Search EDGAR, read 10-Ks and 10-Qs, follow 8-K material events, and track Form 4 insider buying and selling — primary-source SEC data, free, in a single research workflow built for serious investors.
Most retail tools paraphrase the SEC. OmniFolio gives you direct, structured access to the original filings — and the insider activity around them.
The SEC, made searchable
Search every public US company directly against the SEC’s EDGAR system. Look up 10-Ks, 10-Qs, 8-Ks, S-1s, 13Fs, DEF 14As and Form 4s by ticker, company name, or CIK — no scraping, no third-party middleman.
Annual and quarterly fundamentals
Pull annual 10-K reports and quarterly 10-Qs side by side to track revenue, margin, segment, and risk-factor changes over time. Built for the kind of patient fundamental research the SEC was designed to enable.
Real-time Section 16 disclosures
Every Form 4 insider buy and sell, surfaced within minutes of being accepted by the SEC. Filter open-market purchases (Code P) — the strongest single insider signal — from routine 10b5-1 selling.
Six SEC filing types do most of the work in serious public-equity research. OmniFolio surfaces all of them in one screen.
The single most important filing for fundamental research. Business, risk factors, MD&A, audited financials, and footnotes — once a year, in full.
Lighter quarterly version of the 10-K. Three per year (Q4 rolls into the 10-K). Where revenue, margin, and segment trends actually move.
Real-time material events. Mergers, leadership changes, debt, restatements, going-concern. The fastest official corporate news source.
Registration statement filed before going public. Full risk disclosure, financials, dilution, use-of-proceeds, and lockup terms.
Quarterly snapshot of every $100M+ institutional manager’s long US equity book. The official source for "what is Berkshire holding?"
Every Section 16 insider trade, filed within two business days. Code P (open-market buy) is the strongest signal in the dataset.
Most SEC traffic is noise. The interesting filings are the ones that change the fundamentals — or reveal what insiders actually believe.
A fresh 10-K or 10-Q on a name you follow is usually the highest-quality fundamental update you’ll get all quarter — get notified the moment it lands on EDGAR.
Mergers, executive changes, restatements, going-concern flags, debt events. The 8-K is where real-time corporate news shows up first — before the press release, before the headlines.
Code P purchases on Form 4 are the cleanest signal in public markets — insiders putting their own cash into the stock. Filter out the option-grant noise and watch what insiders actually buy.
