SEC Form D API: Reg D Private Placements (Unofficial)

What does it do?

Get new SEC Form D filings (notices of exempt offerings, mostly Regulation D private placements, including startup funding rounds and fund raises) as clean rows you can download as JSON, CSV or Excel or read through the Apify API. It reads the SEC's public, keyless EDGAR sources on www.sec.gov: the EDGAR daily index to find each day's Form D and D/A filings, and each filing's Form D document for the offering data. You need no account or API key.

Each row is one filing with company and offering data only: issuer name and CIK, state or country, jurisdiction, entity type, industry group, offering amounts (total, sold, remaining), minimum investment, exemptions claimed, date of first sale, amendment flag, investor counts and filing links. No personal data fields: the people listed on a Form D (related persons, signers, sales-compensation recipients) are never output.

Use it to track new private placements and fund raises every day, or to study offerings by industry, state, exemption or size.

How much does it cost?

• $0.01 per run start plus $4 per 1,000 Form D filings saved ($0.004 each, the offering event). Example: 1,000 filings = $0.01 + $4 = $4.01.
• You pay only for rows that are saved. Filings withheld, filtered out or already seen are free.
• Set Maximum cost per run when you start a run; the Actor stops when it reaches your cap.

Privacy: company and offering data only

Form D documents list related persons (executive officers, directors, promoters), a signer and sales-compensation recipients. This Actor removes those sections from each document before reading it, so their names, addresses and roles never reach the output, the run summary or the logs. The issuer's street address and phone number are not read either; only its state or country is output. Issuers that may be individuals (entity type "Other" or missing, and a name without any company marker such as Inc, LLC, LP, Fund or Trust) are withheld and counted in the run summary. The documents themselves, at the links, still contain the full filing.

Limits

• Up to 90 days per run (one SEC daily index per business day). Today's filings appear the next morning. A business day has roughly 250 to 400 Form D and D/A filings.
• Each filing needs one request for its document. Requests are paced at 8 per second, below the SEC's limit of 10, so 1,000 filings take about two to three minutes. maxRequests (default 2,000) caps SEC requests per run; with narrow filters many documents are read for each saved row.
• Amounts are as filed by the issuer and are not adjusted or verified. Filters on amounts and exemptions use the filed values.

FAQ

Do I need an API key? No. The SEC's EDGAR data "do not require any authentication or API keys to access".

Can I reuse the data? The SEC states: "Information presented on sec.gov is considered public information and may be copied or further distributed by users of the web site without the SEC's permission." Every row credits the SEC as the source. This is not legal advice.

Why is an issuer missing? It may be withheld as a possible individual, filtered out by your inputs, or its Form D document could not be read (counted in the run summary).

How do I get only new Form D filings each day? Turn on onlyNewFilings, set lastNDays to 2 and schedule the Actor daily. Filings already delivered are skipped without being downloaded.

Can I filter by Rule 506(c), state or industry? Yes: exemptions (e.g. 06c for Rule 506(c)), states, industryGroups, minTotalOffering and minAmountSold.

When do today's filings appear? The next morning, when the SEC publishes its daily index.

Does it include the people named on the Form D? No. Related persons, signers and sales-compensation recipients are never output; issuers that look like individuals are withheld.

Does it cover 10-K, 10-Q or 8-K filings? No. For those, see our separate SEC EDGAR Filings API actor on the Apify Store.

What does it cost? $0.01 per run plus $0.004 per saved filing ($4 per 1,000). Duplicates, filtered and invalid filings are free.
