US Private Fundraises: SEC Form D Filings (2009-present)

Need each business day's new Form D filings the next morning? Weio sells a daily CSV by email, filterable by state and industry, $29/month, cancel anytime: weio.ai/services/formd-daily.html

Form D is the notice a US company or fund files with the SEC within 15 days of first selling securities in a private (exempt) offering: startup rounds, private funds, real-estate syndications, oil and gas programs. This dataset turns every Form D and Form D/A on EDGAR since 2009 into three clean, joinable CSV tables.

Coverage: 2009-01-02 to 2026-10-30, complete through that day (a few rows of the following day may already be present). Re-published here every week.

Table (config)	Rows	One row per
`offerings`	784,304	filing: issuer, CIK, city, state, ZIP, entity type, incorporation, industry group, revenue range, exemptions (506(b), 506(c), 504, 3(c)(1), 3(c)(7) ...), first sale date, securities, minimum investment, offering amount, amount sold and remaining, investor counts, commissions, finders' fees, use of proceeds, link to the filing
`related_persons`	3,003,720	executive officer, director or promoter named in a filing (name, role, city and state only)
`sales_compensation`	434,701	broker-dealer or placement agent paid on an offering, with CRD numbers and states solicited

Join on accession_number. Amendments (form_type = D/A) are separate rows linked by previous_accession_number. Full column definitions: DATA_DICTIONARY.md. File checksums: manifest.json.

How it is built

Source: SEC EDGAR, public-domain US government records. History comes from the SEC's quarterly Form D data sets; filings after the newest quarterly set are parsed from each filing's own XML on sec.gov.
Fetched under the SEC's fair-access policy: declared User-Agent with a contact address, at most 8 requests per second, back-off on 429/503.
Normalised: ISO dates, whole-dollar integer amounts (blank when missing or "Indefinite", with an *_indefinite flag), true/false booleans, semicolon-joined lists, deduplicated by accession number, sorted by filing date.
Privacy: issuer street addresses and phone numbers are removed from this public copy; individuals carry name, role, city and state only (no street, ZIP, email or phone).

Known quirks (kept as filed)

Amounts and details are as reported by filers; the SEC does not verify them and neither do we.
In the SEC's quarterly files a related person's middle name can be carried over from the previous person in the same filing (about 1 filing in 5 before mid-2026). Rows with source = edgar_primary_doc are exact.
issuer_state_or_country uses SEC codes: US states, Canadian provinces and country codes such as E9 (Cayman Islands).
