What 'insider trading' means here
This page refers to insider transactions reported through SEC ownership filings. The API is not about illegal trading allegations; it is a structured interface over public Form 4 disclosures.
- Open-market purchases and sales are identified through SEC transaction codes P and S.
- Technical events such as grants, option exercise, gifts and tax withholding remain visible but are not directional equivalents.
- Filing dates, transaction dates and SEC accession identifiers are exposed when available.
- Derived analytics are descriptive and should be labeled accordingly.
Commercial use cases
The API fits products that need fresh targeted data without downloading the full research release for every request.
- Ticker pages with latest insider buys, sales and transaction-code summaries.
- Executive profile pages that combine aggregate activity and recent rows.
- Alerting systems for large transactions or cluster-buy behavior.
- Internal analyst dashboards that monitor daily Form 4 flow.

Common questions
Can this power an investor dashboard?
Yes, if the dashboard presents Form 4 data and descriptive analytics clearly. It should not imply that API fields are trading recommendations.
What is the difference between API and dataset access?
The API is best for targeted application requests. The dataset is better for full-history backtests, local joins and large batch research.
