The short version

Wavemaker Partners, LLC is a management entity listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Sep 2014: Wavemaker Partners III, L.P. (Santa Monica, CA — investing — 2014; $22.1M reported sold to 24 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Sep 2014. 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 David Siemer (1 shared filing), Eric Manlunas (1 shared filing) and Paul Santos (1 shared filing).

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Wavemaker Genesis (19 issuers, $122.5M reported sold, 2011–2025).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Wavemaker Genesis has 19 companies on file and $122.5M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

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) — 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 1 public filing for Wavemaker Partners, LLC and found 2 differences: Wavemaker Partners, LLC appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target; No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open.

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

2 differences found between the filings for Wavemaker Partners, LLC (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Sep 29, 2014

Wavemaker Partners, LLC appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target

Wavemaker Partners III, L.P. (last filing Sep 29, 2014; $22,100,000 sold of $45,000,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.

Sources
Note · Sep 15, 2014 – Sep 29, 2014

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Wavemaker Partners III, L.P. (latest filing Sep 29, 2014)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Sep 29, 2014 (first sale Sep 15, 2014). It reports $22,100,000 sold of $45,000,000 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
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
