SEC Form D Filings Scraper & Monitor (New Private Raises)

Get a daily feed of new SEC Form D filings, the notices companies file when they raise money privately, as JSON, CSV or Excel. See who just raised, where they are, what industry they are in, how much they are offering and how much they have already sold. Built for B2B sales teams selling to newly funded companies (banks, accountants, recruiters, SaaS, wealth and fund services), and for VC and market researchers. Official SEC EDGAR data, no API key.

Why this Actor

• Official source. Reads the SEC EDGAR daily form index and each filing's own Form D XML on sec.gov. Form D filings are public records. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the SEC.
• Operating companies first. Pooled investment funds (hedge, PE and VC funds) file most Form D filings. They are excluded by default; switch that off, or list "Pooled Investment Fund" as an industry group, to get them.
• New raises, not amendments. Only original Form D filings by default; add D/A to include amendments.
• Monitor mode. With onlyNew on, each scheduled run returns only filings not seen before for that filter combination.
• No individuals. Executive officers, directors and promoters ("related persons") listed in a Form D are never read or output. The sales compensation recipients list is also skipped, because on live filings a recipient can be an individual.
• Polite. At most 5 requests per second (SEC allows 10) with a declared contact User-Agent, retries with backoff, and a clear failure if the SEC blocks access.

How to use

1. Set filters (all optional) such as states, industryGroups or minAmountSold. The form is prefilled for a small test: 3 business days, 10 items.
2. Click Start. You get filings from the last lookbackDays business days, newest first, up to maxItems.
3. Save the input as a task, turn on onlyNew, and schedule it daily. Send results to Sheets, your CRM or a webhook with Apify integrations.

{
  "formTypes": ["D"],
  "excludePooledFunds": true,
  "states": ["CA", "NY", "TX"],
  "minAmountSold": 500000,
  "lookbackDays": 3,
  "onlyNew": true,
  "maxItems": 100
}

Filters

Between filters it is AND, within one filter it is OR.

Input	Meaning
formTypes	D (default) and/or D/A
industryGroups	Exact industry group names as filed, case-insensitive, e.g. Other Technology, Biotechnology, Banking and Financial Services
excludePooledFunds	Default on; ignored if you list Pooled Investment Fund
states	Issuer state codes
minAmountSold, minOfferingAmount	USD thresholds; an "Indefinite" offering passes the offering minimum
exemptions	Match any claimed exemption; 3C also matches 3C.1, 3C.7
keywords	Text match on issuer name (applied before details are fetched, which saves requests)
lookbackDays	Business days to read, 1 to 30, default 3
onlyNew, resetState	New-since-last-run mode and its reset. State is kept per filter combination in the named key-value store sec-form-d-filings-state
maxItems	Cap on results, default 100

Method and request budget

Discovery uses the EDGAR daily form index (Archives/edgar/daily-index/<year>/QTR<n>/form.<YYYYMMDD>.idx), one request per day. It was chosen over EDGAR full-text search because it is the official bulk file listing, has a fixed layout, is not a search API with its own rate and result-window quirks, and lists exactly what was filed each day. Weekends are skipped; holidays and the current day (index not yet published) have no file (EDGAR answers 403 with an AccessDenied XML body, not 404) and are skipped without error. Details come from each filing's primary_doc.xml, one request each, since industry, amounts and exemptions are only there.

Per run: about lookbackDays + 1 index requests, plus at most max(25, 5 x maxItems) filing requests (the cap exists because filters such as industry and state can only be applied after the XML is read). If the cap is reached the run logs a warning; with onlyNew on, unchecked filings are picked up next run.

Ready-made tasks

Start from a pre-filled search, then adjust the filters:

• Startups That Just Raised Money (Tech, Form D)
• New Private Raises Over $1M

For a daily feed, turn on Only new since last run and add a schedule.

Pricing

Pay per result: you are charged per filing returned. Use maxItems to cap a run.

Use cases

• Prospect lists of newly funded companies for banks, accountants, law firms and payroll or benefits providers.
• Recruiters tracking companies that just raised and will hire.
• SaaS and wealth/fund-services sales teams targeting new issuers in their state or industry.
• VC and market researchers tracking private raise volume by industry and state.

FAQ

Is this legal? Form D filings are public records published by the SEC for anyone to read. The Actor collects no data about individuals: related persons and sales compensation recipients are skipped. The issuer phone and address are the business contact details as filed.

How fresh is it? The daily index for a day appears after that day closes, so filings arrive with about one day delay. Schedule the task daily.

Why fewer results than expected? Amendments and pooled funds are excluded by default, and the lookback counts business days.

Required setup. The SEC requires a declared User-Agent with a contact email. Set the environment variable SEC_USER_AGENT (for example Company Name contact@example.com); the run fails with a clear message if it is missing.

Known limitations

Verified 2026-10-22 against live sec.gov (daily index plus primary_doc.xml for D and D/A, pooled funds and operating companies).

• The amount fields are self-reported by issuers and may be "Indefinite" (about 1 in 12 results, more often with funds included) or zero.
• Industry names are matched exactly as filed. Common values: Other Technology, Other, Other Real Estate, Commercial, Residential, Biotechnology, Other Health Care, Oil and Gas, Pooled Investment Fund.
• Pooled investment funds were about 53% of the Form D filings read in a 10-business-day check, so with the default exclusion roughly two filing requests are spent per result. Foreign issuers use SEC country codes in issuerState (for example N4).
• revenueRange is very often "Decline to Disclose".
• Sales compensation recipients are not output (a recipient can be an individual).
• Filings without a primary_doc.xml (rare) are skipped and counted in RUN_SUMMARY.missingXml.
• Issuer phone and address are as filed; for small issuers these can be a founder's contact details, and some are placeholders such as 000000-0000.
• Reference run, lookbackDays 10 and maxItems 200: 434 requests, 88 seconds, about 140 MB peak memory, 200 results. The prefilled input (3 days, 10 items) takes about 10 seconds and 34 requests.
