About

InsiderTell fetches every SEC Form 4 within minutes of filing and scores it for conviction, with the insider's track record, cluster buying, price context and alerts. It also tracks stock trades by members of Congress under the STOCK Act, with each member's record against the S&P 500 and Berkshire Hathaway.

Features

Problem
Raw insider filings are numerous and hard to prioritize.
How it works
Fetches SEC Form 4 filings and ranks eligible open-market buys and sells by conviction.
Result
Users can scan ranked signals and inspect what drove each score.
Why
Role, trade size, relative size, price context, clusters, track record, and modifiers contribute to the score.
Problem
A single score can hide its assumptions and source.
How it works
Shows score components and links to the original SEC filing.
Result
Signals are more auditable and useful for independent research.
Why
Visible rules and source documents let readers verify the underlying evidence.
Problem
A filing alone does not show whether similar signals performed well.
How it works
Reports historical forward returns and hit rates by signal side, conviction tier, and horizon against the S&P 500.
Result
Readers can evaluate historical outcomes without treating them as forecasts.
Why
Sample sizes and completed measurement periods provide context for interpreting the results.
Problem
Insider activity can be difficult to spot across a company or multiple filers.
How it works
Highlights companies with many insiders trading and groups trades by insiders within a 14-day cluster window.
Result
Users can identify and investigate clusters of buying or selling.
Why
Concentrated activity can be examined alongside individual signal details.
Problem
Congressional disclosures are separate from SEC insider filings and may be reported with delays and amount ranges.
How it works
Lists House and Senate trades with dates, reported ranges, chamber, and links to original sources; also surfaces overlap with insider buying.
Result
Users can explore congressional trades alongside corporate insider activity.
Why
Showing disclosure context and sources helps readers interpret the public record.
Problem
Researchers may need timely updates or data in their own workflows.
How it works
Pro offers signals as they arrive, watchlists, email alerts, and digests; Desk adds API access and webhooks.
Result
Users can follow relevant activity manually or receive and consume updates through supported tools.
Why
Different plan levels support individual monitoring and integration into team tools.
