Finding private funding rounds before they are announced

A Form D is due within 15 days of the first sale, and most rounds are announced later than that, if they are announced at all.

The problem

By the time a round is written up, the partners you wanted to speak to have closed it. The filing that discloses the same raise was public weeks earlier and nobody was reading it.

The raw feed is mostly funds

A large share of Form D volume is funds filing their own raises. They are large enough to dominate any ranking by amount, so they have to come out before anything else is useful.

The amount is cumulative

An amendment restates the running total for the same offering rather than reporting new money, so summing filings for one issuer double counts.

The industry field is self-selected

It is the filer's own checkbox from a fixed list, and a large minority pick the unspecific "Other" or "Other Technology" rather than a named industry. Private issuers have no SIC code to join in, so there is no lookup that repairs it.

The request

One call

GET /funding/v1/filings
  ?sector=Biotechnology
  &min_amount=5000000
  &since=2026-07-02

Pooled investment funds are already filtered out. Amendments are excluded by default, so the list is originals unless you ask otherwise.

entity_name

The issuer. A business name; there is no personal data on this product at all.

total_amount_sold_usd

Cumulative as reported on the filing. "Indefinite" is preserved verbatim with the number left null rather than coerced to zero.

investor_count

How many have already invested, filed on the form.

minimum_investment_usd

The minimum ticket, where filed. Zero means no minimum; absent means it was not filed.

security_types

Equity, debt, option and so on. This is what separates a $10M equity round from a $10M debt facility.

date_of_first_sale

When the raise actually started, which is often well before the filing date.

What to know before you build on it

There is no website or domain field anywhere on a Form D. Resolving an issuer to a company on the internet is a separate problem with its own error rate.
There is no ticker either, and that is a property of the universe rather than a gap: these are mostly private issuers.
A filing is a disclosure that a sale occurred, not a valuation and not a confirmation that the round closed at that number.

Common questions

How early is a Form D compared to a funding announcement?

The form is due within 15 days of the first sale. Announcements typically come later, and many rounds are never announced at all, so the filing is often the only public record.

Does a Form D tell me the valuation?

No. It reports the amount sold and the offering size, not a valuation, not a priced round's terms and not the investor names in any usable form.
