What the filings show

No Form D appears for this company. SEC EDGAR lists a filer entity, Enflux, Inc., CIK 0001791299, mailing address 514 E. Oceanfront, Newport Beach, CA. A full search of that CIK, across every filing type, returns no filings at all, no Form D, no Form D/A, nothing else. Records.json for this profile independently confirms zero matches in the FDA, trials, NIH, NSF, PubMed, Form D, and EDGAR Form D mention datasets. The absence is notable but not proof of no capital raised: a company that takes money only from Y Combinator, from friends and family, or under an exemption other than Regulation D, can legally raise funds and never generate a Form D.

Reading the record

  1. The only documented investor is Y Combinator itself.Tracxn records a $120,000 “Seed” round in February 2016 with Y Combinator as the sole named investor. That figure matches the standard size of a Y Combinator batch investment in that era rather than a separately negotiated outside financing, and no other institutional or angel investor is named anywhere in the sources reviewed.
  2. Kickstarter money is not investment capital.The $107,621 raised from 476 backers in March 2016 was a rewards-based crowdfunding campaign for physical products, not a securities offering, and it does not and would not appear in EDGAR.
  3. The two public totals do not add up to the teardown site’s estimate.The Y Combinator check plus the Kickstarter raise total about $227,600. A startup post-mortem site, startups.rip, separately states Enflux had “confirmed external funding of roughly $370,000.” No SEC filing, press report, or company statement in this research corroborates that number or explains the roughly $140,000 gap.
  4. No amended or later filing closes the gap.If Enflux had raised a further seed or angel round through a Regulation D exemption at any point after 2016, a Form D would ordinarily follow within 15 days of first sale. None exists under this CIK as of this research.
  5. The absence of federal award or clinical records is expected, not a red flag on its own.Enflux made a consumer wearable, not a medical device or a therapy under study, so the lack of FDA, NIH, or NSF records in this company’s profile reflects its category rather than an omission.

What to watch

  • Whether any Form D ever surfaces for Enflux, Inc. or a related entity that would confirm capital beyond the Y Combinator check.
  • Independent confirmation, or denial, of the Hasbro and Jim Henson Company customer claim.
  • Any statement from the company or its founders on what happened to unfulfilled Kickstarter rewards, if any remained outstanding.
  • Whether the getenflux.com domain and its motion capture SDK pass to a new owner, given signs the site was carrying unrelated promotional content by 2024.
