Compare Plans
edgar.tools has four plans — Free, Professional, Analyst, and Enterprise. Every plan reads the same SEC filings; the tier decides how much you can track, how much you can pull through the API, and which AI capabilities you unlock. This page compares the load-bearing capabilities so you can pick the right plan, then upgrade from the pricing page.
Need the underlying data instead of a web/API seat? See the dataset catalog — per-dataset subscriptions from $24.99/mo, or a bespoke annual license for commercial use.
What each plan is for#
- Free — $0. Read every filing, run company and filing searches, and try the AI plugin's lookup tools. One watchlist, one API key.
- Professional — $24.99/mo. Track unlimited companies, get AI analysis on filings that match your Sentinels, and unlock exports plus the full research toolkit in the API and AI plugin.
- Analyst — $79.99/mo. Pipe filings into your own stack — webhook delivery, advanced search (proximity and disclosure search), the specialist Research Hubs for funds, advisors, and BDCs, and AI filing analysis with recipe prompts.
- Enterprise — custom. Run the SEC data layer underneath your team, product, or corpus under contract — SOC 2, SSO/SAML, DPA, a 99.9% SLA, and a named CSM. Sold as internal seats, OEM/embed, or a bulk data feed.

The curated feed on Free is a shared, system-generated inbox of recently analyzed filings — you don't configure it. Professional and above generate personalized analysis from your own Sentinels.
API access#
Every API request counts against a per-user daily quota tied to your plan. Free starts at 100 requests per day with a single API key; Professional and Analyst raise the daily cap and the number of keys you can mint; Enterprise limits are set per contract.
Rate-limit behavior is the same on every plan: quota windows are UTC, every response carries X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset headers, and exceeding the cap returns 429 with a Retry-After header. See Errors & Limits for the error shapes, retry strategy, and header reference.
MCP (AI plugin) access#
The MCP server advertises a tier-aware tool list: when your AI client calls tools/list, it sees only the tools your plan includes. Access widens as you climb.
- Free (Read). Company search, filing browsing, and a one-call company brief.
- Professional (Track). Adds the research toolkit — financials, insider and institutional signals, real-time material events, full-text search, and fund + advisor data.
- Analyst (Research). Adds AI filing analysis, narrative disclosure search, one-call aggregation bundles, and the recipe prompts that orchestrate them.
- Enterprise. The full Analyst tool surface under contract terms.
For the exact tool-to-tier mapping, see MCP Tiers.
How to upgrade#
Pick a plan on the pricing page. Professional and Analyst both include a 14-day trial (card required, no charge during the trial), and you can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel from your account settings at any time. Enterprise is contact-sales — reach out to support@edgar.tools to start a conversation.
After a paid upgrade, reconnect your MCP client so it picks up a fresh token tagged with your new tier — the newly unlocked tools appear on the next tools/list.
