## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## SEC Event Router

Track normalized SEC events across form types from SEC EDGAR, parsed into clean JSON. Built for analysts, funds, fintech builders and AI agents. Factual public SEC/EDGAR data — not financial or investment advice. Not affiliated with the U.S. SEC.

### 📊 What you get

Clean JSON, one record per event. Key fields (full output has 11 fields):

- `accession_number` — SEC accession number
- `cik` — Filer CIK
- `ticker` — Ticker symbol
- `company_name` — Company / filer name
- `filing_date` — Filing date
- `form_type` — Filing form type
- `source_url` — Direct sec.gov filing link
- `scraped_at` — Detection / fetch timestamp
  Every record carries a direct **sec.gov** source link.

**Pricing:** $0.10 per event (Pay-Per-Event) — about **10 events per $1**.

### 🤖 Use with AI agents

Structured, source-linked SEC data built for LLM and agent pipelines — point Claude, the OpenAI Agents SDK, an n8n flow or any MCP-aware client at it and pull normalized SEC events across form types on demand.

**Sample agent prompt:**

```
Give me one unified event stream of 8-K, 13D and Form 4 activity for a ticker.
```

**Agentic payments (x402):** Supports agentic payment via x402 — agents can call this actor with USDC, no API key required.

### ⏰ Run on a schedule

The recurring frame is the point — schedule a daily or weekly pull:

```json
{
  "query": "Apple"
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "query": "AAPL",
    "formTypes": [
        "8-K",
        "4",
        "D",
        "13F-HR",
        "Litigation"
    ],
    "dateFrom": "2026-04-01",
    "dateTo": "",
    "maxEventsPerType": 10
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("nexgendata/sec-event-router").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
