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 list of person records each containing the owner's CIK and name, plus an array of issuers they file for — each issuer entry includes its CIK, ticker, company name, the insider's role, total filing count, and first/last seen dates. Also includes an as_of timestamp and total count.
Example use cases
Researching an executive's ownership portfolio
“I want to understand all the public companies that Satya Nadella has filed SEC ownership forms for — can you search by his name over the past 3 years and show me each issuer, his role, and how many filings he's made?”
Mapping insider network by CIK
“I have the owner CIK 0001214128 for a known activist investor — can you pull every company they've filed SEC ownership disclosures for, including their roles and first and last filing dates?”
Compliance check on board member activity
“We're vetting a board member named Jennifer Reed — can you look her up by name and show me all the SEC issuers she's linked to through ownership filings over the past two years, with filing counts and dates?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://answerpool.io/v1/graph/personWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to build a complete picture of a single insider's presence across all SEC-registered issuers — their roles, filing history breadth, and activity timeline. Prefer this over the Insider Screen endpoint (which is transaction-focused and market-wide) when the research goal is person-centric: who is this person, where do they file, and how active are they? Especially useful for compliance research, relationship mapping, and board/officer due diligence where the entity of interest is the person, not the transaction.
Side effects
- No results if name substring is too short or misspelled — requires at least 2 characters
- Ambiguous name matches may return many unrelated persons — use owner_cik for precision
- Invalid owner_cik format (non-numeric or too long) returns validation error
- Days parameter out of range (below 7 or above 3650) returns validation error
- Limit parameter out of range (below 1 or above 100) returns validation error
- Payment required error if x402 payment is not provided or fails
- Empty persons array if the insider has no filings within the specified days window
