Company resolution
Look up by ticker, CNPJ, or name. Ambiguous queries return candidates — the API never guesses.
CVM API for Brazil filings.
Resolve companies, list filings, download originals, extract page-level markdown.
What you get
Brazilian regulatory filings, structured for automation.
Skip the CVM portal. Query Brazil filings with a CVM API. A Brazil EDGAR / Brazilian SEC-style CVM API: resolve public companies, list fatos relevantes and corporate disclosures, download originals, and extract page-level markdown that preserves tables, charts, and visual structure — continuously updated as new CVM filings arrive, ready for data pipelines and AI agents.
DFP, ITR, FRE and IPE
Annual statements, quarterly reports, reference forms, material facts, market announcements, investor presentations, shareholder notices, and meeting minutes.
Original files
Stream the source PDF from CVM. Keep a pointer to the filing, not just extracted text.
Page-level extraction
Extract page-level markdown designed to preserve tables, charts, headings, and visual structure for downstream agents. Pages arrive on your callback URL as they complete.
Query the section you need.
You can query the part of the filing you actually need. List FRE prefixes, then filter by name — no need to pull the full form for risk factors alone.

FAQ
Quick answers.
Is this like SEC EDGAR for Brazil?
Close analogy, different source. People search for a Brazil EDGAR or Brazilian SEC API when they want EDGAR-like access to Brazilian issuers — apicvm is a CVM API / Brazil financial filings API over CVM documents, not SEC EDGAR itself. See Brazil CVM vs SEC EDGAR and what a fato relevante is.
How is apicvm different from the official CVM open data portal?
The official portal publishes bulk ZIP/CSV dumps. apicvm is a product API: resolve companies, filter filings by ticker/type/year, download originals, and extract text via callbacks — without hand-parsing portal dumps.
Do I have to download a full FRE to analyze one section?
Often, no. Call GET /v1/document-prefixes?type=FRE, then filter
/v1/documents with the name parameter before downloading or extracting.
Which document types are available?
GET /v1/documents accepts DFP, ITR, FRE,
FATO_RELEVANTE, COMUNICADO_AO_MERCADO,
APRESENTACAO_INVESTIDORES, AVISO_AOS_ACIONISTAS, and
ATA_ASSEMBLEIA. /v1/document-prefixes only applies to DFP, ITR, and FRE
because those filings are split into section-level documents.
What are extraction credits?
1 credit = 1 page. Pro includes 1,000 credits/month that do not roll over. Prepaid packs (1,000 / 5,000 / 10,000 at $10 / $50 / $100) do not expire. Buy packs from the dashboard.
What if I do not have enough credits?
The POST still returns 202. The prepare job counts pages (N); if your
balance is below N, your callback receives status: "error" with
error_code: EXTRACTION_CREDITS_EXCEEDED and nothing is processed or debited.
Are there rate limits?
Yes. Free (3-day key): 60 requests/min — no markdown extraction.
Student ($3/month): 100 requests per UTC day plus 60 requests/min — no markdown
extraction. Pro ($9/month): 60 requests/min; extraction uses page credits. Exceeding
the window returns 429 RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED.
How does text extraction work?
POST /v1/document-text-extractions returns 202 with a job id. Pages are
delivered to your callback_url as markdown designed to preserve tables, charts,
headings, and visual structure. The original filing stays available for audit. Pro only; Free and
Student get 403 FORBIDDEN.
How fresh is the data?
Continuously updated as new CVM filings arrive. When a document is published or refreshed at the source, it becomes available through the API without waiting on bulk portal dumps.
