Proxy Statements API for Corporate Governance Transparency

Access proxy statements with clean metadata and consistent structure for governance and shareholder analysis.

Proxy data should not slow governance analysis

Accessing proxy statements often involves manual review of long documents. Teams download filings, search for key disclosures, and extract governance details by hand. This slows analysis and increases effort across compliance and research workflows.

Unstructured Governance Disclosures

Proxy statements contain critical governance details buried across lengthy documents. Without structure, locating key sections becomes time consuming.

Inconsistent Historical Comparisons

Comparing board composition or compensation across years requires stable formatting and identifiers.

Delayed Access to Voting Information

Proxy disclosures guide shareholder decisions. Late access reduces their usefulness.

One API for Proxy Statement Analysis

Quantillium’s Proxy Statements API provides structured access to DEF 14A filings through a simple REST interface. You receive clean metadata, direct document access, and historical coverage designed for governance, compliance, and research workflows.
