Section 16 insider filing software

Section 16 does not wait for quarter-end. Officers, directors, and 10% holders need Forms 3, 4, and 5 filed on statutory clocks, with Form 4 due two business days from the transaction.

TakePublic keeps the insider roster, tracks Form 4 deadlines, drafts the forms from insider records, routes each one through your securities attorney, and submits under each insider's own EDGAR filer identity: the reporting person, not the company, is the filer of record. TakePublic is not a law firm; counsel signs every filing.

01

Maintain the insider roster

Keep officer, director, and 10% holder records with two-business-day Form 4 clocks on the compliance calendar.

02

Draft from insider records

TakePublic prepares Forms 3, 4, and 5 from the roster and transaction records.

03

Route through counsel

Your securities attorney reviews the form and gives hash-bound sign-off before submission.

04

File or export

After sign-off, TakePublic submits to EDGAR under the insider's own filer identity, or exports the package to your agent. Each reporting person is the filer of record for their own Forms 3, 4, and 5: the platform files with the insider's CIK and CCC, verified in TEST mode first, never the company's.

The two-business-day rule

Form 4 is due two business days from the transaction date. The compliance calendar computes that clock in Eastern Time with weekend and SEC holiday roll, and deadline alerts escalate until the form is filed or the obligation is waived.

Which plan includes it

Frequently asked questions

Which Section 16 forms does TakePublic file?

Forms 3, 4, and 5. Each is drafted from insider records, signed by your securities attorney, and filed to EDGAR.

When is Form 4 due?

Two business days from the transaction date, computed in Eastern Time with weekend and SEC holiday roll.

Does Monitor include Section 16 filing?

Monitor at $299 per month tracks the insider roster and Form 4 deadlines. Drafting, counsel sign-off, and filing for Forms 3, 4, and 5 require the Section 16 plan at $499 per month.

Who signs a Form 4 before it files?

Your securities attorney, working from the free counsel seat. Sign-off is bound to the document hash. TakePublic is not a law firm.

Can we keep our own EDGAR agent for Form 4s?

Yes. After counsel sign-off you can export the filing package and mark the form filed externally. Daily EDGAR reconciliation confirms the accession either way.
