SEC EDGAR Form D Scraper — Find Funded Startups & B2B Leads

Scrape SEC EDGAR Form D (Regulation D) filings and turn public startup-funding disclosures into structured, actionable lead data. This SEC EDGAR Form D scraper extracts company names, offering amounts, executive contacts, industry classification and addresses — perfect for B2B sales prospecting, investor research and lead generation. It uses the official SEC EDGAR public API, so there is no login, no API key and no proxy required.

Every U.S. company that raises capital through a private placement (Reg D exemption) is required by law to file Form D with the SEC. This Actor turns those public filings into clean JSON, CSV or Excel data — often catching startups before they appear on Crunchbase or PitchBook.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is it legal to scrape SEC EDGAR Form D data? Yes. All data is sourced from publicly available SEC EDGAR filings. Form D is a public disclosure document required by U.S. securities law — no private or restricted data is accessed. The Actor follows SEC's fair-access guidelines and rate limits.

Do I need an API key or a login? No. The Actor uses the official SEC EDGAR public API. There is no SEC account, API key or proxy required — you only need an Apify account.

Can I use this data for cold outreach? Form D data, including executive names, is public information. However, you must comply with applicable laws such as CAN-SPAM and GDPR when using contact information for outreach.

Does it work for non-U.S. companies? Yes. It covers any company filing Form D with the SEC, which includes foreign private issuers raising capital in the U.S.

What's the difference between Form D and Form D/A? Form D is the original filing. Form D/A is an amendment that updates previously filed information. Enable includeAmendments to capture both.

How far back can I search and how much data can I get? SEC EDGAR's full-text index typically covers filings from 1993 onwards (XML-formatted Form D is most reliable from ~2008). You can scrape up to 10,000 filings per run.

How much does it cost? The Actor uses pay-per-result pricing — you're only charged for filings actually saved to your dataset. As a rough guide, scraping 500 filings costs around $1.75.

⏰ Scheduling & integration

Schedule this Actor on Apify to capture new Form D filings daily or weekly. Export results to JSON, CSV or Excel, push them to Salesforce, HubSpot or Pipedrive, sync to Google Sheets, or trigger webhooks and Zapier/Make workflows through the Apify API.
