From public SEC filings to usable data

SEC filings contain valuable financial, ownership, company, fund, and regulatory information. However, finding the right documents and converting their contents into usable data can slow research and development.

SEC Filing Data brings filing search, source-document access, structured datasets, bulk archives, and specialized regulatory records together so your team can spend less time preparing SEC data and more time using it.

Find the right filing

Search using supported filing metadata such as ticker, CIK, company name, SIC, state, IRS number, form type, SEC file number, accession number, and filing date or time range. Full-text search across filing documents and attachments is coming soon.

Use the format your workflow needs

Work with structured JSON, retrieve supported filings and attachments in their original formats, generate filing PDFs, receive streaming filing metadata, or use bulk files and archives where available.

Keep the SEC source close

Retain filing dates, company identifiers, form types, accession numbers, file numbers, and available SEC source links alongside the data used in your application.

Connect related SEC datasets

Filing search with financial statements, company records, insider transaction, institutional holdings, securities offering, investment-fund reports, audit data, & SEC enforcement records in one platform.

Explore available and upcoming SEC APIs

Choose the APIs that match your research, product, or application workflow. Features marked Coming soon are part of the product roadmap and are not yet available for production use.
