Reading the filings
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
Commercial signals
| Signal | Detail | Source type |
|---|---|---|
| Regulatory | No 510(k) and no PMA. An FDA establishment registration and a listing for a blood specimen collection convenience kit, code PQD, which needs no premarket notification. | Public record |
| Revenue model | Membership at $124 for the first cycle and $149 after, plus a white label partner program with a 500 kit minimum. | Company-stated |
| Cost of goods | Samples run by an unnamed third-party CLIA certified, CAP accredited laboratory. The photonic chip that would bring that cost in-house is not cleared. | Company-stated |
| Non-dilutive | $681,631 Massachusetts M2I2 grant, July 2022, for biochip manufacturing capacity. No NIH or NSF award found. | Public record |
| Competitive set | Function Health raised $298 million at a $2.5 billion valuation in November 2025. Everlywell sells comparable mail-in panels. | Independent |
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.
