MCP server for SEC filings and company financial data
Ticker Scout runs a free Model Context Protocol server at https://mcp.tickerscout.ai/mcp. It gives an AI agent six tools over the financial statements, 10-K and 10-Q summaries and 8-K event histories of 24 public companies, all built from their filings with the SEC. There is no API key, no signup and no paywall. The tools return only what you ask for, so an agent can read one section of a filing summary instead of downloading the whole document.

Tools
| Tool | Arguments | Returns |
|---|---|---|
| list_companies | query (optional) | Every company covered, with the fiscal period of its latest data and the predicted date of its next SEC filing. Resolves a company name to a ticker. |
| get_company | ticker | Identity and coverage manifest: name, CIK, exchange, SIC industry, the fiscal period held, and the accession number it came from. |
| get_key_figures | ticker | Headline figures for the latest reported period: revenue, net income, diluted EPS and similar, each with its year-over-year change and source accession. |
| get_financials | ticker, sections (optional) | Income statement, balance sheet, cash flow, segment revenue and per-share figures. Request one section instead of the whole file when that is all you need. |
| get_narrative | ticker, section (optional) | Business description, risk factors, MD&A, legal proceedings and subsequent events from the latest 10-K and 10-Q. Returns a section index by default. |
| get_events | ticker, section (optional) | Material 8-K filings over roughly the trailing five quarters: earnings, management changes, capital returns and financing, each citing its accession. |
Source
The server is open source under the MIT license: github.com/tickerscout/tickerscout-mcp. It is listed in the official MCP registry as ai.tickerscout/ticker-scout. It holds no data of its own; every tool call reads the same files published on this site, so what a tool returns and what a page shows cannot disagree.
FAQ · MCP server
Is there a free MCP server for SEC filings and company financials?
Yes. Ticker Scout runs one at https://mcp.tickerscout.ai/mcp. It is free, needs no API key and no signup, and exposes financial statements, 10-K and 10-Q summaries and 8-K event histories for 24 public companies as MCP tools. The transport is streamable HTTP, so any MCP client that supports remote servers can add it with the URL alone.
How do I connect Claude to Ticker Scout's MCP server?
In Claude Code, run: claude mcp add --transport http ticker-scout https://mcp.tickerscout.ai/mcp. In a client that reads an mcpServers config file, such as Cursor, add an entry named ticker-scout with the url https://mcp.tickerscout.ai/mcp. In Claude on the web or desktop, add it as a custom connector under Settings, then Connectors, and paste the same URL.
What data does the Ticker Scout MCP server return?
Six tools: list_companies, get_company, get_key_figures, get_financials, get_narrative and get_events.

All money is in actual dollars and all share counts are actual shares. No market price data is published.
