Tips

• Use factsFilter to target specific financial metrics. Instead of pulling all XBRL data, request only what you need (e.g., ["Revenue", "NetIncome", "Assets"]) to get cleaner output and pay for fewer results.
• Combine 10-K filings with insider trades for investment signals. Run company-facts for fundamental data and insider-trades for the same company to see whether insiders are buying or selling around earnings releases.
• Schedule quarterly runs aligned with earnings season. Most 10-Q filings land within 40 days after quarter end and 10-K filings within 60 days after fiscal year end. Schedule runs in February, May, August, and November to capture fresh data.
• Search by CIK number for precision. Ticker symbols can be ambiguous (e.g., multiple share classes). Using the SEC CIK number ensures you get data for exactly the right entity.
• Build sector comparison datasets by running the actor for multiple companies in the same industry. Pull the same factsFilter metrics for each competitor to create standardized financial comparisons.
