021 and Feb 2024: Pliant.io, Inc. (Boston, MA — other technology — 2021; $10.5M reported sold to 15 investors) and Bid Ventures, Inc. (Boston, MA — other technology — 2024; $10.1M reported sold to 25 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 3 years. Across those companies the filings report $20.6M sold in total.

Listed alongside David Isman (1 shared filing), Isaiah Kacyvenski (1 shared filing), John Tyler Carlin (1 shared filing), Matthew Goldberg (1 shared filing), Matthew Miller (1 shared filing) and 4 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Timothy. 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 2 public filings for Timothy McSweeney and found 4 differences: No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; Same name, different state: "Timothy J. McSweeney" (MA or PA) 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 Timothy McSweeney (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jan 22, 2024 – Feb 6, 2024

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Bid Ventures, Inc. (latest filing Feb 6, 2024)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 6, 2024 (first sale Jan 22, 2024). It reports $1,675,407 sold of $3,000,000 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.

Note · Mar 19, 2010 – Apr 1, 2024

Same name, different state: "Timothy J. McSweeney" (MA or PA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is MA. A separate record, "Timothy J. McSweeney" with address state MA or PA, is listed on 9 filings — most recently by CyberSaint, Inc. (Apr 1, 2024). Both records have filings in the same period (May 13, 2021 to Feb 6, 2024).

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.
