A Form D is the notice a fund files with the SEC when it raises money in a private offering. Feeder funds, parallel funds and SPVs each file their own, so the count measures filing activity, not the number of flagship funds.

Vehicles are matched to Gradient Ventures by fund name and checked against the sponsor address and named principals on each filing; offering amounts are not shown.
