# Description
This dataset is a cleaned, model-ready version of SEC EDGAR filings.
- Source files are SEC `.htm` filings submitted between Jan 01, 2000 and Jan 01, 2026.
- Files were downloaded on a best-effort basis via EDGAR APIs; some filings may be missing due to source corruption or transient download failures.
- In total, 651,900 filings were downloaded and processed.
---
# Background
SEC 10-Q, 10-K, and 8-K filings are rich, high-value disclosures, but the raw HTML is optimized for human page layout rather than machine consumption.
Using raw EDGAR HTML directly for LLM training or inference is inefficient because:
- presentation markup (styles, layout wrappers, inline artifacts) can dominate token count without adding meaning,
- pagination artifacts (repeated headers/footers, page numbers) interrupt continuity,
- textual content is often fragmented by layout-oriented HTML structures.
---
# Intended Uses
We transform raw EDGAR HTML into a stable, model-friendly representation suitable for:
- **LLM pretraining**
- **long-context modeling**
- **information retrieval / RAG**
---
# How
In particular, we:
- Remove pagination artifacts: page numbers, repeated headers/footers, and similar print-format remnants.
- Normalize text: whitespace, broken line wraps, and inconsistent line breaks.
- Preserve structure: parse filings into sections, tables, and figures, then render to consistent text while tracking metadata (e.g., `numTables`, `numFig`).
- Keep table boundaries explicit using `\<|start_table|\>` and `\<|end_table|\>` markers. Tables remain in HTML format because many contain merged cells that are not represented cleanly in Markdown.

# Notes
- Token counts vary by tokenizer. Counts reported here were computed with the [marin-tokenizer](https://huggingface.co/stanford-crfm/marin-tokenizer) and should be treated as approximate length estimates.

# License and rights
This repo uses a custom license: EDDL v1.0 (see LICENSE).
EDDL grants broad rights to our contributions (annotations/markers/derived metadata and any included code),
but it does not grant rights in the underlying filing text (third-party authored content) even if redistributed
in normalized form. Do not describe the filing text as MIT/Apache/CC licensed unless you have independent rights.

# SEC source note
The SEC states that information presented on SEC.gov may be copied or further distributed without the SEC's
permission and requests appropriate citation; do not use SEC seals/logos/artwork. See NOTICE for details.

# Provenance requirements
If you redistribute this dataset (or substantial portions), you must keep the provenance fields
(CIK, accession number, filing date/type, EDGAR URL) so downstream users can locate the original filings.

# Version logs
- 2025-02-25: [Bug] Fixed an issue where roman page numbers are not detected. [Feature] A single table that was broken up into multiple ones across pages are now merged back into a single table.
