How this service works
[3-LEG] Regulatory filing chain, one issuer (?entity=AMC): leading NT late-filing notices, a distress leading indicator -> current 8-K material events graded by item severity -> realized Form 4 insider transactions (confirmation gate). A sequential chain, not one reading - confidence = how many legs are lit, in order. Sources: SEC EDGAR. Descriptive only, never a forecast or advice. No data -> 422 no_charge, not billed.
Output
Returns a structured object with: the entity key, a cross-line narrative describing whether insider behavior confirms or contradicts distress signals, individual signal legs (8-K severity, NT filing status, Form 4 insider net direction) each with current reading, observation timestamp, and record hash, plus provenance metadata (data age, freshness, data lineage traceable to SEC EDGAR), an honest scope/grade disclosure, and an offline-verifiable Ed25519-signed citation anchored to SEC EDGAR source data.
Example use cases
Distress check before shorting a stock
“Before I short Bed Bath & Beyond, can you pull their SEC distress triangle — I want the 8-K severity events, any NT late filings, and what insiders have been doing with their shares so I can see if the distress is being confirmed or denied internally?”
Portfolio risk monitoring for stressed holdings
“I hold some Revlon debt and want a quick SEC filing health check — pull the distress triangle for Revlon showing any material 8-K events, NT overdue filings, and Form 4 insider net activity so I can judge how bad things look.”
Due diligence on acquisition target distress signals
“We're evaluating a potential acquisition of Tupperware and need to understand their regulatory filing posture — get me the SEC distress triangle including recent 8-Ks flagged for impairment or default, NT late filings, and insider buy/sell patterns with the cross-validated narrative.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://aeml-x402.zeabur.app/gauge/filing-companyWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a single-call, multi-signal SEC filing distress snapshot for a named public company, combining 8-K severity events, NT late filings, and Form 4 insider signals with cross-validated narrative — all sourced directly from SEC EDGAR. Prefer this over scraping EDGAR manually or calling separate SEC APIs when you need the three signals interpreted together with freshness and provenance guarantees and a verifiable citation.
Side effects
- Unknown or non-public entity returns empty or error response
- Very recent filings may not yet be indexed, causing stale data
- If no NT or Form 4 filings exist, those legs may be null or absent
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402
- Highly illiquid or OTC companies may have sparse EDGAR coverage
- Data freshness may lag for quarterly or annual cadence filings
