SEC EDGAR Scraper — 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, Form 4, 13F, Form D

The most complete SEC EDGAR filings scraper on Apify. Every major SEC form type in one Actor — annual & quarterly reports with structured XBRL financials, 8-K current reports with parsed item numbers, insider transactions, private funding rounds, institutional holdings, and more. Pure HTTP via SEC's official public APIs: no browser, no proxies, no API key.

Why this Actor

• Widest coverage — 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, Form 3/4/5, Form D, 13F-HR, 13D/G, S-1, DEF 14A and amendments, in a single run. No need to combine single-form scrapers.
• Structured XBRL financials — 10-K/10-Q filings come with machine-readable metrics: revenue, gross profit, operating income, net income, EPS (basic & diluted), total assets, liabilities, equity, cash, long-term debt, shares outstanding.
• Parsed form details — Form 4 transactions (reporter, role, buy/sell code, shares, price), Form D offering data (amount offered/sold, investor count, industry, related persons), full 13F holdings tables, 8-K item numbers with headings.
• Full-text search — search the text of all SEC filings via the official EFTS index (e.g. "artificial intelligence", "bitcoin ETF").
• Monitor mode — newFilingsOnly pushes only filings never seen before. Schedule the Actor daily and build a live filings feed for your watchlist.
• Free preview — the first 5 filings of every run are free.

Inputs

• Companies — stock tickers (AAPL, BRK.A), CIKs (0000320193) or company names, one per line. Leave empty to use full-text search only.
• Filing types — multi-select; leave empty for all supported types.
• Filed after / before — date window (YYYY-MM-DD).
• Full-text search query — searches filing text via SEC EFTS; combines with company and date filters.
• Parse filing details / Include XBRL financial metrics — enrichment toggles (disable for faster metadata-only runs).
• Max filings per company — newest first (default 100, up to 1000).
• New filings only — monitor mode (state kept in key-value store).
• Request concurrency — parallel requests, max 10 (SEC fair-access limit is 10 req/s; the Actor rate-limits automatically).
• Contact email — SEC asks API users to identify via the User-Agent header; optional.

Output

One dataset item per filing:

{

  "ticker": "AAPL",
  "cik": "0000320193",
  "exchange": "Nasdaq",
  "filingType": "4",
  "filedAt": "2026-09-24",
  "filingUrl": "https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/...",

Common metadata (company, filing, accession number, document URLs) is always present; formDetails holds form-specific parsed data and xbrlMetrics holds XBRL financials for 10-K/10-Q.

Pricing

• First 5 filings per run are free (preview).
• Then $0.003 per filing — metadata, parsed details and XBRL metrics included at no extra charge.

Use cases

• Insider trading tracker — follow Form 4 buys/sells across a watchlist (monitor mode + daily schedule)

Notes

• Data comes from SEC EDGAR's official public JSON/XML APIs, which are free and rate-limited at 10 requests/second. The Actor stays within the limit and retries transient errors automatically.
