## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

# README

### 8-K Executive Changes Monitor — Real-Time CEO/CFO/CTO Alerts

**Get a Slack, email, or webhook notification the moment a public-company executive resigns, retires, or is appointed.** Built directly on the official **SEC EDGAR** 8-K feed — no scraping, no anti-bot, no auth needed. Granular filtering by ticker watchlist, role keyword, sub-item (5.02a/b/c/d/e/f), industry SIC code, and narrative regex.

A modern, programmable alternative to **Boardex**, **BoardroomAlpha**, **Spencer Stuart Insights**, **Citeline**, and **CXO Movements** — for executive recruiters, PE/VC portfolio teams, sales-intelligence ops, equity analysts, and journalists who need to know about C-suite moves **the same hour they're filed**.

> **TL;DR:** Every public-company executive departure, appointment, or compensation change is filed under SEC 8-K Item 5.02 within 4 business days. This actor watches that feed in real time, filters by your criteria, and pushes alerts. Pay only $0.30 per matched filing delivered.

### What does 8-K Executive Monitor do?

This actor polls the official **SEC EDGAR 8-K real-time feed** and surfaces filings with **Item 5.02** (Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Officers; Compensatory Arrangements). It's the regulatory item every US-listed company must file when a senior officer or director leaves, joins, or has their compensation adjusted.

The actor:
1. Pre-filters the EDGAR 8-K RSS feed to entries citing Item 5.02 (massive efficiency win — only ~5–15% of 8-Ks have 5.02)
2. Optionally filters by your ticker watchlist before fetching anything
3. Fetches each filing's primary HTML, strips it to plain text
4. Detects exact sub-items cited: **5.02(a) director resignation**, **5.02(b) departure**, **5.02(c) officer appointment**, **5.02(d) director election**, **5.02(e) compensation arrangement**, **5.02(f) salary determination**
5. Runs role-keyword + departure-keyword + appointment-keyword regex against the body
6. Generates an excerpt around the matched anchor text
7. Pushes alerts to your channel of choice and to the dataset

#### Why this beats free alternatives
- **SEC EDGAR website** lets you search 8-Ks but doesn't push alerts, support watchlists, or filter by item subsection.
- **DIY n8n / Zapier flows** break when the EDGAR RSS structure changes and don't extract sub-items reliably.
- **Bloomberg Terminal** has executive-change alerts but costs $24K/seat/year.

#### Why this beats expensive alternatives
- **Boardex** ≈ $20K+/yr enterprise. **BoardroomAlpha** ≈ $XK/yr. **Spencer Stuart** ≈ retainer-only.
- This actor: ~$10–$100/month for typical use.

### Why use 8-K Executive Monitor?

#### Buyer personas + use cases

##### 🎯 Executive recruiter / search firm
A CEO leaves their public company — that's a **retainer signal worth $50K–$500K**. Be first to call. Filter by `roleKeywords: ["CEO", "CFO"]` + `departureKeywords: ["resign", "retire"]` and watch the entire S&P 1500.

##### 🏢 PE / VC portfolio operations
Watch a basket of portfolio company tickers. When a portfolio CEO leaves, the firm's MD needs to know within hours, not when it makes the WSJ. Filter `tickers: ["PORTFOLIO_TICKERS"]`.

##### 💼 B2B sales-intelligence team
"Competitor's VP of Engineering just left → pitch their replacement now." Filter by `roleKeywords` for the role in your buyer profile + watch competitor tickers.

##### 📊 Equity analyst / hedge fund
CEO/CFO turnover is a documented stock-mover. Catching the 8-K in the first 5 minutes of filing = real alpha. Filter for material roles + S&P 500 tickers.

##### 📰 Financial journalist / newsletter
Beat the news cycle. Watch the Russell 1000 with default keyword filters, get a Slack ping when something material drops.

##### 🏦 Activist investor / proxy team
Detect early signs of board change at a target — Item 5.02(a) is "involuntary departure" language and reveals proxy-fight setup.

### How to use 8-K Executive Monitor

> ⚠️ **Important: this actor must be scheduled to receive ongoing alerts.** A single run only checks once. Use Apify's **built-in Schedules** feature — no Zapier, n8n, or external scheduler needed.

1. **Click "Try for free"** to add the actor to your Apify account.
2. **Configure the input:**
   - Pick which `itemFilter` sub-items you care about (default = a, b, c, d — i.e. all departures + appointments)
   - Optionally set a `tickers` watchlist (most useful for PE/VC portfolio monitoring)
   - Tune `roleKeywords` to match seniority you care about (default catches CEO/CFO/CTO/COO/Chairman/General Counsel)
3. **Pick a notification channel:** Slack, Email digest, or Custom webhook.
4. **First run: enable `testMode`** to fire one alert for the most recent matching filing.
5. **Set up the Schedule:** Actor → Schedules → New schedule → cron `0 */2 * * *` (every 2 hours) is the recommended default.

#### Schedule cadence cheat sheet

| Cron | Frequency | Best for |
|------|-----------|----------|
| `*/30 * * * *` | every 30 min | Active M&A / earnings season tracking |
| `0 */2 * * *` | every 2 hours | Standard recruiter / PE monitoring (default) |
| `0 9 * * 1-5` | weekdays 9am UTC | Daily morning digest only |

### Input fields

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `itemFilter` | Which 5.02 sub-items to alert on. Default = (a) director resignation + (b) departure + (c) appointment + (d) election. |
| `tickers` | Stock tickers watchlist. Empty = match all US public companies. |
| `sicCodes` | 4-digit SIC codes to limit by industry (e.g. `["7370"]` for Computer Services). |
| `roleKeywords` | Substring match in 8-K body. Default catches CEO/CFO/CTO/COO/Chairman/Chief/Director/General Counsel. |
| `personNames` | Track specific executives by name across companies. |
| `departureKeywords` | Words signaling departure (resign, retire, step down, depart, terminate, no longer). |
| `appointmentKeywords` | Words signaling appointment (appoint, hire, join, named, elect, promote, succeed). |
| `requireMatchingNarrative` | If true, body must contain a role keyword AND a departure-or-appointment keyword. Default true (filters routine annual board re-elections etc.). |
| `excludeAmendments` | Skip 8-K/A re-filings. Default true. |
| `lookbackHours` | Recent-filings window. Default 24h. |
| `notificationChannel` | `none` / `slack` / `email` / `webhook` |
| `slackWebhookUrl` / `emailRecipient` / `customWebhookUrl` | Channel credentials |
| `userAgent` | **Required.** SEC fair-access policy: `Your Name your@email.com`. |
| `testMode` | First-run sanity check. |

### Output

Every match is also pushed to the run's dataset. Example item:

```json
{
  "accessionNumber": "000119312526210895",
  "filedAt": "2026-05-07T11:04:15-04:00",
  "isAmendment": false,
  "formType": "8-K",
  "cik": "0001066247",
  "company": "REGENCY CENTERS LP",
  "ticker": "REG",
  "itemsCited": ["5.02(b)", "5.02(c)"],
  "eventType": "Transition",
  "matchedRoles": ["ceo", "chief"],
  "matchedNames": [],
  "matchedDepartureKeywords": ["retire", "step down"],
  "matchedAppointmentKeywords": ["appoint", "succeed"],
  "narrativeExcerpt": "…the Board of Directors of Regency Centers Corporation announced that Lisa Palmer will retire as Chief Executive Officer effective…",
  "filingUrl": "https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1066247/000119312526210895/0001193125-26-210895-index.htm"

### Pricing — pay-per-event

This actor uses **Apify pay-per-event pricing: ~$0.30 per matched filing delivered**. Quiet days cost $0. Compare to:

| Service | Approx cost |
|---|---|
| Bloomberg Terminal | $24,000 / seat / year |
| Boardex | $20,000+ / year |
| BoardroomAlpha | $XK+ / year |
| Spencer Stuart Insights | retainer-only |
| **8-K Executive Monitor** | **~$5–$100 / month for typical use** |

A recruiter watching the S\&P 1500 with default keyword filters typically sees 30–80 matches/month = **$9–$24/month**. A PE firm watching 50 portfolio tickers might see 5–15 matches/month = **$1.50–$4.50/month**.

### FAQ

**Is this legal?** Yes. SEC EDGAR is the official public filing system. All 8-K data is public-domain.

**How fresh is the data?** EDGAR's RSS updates every few minutes. Latency from filing acceptance to your alert is your scheduled-run interval (~2 hours by default) plus ~30 seconds for parsing.

**Why do some matches have empty `matchedRoles`?** The 8-K mentions an Item 5.02 event but doesn't explicitly use a role keyword in the body (rare — usually means the role is named in an exhibit). Set `requireMatchingNarrative: false` to surface these too.

**What about non-US companies?** This actor is US SEC EDGAR only. UK FCA, EU MAR, Canadian SEDI executive disclosures would each need separate actors.

**Why doesn't every 8-K with Item 5.02 mention a role keyword?** Some filings only refer to executives by name in the narrative. Add likely names to `personNames` to catch those.

**Does this support 6-K (foreign-private-issuer) filings?** Not yet. 6-K reporting on executive changes is less standardized; could be added in v0.2.
