US Startup Funding Tracker (SEC Form D, EDGAR)

Which US companies just raised money — and how much?

Every time a US company raises capital in a private (exempt) offering, it must file a Form D with the SEC within 15 days of the first sale. That includes seed and venture rounds, real-estate syndications, and fund raises. These filings are public on EDGAR, but they arrive as raw XML with legal codes and no summary.

This actor turns them into a clean, machine-readable feed of who raised how much, where they are, and what industry they're in — as English structured JSON.

No API key. No login. No scraping — only the SEC's official, public-domain data endpoints.

No personal data. Form D also lists executives and directors by name and address. This actor deliberately does not emit any of it — only the company, the money, and the dates. Nothing to worry about on the GDPR side of your pipeline.

Why people use this

A company that just closed a round has budget it did not have last month. That makes these filings a high-intent trigger for:

• B2B sales — freshly funded companies buying tools, services and infrastructure.
• Recruiting — companies that just raised are about to hire.
• VC / competitive intel — who is raising in your sector, at what size, and whether the round actually closed.
• AI agents & newsletters — a normalized funding stream you can pipe into an LLM.

The fields that do the work

Most of the value is in the derived flags, because the raw form is easy to misread:

• amountSoldUsd vs totalOfferingUsd — the number that matters is what was sold, not what was offered. Plenty of filings advertise a large target with a fraction of it actually raised, and those get quoted as if the round were closed.
• isFullySold — offering amount met and nothing remaining. This is a closed round, not an open one.
• isPooledInvestmentFund — Form D is used just as heavily by hedge funds, VC funds and real-estate funds as by operating companies. On a typical day most filings are funds. Set excludePooledFunds to drop them and keep real companies. This one flag is the difference between a usable lead list and noise.
• isNewFiling — false for amendments (Form D/A), which update an existing offering rather than announcing a new one. Filter these out to avoid counting the same round twice.
• allowsGeneralSolicitation — true under Rule 506(c), meaning the company is legally allowed to publicly advertise the raise. Useful signal if you care whether a round is quiet or public.
• raiseBand — bucketed size (under_1m, 1m_5m, 5m_25m, 25m_100m, over_100m) for quick segmentation.

Input

Field	Default	Notes
dateFrom	6 days ago	First EDGAR filing date, YYYY-MM-DD.
dateTo	today	Last filing date. Days are scanned newest first, so a capped run returns the freshest raises.
minAmountSoldUsd	—	Keep only raises at or above this, e.g. 5000000 for $5M+.
maxAmountSoldUsd	—	Keep only raises at or below this — useful for seed-stage targeting.
states	—	Issuer HQ state/country codes, e.g. ["CA","NY"]. Territory-based prospecting.
industries	—	Industry keyword match, e.g. ["technology"], ["health"].
excludePooledFunds	false	Turn this on for sales/recruiting leads — keeps operating companies only.
newFilingsOnly	false	Skip amendments (D/A).
formTypes	["D"]	D = new notice, D/A = amendment.
maxFilings	25	Cap for a cheap sample (0 = no limit).
delayMs	150	Politeness delay. SEC allows 10 req/s; don't go below 120.
secUserAgent	actor default	SEC asks automated clients to identify themselves.

All fields are optional — a run with no input returns the latest 25 Form D filings.

Typical uses

• Weekly lead list: excludePooledFunds: true, newFilingsOnly: true, minAmountSoldUsd: 2000000 — real companies that just closed a meaningful round.
• Territory prospecting: add states: ["CA"] to work a single market.
• Sector watch: industries: ["technology"] or ["biotechnology"].
• Full history: maxFilings: 0 over a date range, then aggregate by state or industry.

Volume

Roughly 180–260 Form D filings per business day (measured across early August 2026). A large majority are pooled investment funds, so an operating-companies-only run is considerably smaller — which is usually what you want.

Notes & limitations

• Data source: SEC EDGAR daily form indexes and Form D primary_doc.xml — official, public-domain US government data. The actor respects the SEC fair-access policy (identifying User-Agent, well under 10 requests/second).
• A company can file several Form Ds on the same day for separate offerings; these are genuinely distinct filings and all are returned.
• Form D reports the amount raised, not a valuation. There is no valuation field in the form, so any valuation figure you see quoted elsewhere came from another source.
• Filers have 15 days from first sale to file, so dateOfFirstSale can be well before filedDate. daysFromFirstSaleToFiling makes the lag explicit.
• Weekends and market holidays have no daily index; the actor skips them automatically.

FAQ

How do I get a list of companies that just raised funding? Run this actor with excludePooledFunds: true and newFilingsOnly: true. It returns each company, the amount raised, HQ state and industry, straight from SEC filings. No API key needed.

What is a Form D? A notice of an exempt securities offering. US companies raising private capital under Regulation D must file one with the SEC within 15 days of the first sale, which is why it works as a near-real-time funding feed.

Why are so many results investment funds? Because funds raise capital the same way operating companies do, and they file far more often. Use excludePooledFunds to remove them.

Does this include investor or founder names? No. Form D does list related persons, but this actor intentionally omits all personal data and returns company-level information only.

How fresh is it? Filings appear in EDGAR's daily index within minutes of acceptance. Schedule this actor daily on Apify for a continuous funding feed.
