What you get

• Debtor and secured-party parties: every indexed party with its role and address. debtor_name and secured_party_name are derived for quick filtering, and party_direction tells you whether the document uses debtor/secured, grantor/grantee or assignor/assignee roles.
• UCC filing type: ucc_initial, ucc_fixture, continuation, amendment, assignment, termination and the other UCC index codes, alongside the recorder's own document description and code.
• Liens and tax liens: mechanics and general liens (LI), tax liens (TL), deeds of trust (MX) and mortgages (M), including the published lien amount and the claimant.
• Recording district: the district code and name, so you can separate UCC Central filings from local recordings in Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau and the other districts.
• Recording date and time: normalized to YYYY-MM-DD plus the published time.
• Document number and chain: the recorder's document number and the associated or parent document, so you can connect a continuation or termination to its initial filing.
• Legal context: legal description, plat, lot, block, tract, unit, section, township, range, meridian and subdivision when the recorder publishes them.
• Release flag: terminations, releases and satisfactions are marked so you can separate new liens from payoffs.
• Document links: the public detail page and, when available, the public document image.
• Source traceability: source, search term, matched name and observation timestamp on every row.

Each record can carry these 67 fields. A field the source does not publish for a record comes back as null.

Use cases

• Follow liens by recording district, from Anchorage to Fairbanks, with district_name, or look up a claimant's filing statewide.
• MCA and ISO brokers: find Alaska businesses with new secured filings and identify the incumbent funder.
• Equipment finance, factoring and commercial lenders: monitor competitor lending and new borrower activity.
• Credit, collections and recovery teams: spot new secured positions and releases.
• Construction, solar, HVAC and home-improvement finance teams: local lien recordings show the claimant, the property and the amount.

Coverage and freshness

• Jurisdiction: the State of Alaska, all recording districts plus the UCC Central File.
• Select a specific district to browse that district.
• Records: UCC financing statements, fixture statements, continuations, amendments, assignments, terminations, releases, mechanics and general liens, tax liens, mortgages, deeds of trust and other recorded instruments.
• The recorder posts recordings in batches, so the most recent days may not yet appear. Use the recorded-date range that fits your use case.
• Not included: documents the recorder does not publish party detail for, child-support lien assertions, and voided records.
• Not included: certified copies or the paid certified-search cart. Data comes from the free public index only.

Comparison with other Apify actors

No dedicated actor for this source on the Apify Store as of November 2026. We searched the public Store on 2026-11-06 with queries including "Alaska recorder", "Alaska lien" and "Alaska ucc", and we reviewed the listings for this source and data type. Broader actors exist: shelvick/property-deed-records searches deed and lien records from county recorder indexes. Their listings do not name this source, so we could not confirm that they cover it. Store listings change, so run the same search before you rely on this.

FAQ

Is this a statewide Alaska search?

Yes. The actor covers the UCC Central File and every Alaska recording district. Use district to narrow to one district, or ALL to search statewide.

Does it include debtor and lender names?

Yes. Every document returns all indexed parties, their roles and their addresses, plus derived primary debtor and secured-party names and counts.

Can I search by lender or lien claimant?

Yes. Enter the lender, funder or claimant name. The recorder's name index matches the start of the indexed name, so a partial name such as WELLS FARGO returns the exact indexed variants, and each variant is searched.

Can I monitor new filings?

Yes. Leave the names empty and set a date range. The actor walks the busiest recording districts and returns recent UCC, lien and tax-lien recordings.

Are terminations and releases included?

Yes. is_release is true for terminations, releases, partial releases and satisfactions so you can filter them in or out.

Does it include the lien amount?

Yes, when the recorder publishes one. amount is numeric and amount_raw preserves the published value.

Is the data FCRA-compliant for credit decisions?

No. This is public-record research and workflow data, not a consumer credit report.
