The verified record of American entrepreneurship — cited by the SEC.
CCLEAR is hand-verified economic intelligence on the U.S. private-capital base, tracking every Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) offering filed since the exemption went live in May 2016. It is built for the researchers, policymakers, and institutions that study, fund, and shape early-stage American entrepreneurship.
Every figure traces back to a public SEC EDGAR filing. Form C, Form C-U, and Form C-AR filings are captured in full, normalized, hand-verified, and enriched with the issuer, geography, sector, and outcome context raw EDGAR data does not carry. CCLEAR is a data publisher, not an investment adviser.
Proof of authority
CCLEAR data has been cited by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in its annual reporting on Regulation Crowdfunding, and referenced by academic researchers, economic-development organizations, and policy bodies studying how American companies raise capital.
What you can do with it
- Commission research: rigorous, citable studies scoped to your institution's questions.
- License the data: transaction-level access to the full corpus — funded offerings and failures alike.
- Request a custom data cut: state, district, sector, demographic, or time-series slices built to your specification.
- Read the research library: seventeen published economic intelligence briefs anchored to the same dataset.
Methodology
The methodology is locked and published. Records are hand-verified rather than model-inferred, every publication carries a data-as-of date, and figures are reconciled against funding-portal disclosures before release. That discipline is why the numbers hold up under citation.
Who it is for
Academic researchers, regulators and policy bodies, economic-development organizations, foundations, and institutional investors studying the U.S. private-capital base.
