Question was about financials. The service is not only limited to q forms, obviously. Historical data or government trades are not available there. So you want me to share with the Internet all my data sources just to prove you it's not a scam?

You seem to be trying to promote a service and throw weird accusations that the service looks like a scam without even trying it, which is shameful tbh.

Again no disrespect, it’s blunt honesty. I am not promoting anything. I live in the US and work at the intersection of finance and software. Your site has quite literally zero details on it. It’s a bunch of fluff on the landing page. Why would anyone signup without any information about what they are signing up for. Your response to a question about sourcing it’s odd. You only mention 10qs which you built a scraper for but the docs you linked to don’t really have much in the way of 10q data. Some surface metadata but none of the guts of a 10q. Most of the data you linked to is market data that you would have to be sourcing through a third party. It’s just an odd response for someone like me who works in the industry that you mention 10q but none of the data is really what I would consider 10q data.

Wish you luck but don’t take honest opinions from someone who buys significant amounts of financial data as someone trying to promote a service. Just linking someone I would consider a competitor to yours in the Edgar space.

The question is about financials and nothing you linked to is about financials.
