Earlier quoted context omitted.

Thank you for the suggestion

Look now that the site loads, is it a bit sketchy that you are asking 50 dollars subscription, one can't even navigate the site a bit without subscribing. You don't even have a working and tested product and already want to make money.

The explore page is free and always will be. The main site shows real time changes too, just capped at a few recent ones. The $50 is for the full feed, alerts, search, comp data. Comparable to other sales intel tools but I hear you on letting people try more before paying. Gonna work on that.

Fun project but meh on subscription. This data already exists in much better detail including full network graphs of people and many additional data points. Financial data is a hard problem because it’s not only hard to offer something new but also your only real consumer unless novel data is going to be retail.

Agreed, the big providers like Bloomberg cover this space with way more depth. I'm building for the teams that can't justify those budgets (small sales teams, independent recruiters, solo advisors)

What’s the value add though? This could be vibe coded out in a couple hours of coding and some more incremental time to process historical filings.

And I don’t mean this in a negative way simply that this is just a 30min UI around a 1 hour LLM data pipeline.

What would also be very interesting is a graph of relationships and movements. Let's see just how incestuous the boards really are, and what's going on with serial CEOs who move from one business to the next.

Northdata [1] does basically this, but mostly ingests European data currently. Perhaps they will expand to ingest US data as well at some point. Not affiliated with them in any way. I just use them to look into company structures every now and again.

Nice job! Is there a way to double click on any name to see more details on the person like previous positions or current compensation?

Thanks - currently the name just links to a basic linkedin search but this is a good idea for a future feature

did you write the SEC parsers yourself or use oss/off the shelf tech?

Built it myself. The filing structure is somewhat consistent enough to parse programmatically, then an LLM handles the unstructured parts (with a lot of trial and error)

Getting “literally who” vibes from the list of execs that were listed with a job title but not a company name.

Mobile browser, if that makes a difference (maybe one of the people on the list helped me downsize as well at some point without me realizing it).

I think one of the interesting things here is that many senior executives make similar base pay to very senior ICs. The primary compensation difference is in their equity compensation, where executives get massive PSU/RSU packages, while senior ICs get much more modest packages. A senior IC may have 30-50% of their compensation as stock, while a typical senior executives may have as much as 97% of their compensation as stock.

I think this is a good thing? At least from the perspective of aligning incentives with shareholders?
