Smart Money Dossier October 29—November 5, 2025

Anna's Smart Money Dossier

Just facts, you think for yourself

Here's the deal: most financial "news" is just noise.

The real alpha isn't on the front page of TechCrunch; it's buried in boring, public SEC filings that nobody has time to read.

We read them for you. And this week, the signals are screaming.

While everyone was distracted by celebrity micro-funds (yes, we found one from Robert Downey Jr. that’s a perfect example of "dumb money" froth), we found two monster signals:

  1. A $1B+ unicorn co-founder (from QuickNode) just quit to start something new. He quietly filed a Form D for ≈$5.9 million to build the "API for physical access." We have the full story.

  2. The literal creator of SciPy and NumPy—the guy who built the foundation of modern scientific computing—is a general partner on a brand new $220 million deep-tech fund.

This is just the tip of the iceberg.

In the full report below, we unlock our "Dossier" on the Top 5 Filings of the week. We don't just list them—we give you the "Why," the exec pedigree, and our unvarnished analysis on whether it's "smart money" or a trap.

You can either spend 40 hours a week digging through filings, or you can get the 5-minute "Alpha" right here.
