What it does for your agent

sec_filing_browse is the first step in SEC Filing’s progressive-disclosure pattern: given a U.S. ticker, it returns the metadata list of available 10-K / 10-Q / 8-K filings (no section text). Use it to discover what filings exist for a company, then call sec_filing_read to fetch the actual section content — by year / quarter for 10-K / 10-Q, or by accession_number for 8-K (event-driven, many per year). Every filing also carries section_keys — the section codes available for it — so an agent can tell what an 8-K is about before reading a single line. Browse is not semantic search: it accepts only a ticker + optional filing_type filter. No keyword matching, no relevance ranking, no natural-language queries.

Response

data

Filing[]

required

Array of SEC filings sorted by filing_date descending.

Show Filing fields

sec_filing_id

string

required

Stable LLMQuant filing id. Consistent across requests.

ticker

string

required

The ticker symbol (uppercased).

company_name

string

Company name as filed with the SEC.

filing_type

string

required

Filing type — 10-K, 10-Q, or 8-K.

accession_number

string

required

SEC accession number (e.g. 0000320193-25-000079). Pass this to sec_filing_read to target the exact filing.

filing_date

string

required

Date the filing was submitted to the SEC (YYYY-MM-DD).

report_date

string

The reporting period covered by the filing (YYYY-MM-DD). Null when SEC does not report it.

url

string

required

Canonical SEC EDGAR link.

section_keys

string[]

required

The sections you can read from this filing — e.g. 8-K ["item2.02","item9.01","ex99.1"], 10-K ["1","1A","7", …]. An empty [] means none are listed yet. Pass any code to sec_filing_read to pull that section. The codes also tell you what an 8-K is: item2.02 is earnings, item5.02 an executive change — no need to open it first.

meta.creditsUsed

number

Always 0 — browse is free.

meta.remainingCredits

number

Account credits remaining.

Notes

Two-step lookup is canonical for SEC filings: sec_filing_browse returns the list of filings (free), then sec_filing_read extracts a specific section (1 credit). Pass the accession_number from browse straight into read for unambiguous targeting.

Every filing carries section_keys — the section codes available for it. For 8-K (many per year, all named “8-K”) this is how an agent picks the right one without reading it: item2.02 = earnings, item5.02 = executive change, ex99.1 = press-release exhibit. Pass the codes you want straight into sec_filing_read’s items.

Published filings never change, so a result stays valid for good. The first lookup for a ticker may take a moment; every repeat is instant.

10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K supported. 20-F and proxy (DEF 14A) filings are not currently supported.

No date-range filter (filed_at_gte / filed_at_lte) and no CIK lookup. Only ticker (+ optional filing_type) is accepted.
