Reg D Score®
Independent Form D Disclosure Grading for Investors and Their Advisors
A structured, execution-oriented framework that systematically grades Form D disclosure quality while surfacing material non-disclosures, insider de-risking, quiet restructurings, and founder liquidity asymmetries.
Reg D Score evaluates, grades, and risk-rates companies that have filed under Regulation D, then delivers the result as a reproducible, defensible report your team can act on.

We aggregate and analyze raw data from, among other sources:
- NASAA's Electronic Filing Depository
- State securities regulators' enforcement actions, consent orders, and deficiency letters
- SEC Litigation Release
- Broker-dealer and investment adviser databases and registries
- UCC-1 filings
- Secretaries of State records, including related entities
- Federal PACER filings
- Arbitration databases at FINRA, JAMS, and the American Arbitration Association
- Corporate officer databases
- Data embedded in EDGAR
Rewards
internal consistency, continuity across filings, alignment between use-of-proceeds narratives and capital behavior.
Penalizes
disclosure omission volatility, entity name drift, post-raise structural changes, and selective completeness.
Every Reg D Score is built from reproducible, explainable components:
- Entity clarity scores
- Amendment delta scores
- Affiliates across filings
- Asset-holding affiliates
- Founder liquidity index
- Silence risk score: expected disclosures missing
Quiet restructuring detection
We detect "quiet risk" using comparative patterning across filings.
Founder risk-transfer timelines
We deconstruct the sequence by which founders move risk away from themselves.
Retail-legible risk language
No enforcement language. No allegation. Plain, defensible findings.
