About EdgarHawk
Every Form 4. Every trading day.
Read by AI.
Roughly 306 insider trading filings have been processed since we switched the lights on. Most are noise. A handful are signal. EdgarHawk’s job is to find the signal.
The problem with Form 4
When a corporate insider — an officer, director, or 10% owner — trades their company’s stock, SEC Form 4 requires them to file within two business days. Thousands of filings cross EDGAR each week.
Buried in that avalanche are the trades that matter: the CEO who just bought a million dollars of their own stock at a 52-week low; the CFO quietly dumping shares ahead of earnings; the director cluster-buying together for the first time in a decade.
You’re not going to read them all. Neither are we. We let a model do it.
How EdgarHawk works
-
1
Poll SEC EDGAR in near-real-time
A poller fetches the EDGAR Form 4 feed on a short interval, parses the XML, and writes every new filing to our database.
-
2
Filter out the noise
Automatic grants, tax-withholding sales, and tiny routine trades are stripped before anything touches the AI. Only filings with real signal potential move forward.
-
3
Triage with Claude
Each surviving filing gets read by Anthropic’s Claude. It scores significance from 0–10, categorizes the trade, and writes a short plain-English summary of why it matters.

Email you the ones that count
If a triaged filing matches a ticker on your watchlist, you get an email within minutes — with the transaction details, the AI summary, and a link straight to the filing on EDGAR. Pro users can also opt into alerts for every high-priority insider buy, market-wide.
What EdgarHawk is not
It’s not investment advice. The AI can be wrong, the SEC data can be stale, and past insider behavior is a terrible predictor of next quarter’s stock price. EdgarHawk is a research tool that makes public data easier to watch — what you do with that information is your call.
It’s also not a broker, a financial adviser, or a magic crystal ball. Read the disclaimer before you act on anything you see here.
