Stop Overpaying Your Filing Agent.
Federal Filings has handled EDGAR submissions for small-cap Nasdaq issuers for 20+ years. Our AI-assisted workflow means faster turnarounds and first-submission accuracy — and you’ll always reach a senior specialist directly, not a ticket queue.
You’re likely paying legacy rates for slower, manual work.
Most small-cap issuers haven’t revisited their filing agent in years. Per-page pricing, opaque line items, and manual conversion add up — while AI-assisted filing has made that pricing model obsolete. Here’s how a modern agent compares.
| Traditional / Legacy Agents | Federal Filings | |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Per-page or per-line, rarely renegotiated, hard to budget | Transparent, predictable pricing — no per-page surprises |
| Turnaround | Manual conversion that slows down on tight filing timelines | AI-assisted conversion for faster turnarounds |
| iXBRL Tagging | Manual tagging, more prone to errors and amendments | AI-assisted iXBRL validation, Levels 1–4, US-GAAP & IFRS |
| Accuracy | Errors surface after the SEC comment letter arrives | Pre-flight checks catch filing errors before submission |
| Access | Ticket queue and an account-manager buffer | A dedicated account manager who’s a senior EDGAR specialist |
| Switching | Platform lock-in — switching feels like starting over | We pick up your filings from any platform — and file anything on demand |
| Free Tools | Charge for deadline and fee calculators | Free Deadline & Fee Calculators, open to everyone |
Catch errors before the SEC does.
Accuracy protects your budget and your board exposure at the same time. Our validation process stands between a clean filing and a comment letter.
Pre-flight + iXBRL validation
AI-assisted iXBRL validation and EDGAR pre-flight checks catch filing errors before submission — the document is correctly formatted and every exhibit is attached, so you avoid comment letters on technicalities.
US-GAAP & IFRS, Levels 1–4
Full taxonomy coverage handled by senior specialists — not offshore generalists working from a script.
First-submission standard
First-submission acceptance is the standard we hold ourselves to, because it matters to your team as much as it matters to ours.
The person filing your document is the person you can call.
A dedicated account manager who’s a senior EDGAR specialist — not a ticketing system, not a buffer between you and the work. The worst moment to be routed through a queue is the hour before a filing is due.
Switching doesn’t mean starting over.
The biggest reason issuers stay with an agent they’ve outgrown is the fear of switching mid-cycle. It’s a smaller move than it feels.

What does an SEC filing agent cost?
Pricing depends on your filing volume and complexity, but it shouldn’t be a black box. Federal Filings uses transparent, predictable pricing with no per-page surprises, and most issuers switching from a legacy agent reduce their annual filing spend significantly — because our AI tooling cuts the manpower per filing while legacy agents charge the same rates.

How do I switch SEC filing agents without disrupting my filing calendar?
Switching doesn’t mean starting over. We pick up your filings from whatever platform or agent you used before — no rebuild — and senior specialists who’ve run dozens of transitions handle the first filing. We also file anything on demand that falls outside a self-service platform.
How do I choose an SEC filing agent?
Look at five things: pricing transparency, turnaround speed, accuracy controls (EDGAR pre-flight and iXBRL validation), whether you get direct access to a senior specialist or a ticket queue, and whether you’re locked into one platform. Federal Filings is built to win on all five.
Will switching mid-cycle risk a missed deadline?
No. Your transition is handled by senior EDGAR specialists who have moved companies between agents many times, and we’re available 24/7/365 including federal holidays. In 20+ years we’ve seen the edge cases — yours included.
Do you support iXBRL Levels 1–4 and both US-GAAP and IFRS?
Yes. We handle full inline XBRL tagging across Levels 1–4 in both US-GAAP and IFRS taxonomies, with AI-assisted validation and EDGAR pre-flight checks before every submission so errors are caught before they reach the SEC.
