Welcome to DebtStack

Corporate structure and debt analysis is complex. Even with AI, achieving accuracy, speed, and cost-effectiveness requires significant engineering. DebtStack does this hard work once, giving you instant API access to pre-computed, quality-assured credit data.

The Problem

Extracting accurate corporate structure and debt data from SEC filings is surprisingly hard:
  • Accuracy challenges: LLMs return malformed JSON, misinterpret amounts, confuse entity names
  • Speed variability: A single extraction can take 90-300 seconds with multiple LLM calls
  • Cost uncertainty: Ad-hoc extraction costs $0.03-0.50+ per company
  • Expertise required: Understanding 10-K structure, Exhibit 21, debt footnotes, VIEs
The Solution: DebtStack runs extraction once with rigorous QA, then serves pre-computed data via fast API.

Data Quality

Estimated data is always flagged. When data cannot be extracted and must be inferred:
  • issue_date_estimated: true - Issue date inferred from maturity date
  • Future estimated fields follow the same pattern

Data Freshness

DebtStack extracts directly from the latest SEC EDGAR filings, providing 12-18 months fresher data than LLMs like ChatGPT or Gemini.
