The data underneath

Every Form D filing, 2021 to 2026.

318,450 Form D filings, indexed and queryable, with offering amounts, fund type, and geography parsed on the fund subset. One cut: roughly 10,400 Illinois fund raises since 2021, with a median close around $6-9M against a $10M target. That is the raw material for a real "am I behind?" answer.
