## 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 EDGAR Filings Scraper – 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K & Company Profiles

**Get clean SEC EDGAR data by ticker or CIK: recent filings (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K and more) with filing & report dates, accession numbers and direct document URLs, plus company profiles (SIC code, exchanges, category). As JSON, CSV or Excel. Free, no key.**

### 💵 Pricing

**Pay per result — about $2 per 1,000 items** (charged per input **and** per output item). No subscription, no proxy needed. You only pay for the data you scrape, and new Apify accounts include free monthly credits so you can test it for **$0**.

### 🔎 What can it extract?

- **Filings**: form type (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, …), filing date, report/period date
- **Accession number** + **direct primary-document URL** on sec.gov
- Filing description
- **Company profile**: legal name, CIK, SIC code & description, category, all tickers, exchanges
- Look up by **ticker** (auto-resolved to CIK) or **CIK** directly

### 🚀 How do I use it?

1. Click **Try for free**.
2. Choose a **mode** (`filings` or `company`) and enter tickers or CIKs.
3. Optionally filter by **formType** (e.g. `10-K`).
4. Click **Start** and download results as JSON, CSV or Excel — or pull them via the API / schedule them.

```json
{
  "mode": "filings",
  "tickers": ["AAPL", "MSFT"],

- **Research** — build datasets of filings across sectors (by SIC) for analysis

100 items → ~$0.20 · 1,000 → ~$2 · 10,000 → ~$20
