When your product needs company data

Your users will ask where a number came from.

SourceKeel turns what companies file with regulators into data you can build on. Every value keeps a link to the filing behind it, so you can answer them.

01

The filings are free. Dependable data takes work.

Anyone can download SEC filings. Turning them into data you can ship means reading HTML with XBRL tags inside it, following tags that change from one year to the next, and catching amendments that restate numbers. The coverage page links every official source we use and shows what doing it yourself involves.

Before you build it yourself

What would it take to do this in house?

02

Every value names its filing.

Each number comes with the accession number of the filing that reported it, and the original document is one more call away. When a company files an amendment, the change shows up in the same company record, with both filings named.

When a number looks wrong

Which filing said that, and can I show it to my users?

03

Missing means missing.

If a filing does not report a value, you get a clear not-found answer with the reason. The API does not fill the gap with an estimate, and a free coverage check tells you what exists for a company before you spend a call.

Before you show a blank

Did the company leave this out, or did my data feed drop it?

04

We build on it ourselves.

Helmbeam, our research product, runs on SourceKeel. The data behind your product is the same data behind ours, so we have every reason to keep it right.

Before you depend on it

Does the team behind it rely on it too?

A letter from the founder

Why I built SourceKeel

I'm Ola. I'm a software engineer, and I built SourceKeel for people who ship products on company data.

That data has gaps. A value goes missing, and your feed hands you a blank or a zero, and you can't tell which one you got. A company files an amendment, and a number you already showed a customer is now wrong, with nothing to warn you. When a customer asks where a number came from, you often can't point to the filing.

The filings themselves are free. Anyone can download them from the SEC. Turning them into data you can trust is the hard part.

So I built what I wished existed. SourceKeel keeps the filing behind every value, and the original document is one more call away. When something is missing, it tells you so and why, and it doesn't fill the gap with a guess.

Established data vendors charge thousands a year for company data like this. SourceKeel is free to try with a sandbox key, no card needed, and paid plans start at $10 a month.

It won't give you investment advice or tell you what to do with the numbers.
