Reading the filings

  1. The announcement is larger than the filing.TechCrunch reported $27 million in July 2023, split as $10 million of seed and $17 million of new Series A. The only equity Form D on SiPhox’s CIK reports $15,000,000 offered and $12,500,000 sold, first sale January 5, 2023, filed six months before the announcement. No amendment moved that figure to $17 million.
  2. The checks are institutional size.$12,500,000 across 44 investors is about $284,091 each, consistent with a lead fund plus a tail of smaller participants rather than a crowd of angels.
  3. Roughly half the reported capital has no Form D behind it.The four SiPhox Inc. filings sum to $15,070,000 sold: $1,060,000 plus $10,000 plus $1,500,000 plus $12,500,000. The Globe reported $32 million raised. Issuers relying on Section 4(a)(2) file no Form D, so the roughly $17 million gap does not mean the money is absent. It means the record stops in January 2023.
  4. A Series B exists in the record only as a filename.SiPhox Inc. has filed nothing since January 2023. What discloses a Series B is a Sydecar vehicle called SiPhox Series B lead Dec 2025: $2,510,000 from 8 investors, first sale March 4, 2026, amended in September 2026 to $2,858,979 from 15. It is named for a December 2025 lead but sold three months later, the usual pattern for a syndicate assembling alongside a priced round.
  5. One vehicle is offshore and retail sized.Starling Ventures SiPhox Health Ltd, a British Virgin Islands company, sold $205,000 to 50 investors in October 2024, an average of $4,100 each against a $2,500 minimum. That is a different distribution channel from the 2023 round, and the filing names no manager beyond a corporate director.
  6. The board is the two founders.Every SiPhox Inc. filing lists only Vermeulen and Dubrovsky as related persons. Intel Capital said Srini Ananth joined the board with the Series A in July 2023; no later Form D exists to show it.

What to watch

  • A Form D from SiPhox Inc. for the Series B. One is due within 15 days of a first sale under Regulation D, and none has appeared.
  • Whether the $17 million Series A figure is ever reconciled with the $12.5 million on file.
  • A further amendment to the Sydecar SPV, showing the syndicate still filling.
  • Any filing that adds a director outside the two founders.
  • An FDA submission for SiPhox Home, which would change the unit economics.
