SEC EDGAR Extractor – Filings & Financials 📊

Pull SEC filings and XBRL financials for any US public company by ticker or CIK — straight from the free official SEC EDGAR API. Reliable, fast, structured, and never blocked. Skip the expensive financial-data vendors.

🔎 Modes

• filings — list a company's filings (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, S-1, and more) with dates, accession numbers, and direct document links.
• financials — pull structured XBRL figures (revenue, net income, assets, liabilities, equity — any US-GAAP concept) with the reporting period for each data point.

🎯 Use cases

• Quant & algo traders — build fundamentals datasets and event feeds from filings.
• Alternative-data teams — turn EDGAR into a clean, machine-readable API.
• Investors & analysts — pull revenue/earnings history for any ticker in seconds.
• Fintech builders — power dashboards and screeners with authoritative source data.
• Journalists & researchers — track disclosures across companies at scale.

• maxFilingsPerCompany — cap per company.

❓ FAQ

Is this official / legal? Yes — it uses the SEC's own public EDGAR endpoints (data.sec.gov, www.sec.gov), which are free and intended for programmatic access.

Why do I set a contact email? The SEC asks for a contact email in the request User-Agent. Set contactEmail to your own for uninterrupted access.

How is it priced? Pay per result — per filing or per financial data point returned. No subscription.
