Free AI tools for SEC filings
Free options for SEC filings fall into two groups: primary-source access and AI analysis. SEC EDGAR is the free official source but offers raw filings with no AI. StockHuntr is a free tool that adds AI on top — you chat with a filing, get answers cited straight from the source, and see AI risk and concern scoring across 800+ US companies. Many advanced research platforms are paid.

StockHuntr
Anyone who wants free AI help understanding a filing — asking questions in plain language and getting answers cited from the source, with a quick AI read on risk — rather than reading dense documents unaided.

SEC EDGAR is ideal when you want the authoritative original document and are comfortable analyzing it yourself, with no AI layer between you and the primary source.
