How this page is built
- Which companies. Startups as defined in our startup funding data, placed in California by the address on their latest Form D. Registered-agent and virtual-office addresses (common in Delaware and Wyoming) do not count as a location.
- Which months. The totals at the top count Form D filings from Nov 13, 2025 to Nov 13, 2026. The company list covers every California startup on the site that has filed since 2023.
- What counts as a round. Each new Form D offering. Later amendments update its amount; they are not new rounds.
- Left out. Public companies, companies based outside the US, and mergers or spin-offs.
- Conflicting figures. A filing whose numbers contradict each other is counted as filed and flagged on its company page.
- Not every round is here. Some companies raise money without filing a Form D.
