What does paragraph-level indexing mean?

Search results return the specific paragraph containing your search terms, not the filing. No downloading or manual navigation required.

Can I search comment letters by Staff comment theme?

Yes. Comment letters indexed by Staff comment theme alongside ASC topic. Find all comments on variable consideration or segment aggregation across your sector.

How current is the index?

Updated as new filings and correspondence are published on EDGAR. No lag between EDGAR publication and searchability.

Can I export search results?

Yes. Every result exports with company, filing type, period, and EDGAR paragraph link. Ready for research packets or policy memos.

Can I filter by peer set?

Yes. Filter by ticker list, SIC code, GICS, or market cap range. Apply alongside any other search filter.

EDGAR Search

EDGAR search is how teams research peer disclosure, comment letter history, and filing precedent before drafting. Finrep indexes every 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, proxy, and comment letter at the paragraph level. Search by ASC topic, ticker, SIC code, or Staff comment theme. Each result links back to the source filing.

Today's reality

EDGAR Search without Finrep

EDGAR searches return filing-level results, not the specific paragraph
Comment letter research organized by date, not by topic or ASC focus area
Peer disclosure research requires downloading and reading each filing manually
No way to search across filing types simultaneously

SEC Reporting · Research

EDGAR has everything. Finding the right paragraph takes hours.

Before drafting a footnote or responding to a comment letter, someone on the team researches how peers handle the same topic. That means searching EDGAR by company, downloading the filing, finding the relevant section, and reading it. Then repeating for 10 more peers.

Comment letter research is worse. Staff comments are buried in correspondence files organized by date, not topic. Finding all Staff comments on ASC 606 variable consideration across your sector is a multi-day project, not a search.

What changes when EDGAR is searchable at the paragraph level

Paragraph-level index across all filing types

Every 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, proxy statement, and SEC comment letter indexed at the paragraph level. Search returns the specific text, not the filing. Covers all public company filings on EDGAR.

ASC topic and Staff comment theme search

Search by ASC codification topic (ASC 842-20, ASC 606-10-50) or by Staff comment theme (variable consideration, segment aggregation, going concern). Results span disclosures and comment letters simultaneously, showing how the topic appears in both.

Multi-filter search

Combine ASC topic with ticker, SIC code, date range, filing type, or peer set. Find all ASC 740 valuation allowance disclosures from SIC 7372 companies filed in the last 24 months. Results update in real time.

Source-linked export for research packets

Every result exports with source citation: company, filing type, period, and EDGAR paragraph link. Paste directly into disclosure committee packets, policy memos, or comment letter response files without manual transcription.
