Data & monitoring
Cleaned filings data, delivered before the U.S. open.
We ingest, clean, score and monitor SEC Form 4 insider filings and Senate periodic transaction reports every day — the same pipeline behind our published research, including a preregistered backtest across 750,659 insider purchases (2006–2026). That infrastructure is available as a service: morning feeds, watchlist alerts, custom datasets and hard-target acquisition.
No signup, no form. Both files are real output, unedited.
The delivery package
Everything you need to judge the data — and to build against it — before you talk to us. The payload is validated against the schema on every pipeline run; if the two ever disagree, our own job fails before anything ships.
What the cleaning layer does
- Deduplication and amendment resolution — superseded filings dropped, latest kept.
- Impossible-value quarantine — the $23B "insider buy" that is really a price-field typo never reaches you.
- Placement-pattern exclusion — ≥3 filers at one identical price is a program, not conviction; naive cluster screens miss this.
- Price-sanity checks against market close on every delivered record.
- Nothing is removed silently: every filter decision ships in the report, itemised, with the accession where one applies.
What that looks like on a real slice (Aug 6–20, 2026, the CSV above): 987 raw rows in, 861 out — one amendment conflict resolved, a "$23.6B purchase" price-typo quarantined, 18 rows without a ticker dropped, and 14 companies excluded where 3+ filers printed at one identical price (one had 30). Every row carries its SEC accession ID, so any line can be verified on EDGAR.
Is it complete?
We don't claim it — we reconcile it. Every morning each Form 4 / 4-A accession in EDGAR's own daily index is checked against our processing ledger, per filing, and the difference is published: coverage & reconciliation, updated daily. If a day doesn't reconcile, our own pipeline job fails and the day stays listed until it's resolved.
Services
A curated pre-market brief of anomalies in the latest filings — real clusters, serial buyers, big discretionary trades — delivered by email and JSON before the U.S. open. Your filters: tickers, sectors, size, insider roles.
Your tickers or filers, monitored on every pipeline run. New filing → flash to your inbox or webhook the same day, cleaned and scored. Built on the alerting layer we run for our own coverage.
Historical + daily delivery (CSV / JSON / lightweight API) filtered to your spec. Two decades of cleaned Form 4 history available. Judge the cleaning layer yourself with the free sample and the schema above — no conversation required.
Sources with no API, hostile rate limits or anti-bot walls. Our Senate feed runs through exactly such a wall daily. Any sector. We review each target's terms of use before taking a project.
Scope — stated in every delivery
- SEC Form 4 and 4/A, Table I (non-derivative) only. Table II is not delivered.
- Congressional side: Senate periodic transaction reports only. The House is not covered.
- Filings with several reporting owners are attributed to the first reporting owner.
- Senate PTR amounts are disclosed as ranges; where we carry a total it is a midpoint estimate, labelled as one.
How it works
- Email what you need: hello@followthefilings.io
- We scope it in writing — plain email, no calls needed (async-first studio).
- Feeds start with a 2-week free trial. Month-to-month after; cancel anytime.
FTF Data is a data provider, not an investment advisor. Our feeds describe public filings; nothing we deliver is investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security. Disclosed congressional amounts are ranges and are reported as ranges. Delivery is best-effort daily with transparent notice on source-portal outages and full backfill after restoration.
