filing.firehose

SEC EDGAR filings, body-text parsed.

A JSON API for 8-Ks, S-3 / 424B5 takedowns, and Schedule 13D / 13G filings. We parse the actual filing body, not just the filer-reported item codes — so you catch the cyber incidents buried under Item 8.01 and the officer departures hidden in “Other Events.”

What you get

Body-text item detection

Every 8-K item is detected from the rendered body, not just the filer-reported list. We surface a discrepancy_items field that flags items the filer didn’t report.

Suspected buried events

Cyber language under Item 8.01 → flagged as a suspected 1.05. Officer-departure language under 8.01 → flagged as a suspected 5.02. The alpha is in the misclassifications.

S-3 and 424B5 dilution signals

Shelf size in dollars, ATM-offering detection, sales-agent extraction (Cantor, Jefferies, Roth, etc.). The structural-dilution dataset most APIs don’t parse.

Activist-filer flags on 13D

Saba, Bulldog, Karpus, Icahn, Elliott, Starboard, Pershing — automatically tagged on every Schedule 13D / 13G filing. CUSIP and percent-of-class extracted from the cover page.

FAQ

Is this just EDGAR with a wrapper?

EDGAR gives you raw filings. We give you structured fields — parsed item bodies, normalized entities, discrepancy flags. Building this yourself is a project; using it is a curl call.

What’s the latency?

Filing visible to API in 8–25 seconds (median ~15s). Limited by EDGAR’s RSS publication cadence; we run a 2-second polling loop on top of it.

Historical depth?

The archive grows from launch (May 2026). 6-month and full-history backfills are on the roadmap; reach out if you need historical data sooner.

Refunds?

If our service breaks materially in your first 30 days and we can’t fix it, we refund. After that, monthly billing — cancel anytime.
