# AnswerPool Restatement Filings

> AnswerPool Restatement Filings is a paid API for AI agents from answerpool.io, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-16).

Lists SEC 8-K filings disclosing non-reliance on previously issued financials (Item 4.02) — a pre-filtered restatement alert feed across all public companies.

## 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-restatement-filings-3024f67f
```

Example prompt: Pull the last 50 SEC restatement filings from AnswerPool — companies that declared non-reliance on their financials (8-K Item 4.02) — going back to August 1st, 2026, and give me the tickers, company names, and filing links.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint instead of manually filtering a raw 8-K feed when you specifically need Item 4.02 non-reliance disclosures — the rarest and highest-salience accounting event in SEC filings. It is pre-filtered, saving the cost and complexity of parsing the full 8-K tape yourself. Prefer it over AnswerPool's generic 8-K item endpoint when restatements are your sole focus, and over the Distress Screen when you want only the restatement signal without blending it with bankruptcy or delisting noise.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid 'since' date format returns a 400 validation error
- Limit out of range (below 1 or above 200) returns a 422 unprocessable entity
- No restatements in the requested window returns an empty events array with count 0
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC triggers a 402 Payment Required response
- Stale index: filings from the last 15 minutes may not yet be indexed

## 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 a timestamp, a count of matched events, and an array of restatement events — each containing event ID, accession number, CIK, ticker, company name, form type (8-K), event type, occurrence timestamp, flags, a relevance score, a payload with filing details, and a direct SEC filing URL. Also includes metadata like the index start time and a since cursor for pagination.
