A real time event stream: the value of edgar.tools
edgar.tools is a real-time event stream of SEC filings - for humans clicking through Live Filings and AI agents triggering workflows on every 8-K, Form 4 and 10-K.
I spent some time thinking about value this week - mostly about the value of the work I've been immersed in. As edgartools crossed 1 million monthly downloads in the last week of April, its value to investors, quants and researchers is obvious.
But what's the value proposition of edgar.tools - the platform I've been building? Same or different? I've been mulling, and the last two weeks sharpened it.
It's a place to watch and respond to SEC filings as they happen.
Live Filings is the core. A real-time feed where you - a person - can click into any filing, extract what matters, and trigger your own cognitive workflow.

The same feed runs without a UI - an event stream that AI agents consume and act on.
A real-time event stream of SEC filings that humans and AI can work on. Filings used to be documents you read. Now they're events you react to. For a human, that means a click takes you from a feed item to an extracted brief to whatever comes next - a note, a memo, a position, a decision.

For an AI agent, the same stream becomes a trigger surface - matched to your tickers, your watchlist, your thesis, firing the cognitive workflow you've defined.

edgartools put a million people a month inside SEC filings. Edgar.tools is what they - and their agents - do once they're there. The feed is live at app.edgar.tools/live - no signup needed. Start a trial when you want to point it at your tickers.
