Private companies raising money file a notice with the SEC that shows how much the company is raising, how much it has sold so far, and who is involved. Fundz picks it up minutes after it is filed, scores it against the raises you work on, and shows who you already know there.
Read from each company's Form D on SEC EDGAR on Oct 9, 2026. All are privately held.
Private raises filed with the SEC appear in Fundz minutes after acceptance: amount offered, amount sold, first sale date and the people named on the filing.
Sold versus offered tells you who is mid-raise and may still want help closing the round, not just who already finished.
Set the raise sizes, sectors, states and company sizes you work with. Every new filer is ranked against them.
Hiring, new executives, contracts and earlier rounds sit on the same record, so you can tell an early-revenue company from a fund vehicle at a glance.
Connect your LinkedIn once and each company shows who in your network already knows the people on the filing.

A round is worth the most in its first hours, and the team that calls first usually gets the meeting. Fundz is faster than the databases you're used to. Here is how quickly each signal reaches you.
We checked a contact database too. A week after a private funding round was filed, a leading contact database showed 1 of 24 of them. A month later it still showed fewer than half (15 of 39), and the ones it did show arrived a median of 20 days after Fundz had them.
Most sales databases license their company data and refresh it on a schedule, often monthly. Fundz collects it itself, as it happens.
How we measured new funding rounds: for 4,333 SEC Form D filings from Jul 8 to Oct 6, 2026, we timed each one from the moment the SEC accepted the filing. The median was about 4 minutes to capture and about 6 minutes to appear in the Fundz feed; 89% were live within the hour. The slower tail is filings made after hours, picked up the next morning. The signal provider's refresh rates are quoted verbatim from its own published table, read Oct 8, 2026. Contact database: 84 private funding rounds verified against their SEC filings, each looked up in that database on Oct 8, 2026 at 5 to 10, 12 to 18 and 27 to 37 days after Fundz captured it (company funding date and total compared to the filing). Rounds with wide press coverage tend to reach every database faster.
The earliest public trace of most private raises is the Form D notice filed with the SEC. It lists the amount offered, the amount sold so far and the people involved. Fundz captures new filings minutes after the SEC accepts them, scores each company against the raises you work on, and shows who you know there.
A company that has sold part of its offering is still raising. The gap between the two numbers is the part of the round that may still need investors, which is exactly where a placement agent or capital advisor can help.
No. A Form D is filed by private companies raising money in a private offering, which is why it is one of the first places a private raise shows up.
A median of about 4 minutes from SEC acceptance to capture, and about 6 minutes to appear in the Fundz feed, measured over 4,333 filings from Jul 8 to Oct 6, 2026. 89% were live within the hour.
