> AnswerPool EDGAR Filing Search is a paid API for AI agents from answerpool.io, paid per call via x402, $0.005/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability answerpool-edgar-filing-search-2542bf89
```

Example prompt: Pull all 8-K filings with item 1.03 from August 1 through August 31, 2026 — I want the company name, accession number, and the filing URL for each one.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need market-wide sweeps of EDGAR filings by form type and date window without implementing EFTS pagination yourself. Ideal for batch discovery of all filers of a given form in a time period, as opposed to deep dives into a single company's filings. Prefer this over direct EDGAR queries when you want clean structured output with 8-K item codes, company identity, and filing URLs in one call.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported form type returns empty results or validation error
- Date range too wide may return truncated or paginated results
- Unknown CIK or company name filter returns zero results
- Payment failure (x402) blocks the request if USDC balance is insufficient
- EDGAR source latency may cause stale as_of timestamps during peak SEC filing windows

## How this service works

AnswerPool turns SEC EDGAR, the Federal Register, USAspending, NIH, BLS and OpenAlex into structured JSON answers that AI agents and developers fetch in one call. 69 endpoints free, no account; derived analyses $0.02–$0.05 per call by card credits or USDC (x402). MCP server, full provenance.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with an as_of timestamp, total filing count, and an array of filing records each containing the company name, CIK, form type, filed date, accession number, relevant 8-K items (if applicable), and a direct URL to the EDGAR filing index page.
