How this service works
Answers 'What happened at this company lately?': did the CEO or CFO leave, latest earnings, acquisitions, major contracts, cyber incidents, auditor changes, shareholder votes. Returns a US public company's latest 8-K filings from SEC EDGAR as clean text, with event types and the attached press releases (e.g. the full earnings release). Filter by event type and date, or one exact filing; up to 10 events. By ticker or CIK. Not charged if nothing matches. $0.01 USDC per call.
Output
Returns a JSON object with the company name, ticker, CIK, and an array of 8-K events. Each event includes the filing date, event date, accession number, a list of reported item codes with titles, the full text of the 8-K body, and optionally the full text of attached press-release exhibits (EX-99), plus a flag indicating whether the text was truncated and the direct SEC filing URL.
Example use cases
Earnings release monitoring for analysts
“Get me the 3 most recent earnings 8-Ks for Microsoft (MSFT), filtering to item code 2.02, filed since 2023-01-01, and include the press release exhibits so I can read the actual revenue numbers.”
Cybersecurity incident disclosure tracker
“Has Salesforce filed any cybersecurity incident 8-Ks? Pull up to 5 of their most recent filings under item 1.05 so I can check what they disclosed.”
Executive departure alerts for portfolio companies
“I want to know about any executive or director changes at Tesla — give me their 5 most recent 8-Ks filtered to item 5.02 with the full exhibit text.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://x402-agent-api.onrender.com/api/v1/sec-recent-events?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need structured, text-rich 8-K event data including press release exhibit text for a specific US public company, especially for earnings announcements, M&A disclosures, cybersecurity incidents, or executive changes. Prefer this over generic web scraping when you need clean, authoritative SEC-sourced content with item-level filtering. It is ideal for agents that need to monitor material corporate events or extract financial narrative from official filings without handling EDGAR directly.
Side effects
- Invalid or unrecognized ticker returns an error or empty result
- CIK not found in EDGAR returns 404 or empty events array
- No filings match the specified item codes or date range, returning count:0
- Malformed accession_number pattern causes validation error
- Rate limiting or upstream SEC EDGAR unavailability may cause 5xx errors
- Payment signature missing or invalid returns HTTP 402 with PAYMENT-REQUIRED header
