## Frequently Asked Questions

01

### Why is this 120 credits per call vs 15 for web search?

SEC EDGAR filings, US earnings transcripts, and equity statistics are proprietary, expensive to license, and require ongoing index maintenance. The 120 credit price (≈ $0.12 per call) reflects that — still a fraction of what dedicated SEC analytics platforms charge for an API seat.

02

### Which filing types are covered?

All EDGAR filings — 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, S-1, proxy statements, etc. — plus US earnings call transcripts and computed equity statistics. Pass a ticker, company name, or natural-language query.

03

### Can I get the full filing text?

Results include passages with source URLs. To pull the full document, follow up with `POST /api/extract` on the URL — this gives you clean markdown ready for LLM ingestion.

04

### Date filtering?

Yes. Pass `start_date` and `end_date` in `YYYY-MM-DD` to scope results to a specific filing window.

05

### Tool schema for OpenAI / Claude?

`GET /api/search/sec/tool-schema` returns ready-to-paste OpenAI function and Claude tool-use definitions.
