Introduction

The AskEdgar API gives you direct access to the same data powering AskEdgar structured, searchable, and ready to integrate into your trading tools, screeners, and research workflows.

We parse SEC filings so you don't have to. Every endpoint returns clean, structured JSON extracted from EDGAR filings, corporate actions, and our proprietary analysis layer.

How it works

All requests go through a single base URL and authenticate via an API-KEY header. Data is billed on a usage-based credit system — you can estimate costs before making any request using our cost estimate endpoint.

curl "https://eapi.askedgar.io/v1/dilution-rating?ticker=DVLT" \
  -H "API-KEY: your_api_key"

Every response follows a consistent shape:

{
  "status": "success",
  "count": 1,
  "message": null,
  "has_more": false,
  "page": 1,
  "limit": 10,
  "results": [...]
}

Pagination, filtering, and date ranges work the same across all endpoints. Learn the pattern once, use it everywhere.

📊
Data coverage: AskEdgar's audited numeric data currently covers companies under ~$1B market cap. For larger companies, the affected numeric fields (cash, burn, ownership %, float metrics, etc.) come back null and the response message explains why.
