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 list of flagged SEC events (up to 200 per call), each containing the ticker, company, CIK, form type, event type, occurrence timestamp, flags array (e.g. 'large_insider_buy'), a relevance score, a structured payload with transaction details, a filing URL, and an accession number. Also includes metadata: as_of timestamp, since cursor used, count of events, next_cursor for incremental polling, and index_started_at.
Example use cases
Portfolio SEC event monitoring
“Scan for any new flagged SEC filings or insider trades on my watchlist — AAPL, NVDA, TSLA, AMZN, and META — since my last check at '2026-08-25T00:00:00', return up to 100 events.”
Insider buy alert for hedge fund
“Pull all flagged insider buy events for JEF, GS, MS, BAC, and C since '2026-08-01T00:00:00' — I want to see any large insider purchases flagged in the last month.”
Material event detection for earnings workflow
“Check whether any of these tickers — NFLX, DIS, PARA, WBD, CMCSA — have filed flagged 8-Ks or raised capital since '2026-08-20T00:00:00', limit to 50 results so I can triage them.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://answerpool.io/v1/sec/watchlistWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to monitor SEC events across a portfolio of up to 25 tickers efficiently without making separate EDGAR API calls per symbol. It is ideal for agentic workflows that need incremental, cursor-based polling — storing the next_cursor and only fetching new events since the last run. Prefer it over raw EDGAR polling when you want pre-flagged, scored events (insider buys, 8-K items, raises) rather than raw filings. Not suitable for single-ticker deep historical research or full filing text retrieval.
Side effects
- More than 25 tickers submitted — request rejected or truncated
- Invalid cursor format causes a 400 error
- Ticker not found in EDGAR index returns no events (not an error, just empty)
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402
- EDGAR index lag means very recent filings (under 15 min) may not appear yet
