## 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 us-company-profile-sec-b08e00de
```

Example prompt: Pull up the SEC profile for Apple — ticker AAPL — I need their legal name, SIC industry code, state of incorporation, fiscal year end, and a link to their latest 10-K.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, SEC-sourced company identity data for a US-listed company — especially legal name, incorporation details, SIC codes, and links to official filings. Prefer this over third-party financial data providers when regulatory accuracy and direct EDGAR provenance matter, such as for due diligence, compliance workflows, or building a company data enrichment pipeline. It is the right choice when you have a ticker or CIK and need structured profile metadata rather than financial statements (use the companion fundamentals endpoint for those).

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown ticker/CIK returns a 404 or empty result
- Ticker for a delisted or OTC company may not be found in EDGAR
- Some smaller filers may have incomplete profile fields (e.g. missing website or phone)
- Rate limiting or service downtime on the Render-hosted backend may return 5xx errors
- Foreign private issuers listed on US exchanges may have limited SEC profile data

## How this service works

SEC profile of a US-listed company: legal name, tickers and exchanges, industry (SIC), state of incorporation, fiscal year end, business address and phone, website, former names, filer category and links to the latest 10-K and 10-Q. Use for due diligence and company research.

## Output

Returns a structured profile object containing the company's legal name, ticker symbols, exchange listings, SIC industry code and description, state of incorporation, fiscal year end month/day, business mailing address and phone, company website, any former names, SEC filer category, CIK number, and direct links to the most recently filed 10-K and 10-Q on EDGAR.
