SEC Form D Scraper: Recently Funded Companies & Funding Rounds

SEC Form D Scraper: recently funded companies, funding rounds and fund raises

SEC Form D Scraper turns SEC Form D filings into clean data: one row per private raise, with the company or fund, amount raised, round size, industry, the executive who signed with their title, phone, address, year founded and whether it is the issuer's first raise. Every US company and fund that sells shares, SAFEs, notes or LP interests in a private placement (a seed or Series A round, a real estate syndication, a new VC, PE or hedge fund) has to file a Form D within 15 days of the first sale. This Actor reads those filings straight from SEC EDGAR.

Use it as a daily feed of new raises for sales and recruiting, or pull every Form D filed since 2009 (778,516 filings) to build a funding database, a market study or a fund-industry prospect list.

• Fresh funding signals. Filings appear on EDGAR the day they are filed, often weeks before a press release or a Crunchbase entry, and many raises are never announced at all.
• Full history back to 2009. Any date range, one row per filing, so you can backfill years of rounds and keep them updated with a daily run.
• Companies and funds. Operating companies by default; untick one box to add VC, PE, hedge, real estate and other pooled funds with fund type, broker-dealers and placement agents.
• A named decision maker per issuer. The person who signed the filing with their real title (CEO, CFO, Managing Member), plus every executive officer, director and promoter listed.
• Phone, address and EIN from the filing and the issuer's EDGAR profile.
• Startup filters. Companies incorporated in the last five years, first-time Form D filers, no stock ticker.
• Filter at the source. State, industry, amount raised, offering size, exemption (Rule 506(b), 506(c), 504) or keyword.
• Built for schedules and pipelines. "Only filings not returned before" delivers each filing once, so a daily run feeds your CRM, warehouse, Google Sheet or Slack with new raises only.
• Official data, no API key, no proxy. SEC EDGAR full-text search and the structured Form D XML each issuer submits. Export to CSV, Excel or JSON, or use the API.

Quick start

1. Click Try for free and sign in to Apify.
2. Keep the defaults (filings from the last 7 days, funds and amendments excluded) or pick states and industries.
3. Click Start. A week of filings takes about three minutes.
4. Open the Output tab and export the list.

{
    "daysBack": 7,
    "maxResults": 100
}

To get every new raise each morning, save your input as a task, turn on Only filings not returned before and add a daily schedule.

What is in Form D data?

Most Form D filings are not startups. In the week above, 587 of the 913 new filings came from pooled investment funds and 383 more were amendments to earlier filings. The defaults keep only the 326 operating companies, the rows a sales or recruiting team can sell to. Fund service providers and data teams switch the funds and amendments back on and get everything.

Backfill years of funding rounds

Set startDate and endDate to any range from 2009 on, with maxResults: 0. The Actor reads one filing day at a time, so any range works; there is no 10,000-result cap.

{
    "startDate": "2025-01-01",
    "endDate": "2025-12-31",
    "excludePooledFunds": false,
    "includeAmendments": true,
    "maxResults": 0
}

• Speed: the SEC allows 10 requests per second, and each filing takes about two. A week of every filing (1,296) took 6 minutes, so a full year takes about 4 hours. Set the run Timeout in the run options to cover it (it is 6 hours by default), or run one quarter per run.
• Cost: see the table in the image above, or How much does it cost? below. Your spending limit stops the run cleanly at your budget.
• Keep it current: after the backfill, schedule a daily task with daysBack: 3 and Only filings not returned before, so each new filing arrives once.
• Follow rounds over time: with amendments included, previousAccessionNumber links a Form D/A to the filing it updates, and totalAmountSold shows how much of the round has closed by then.

Track new funds (for fund service providers)

Every new VC, PE, hedge, real estate and credit fund files a Form D after its first sale. The rows name the fund, its type (investmentFundType), the amount raised so far, the minimum investment, the Investment Company Act exemption (3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7)), the broker-dealers and placement agents with their CRD numbers, the general partner or manager entities, and the person who signed for the GP with their title and phone.

{
    "daysBack": 7,
    "excludePooledFunds": false,
    "industryGroups": ["Pooled Investment Fund"],
    "onlyFirstFormD": true,
    "maxResults": 0
}

onlyFirstFormD keeps funds filing for the first time, which are new funds, not a manager's tenth vehicle update. Add states to limit it to your region.

One task per client or segment (for agencies)

Save one task per client with that client's states, industries and round sizes, turn on Only filings not returned before and give each task a daily schedule. Each task remembers its own delivered filings, so every client gets each matching raise once, and a filing that fits two clients goes to both. Send the results anywhere with Apify integrations: Google Sheets, Slack, email, HubSpot through Make or Zapier, n8n, webhooks or the API.

Daily feed, operating companies, one month	about 1,400	$14	$9.80
Daily feed, every filing incl. funds, one month	about 5,500	$55	$38.50

Everything since 2009	778,516	$7,785	$5,450

Row counts are from EDGAR's filing totals and the October 5–11, 2026 test week (25% operating companies, 45% new fund raises, 30% amendments).

How it works

1. The Actor searches EDGAR full-text search for Form D filings, one filing day at a time, filtered by state and keyword on the SEC side.
2. Amendments are dropped before download (unless you include them). For each remaining filing it downloads the structured primary_doc.xml the issuer submitted and reads every field of the form.
3. Funds and your other filters are applied, and the issuer's EDGAR profile adds EIN, ticker and Form D history.
4. Requests stay under the SEC's fair-access limit of 10 per second, with an identifying User-Agent.

FAQ

How fresh is the data? Filings appear in EDGAR search on the day they are filed. EDGAR doesn't accept filings on weekends and federal holidays, so a 1-day window on a Monday morning can be empty; the default 7-day window covers that.

How far back does it go? To 2009, when the SEC made Form D an electronic, structured filing. Older paper filings have no data to read.

Why are there no emails or websites? Form D doesn't ask for them. You get the issuer's phone, address and the names and titles of its executives, which is what you need to look them up in your email-finding or enrichment tool.

What does "amount raised" mean? totalAmountSold is what the issuer reports as already sold when it files. A Form D is filed within 15 days of the first sale, so many rounds are still open; amendments (Form D/A) update the number later. totalOfferingAmount is the size of the round they plan.

What is a "related person"? Form D lists every executive officer, director and promoter of the issuer. For funds and real estate deals these are often the general partner or manager entities, marked with isOrganization: true.

Why do some companies appear twice? An issuer can file several Form Ds in a week (separate rounds, securities or parallel funds). Each filing is one row; accessionNumber is unique.

Can I call it from code or an AI agent? Yes. Run it through the Apify API or the JavaScript and Python clients, or from any MCP client through the Apify MCP server, and read the dataset as JSON or CSV.

Is it legal to use this data? Form D filings are public records published by the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Follow the rules for your outreach (CAN-SPAM, TCPA, GDPR where it applies).
