How this service works
Pay-per-call API for normalized SEC EDGAR financial data: company financials, XBRL facts, filings, industry benchmarks, peer comparison and stock screening. USDC via x402 or API keys. 20,000+ US public companies, refreshed nightly.
Output
A JSON object containing the metric name and an array of cohort objects, each with: the number of companies (n), the median value of the metric, a size bucket label (e.g. 'large'), and the SIC industry group code. Enables direct benchmarking of a company's financial ratio against its industry peers segmented by size.
Example use cases
Benchmarking startup's gross margin
“Our SaaS startup has a 58% gross margin — how does that stack up against large public software companies? Pull the industry benchmark aggregate for gross_margin in SIC group 73 so I can compare.”
Equity analyst industry comparison
“I'm writing a research note on industrial manufacturing. Can you get me the median operating margin across different company size buckets for that industry using SEC fundamentals data?”
PE firm due diligence screening
“We're evaluating an acquisition target with 12% ROE — what's the median return on equity across large-cap companies in their sector based on SEC filings? Get the aggregate benchmark for roe.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://sec.multyplylabs.com/aggregate/%7Bmetric%7DWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need industry-level aggregate benchmarks (median by size bucket and SIC group) for a specific financial metric across the entire US public company universe. Prefer this over the peer comparison endpoint when you want sector-wide statistics rather than a specific company's metrics vs. its peers, and over the stock screener when you want distribution statistics rather than a filtered list of companies.
Side effects
- Invalid metric name returns an error or empty cohort array
- Unknown or unsupported SIC industry group yields no results
- Metric with sparse data may return cohorts with very low n values, reducing statistical reliability
- Network or payment authorization failure (x402) blocks the call
- Nightly refresh lag may mean very recent filings are not yet reflected
