OMNI Datastream vs AskEdgar

AskEdgar launched 2026-04-22 as a focused dilution-intelligence product for small-cap operators. It ships a curated dilution schema, an AI Copilot UI, and a per-KB API priced for tactical workflows. OMNI ships parity on the dilution data — every entity AskEdgar models, plus a few they don’t — and adds 38 endpoint families they don’t touch. Each OMNI dilution row carries an askedgar_url field, so customers running both products can dual-source during cutover.

Dilution endpoint coverage

OMNI ships 14 REST endpoints under /v1/dilution/* plus 14 mirrored dilution.* MCP tools. AskEdgar productizes a related but smaller set under https://api.askedgar.com/v1. Mapping for the most common queries:

Verification model

OMNI returns a 6-dimension verification block on every dilution row. AskEdgar returns a single boolean. The shape difference matters when an agent needs to gate downstream actions on confidence or trace a number back to a source span:
// AskEdgar
{ "verified": true }

// OMNI
{
  "verification": {
    "confidence": 0.94,
    "crossValidationsPassed": 3,
    "sourceSpanResolved": true,
    "verifiedAt": "2026-04-22T14:31:08Z",
    "modelVersion": "claude-opus-4-7",
    "reviewer": "human:operator-id-184"
  }
}
The OMNI verification surface is shipping behind two staged-rollout flags (OMNI_DILUTION_EXTRACTORS_ENABLED, OMNI_DILUTION_VERIFICATION_ENABLED) documented in docs/operations/feature-flag-inventory.md. Schema and contract are live on every response; the production extraction pipeline ramps in stages (OMNI-3081).

Pricing

AskEdgar splits its surface into two products: an AI Copilot UI (priced per-month with included AI questions) and an API (priced per-KB, pay-as-you-go only). OMNI is API-first and offers a unified PAYG plus subscription ladder.
TierOMNIAskEdgar CopilotAskEdgar API
Free250 calls/month (renewable)Limited AI questionsNone
Pay-as-you-goFrom $0.01/calln/a0.0040.004–0.019/KB
Personal/Pro$55/month$59/month — 600 AI Q (7-day trial)n/a
Team/Pro+$239/month$199/month — 1,000 AI Q (7-day trial)n/a
EnterpriseCustom (SLA, support, dedicated capacity)CustomCustom
Cost example for a small dilution-research workload (300 API calls/month, ~6 KB returned per dilution-data call):
  • AskEdgar API PAYG (/v1/dilution-data at 0.018/KB)0.018/KB) ≈ **32.40/month**
  • OMNI PAYG (250 free + 50 × 0.01)0.01) ≈ **0.50/month**
  • OMNI Personal $55/month (predictable, includes the rest of the 39-family API surface)
The PAYG arithmetic is the conversion lever for any agent at small-to-medium volume. The subscription is the right call once dilution data is embedded in a workflow that touches the rest of the API surface.

Where AskEdgar wins

AskEdgar has genuine strengths and a visible head start on dilution specifically. Customers evaluating both should know:
  • Polished AI Copilot UI for non-engineer operators. OMNI is API-first and does not ship a Copilot UI in the same shape today.
  • Tight vertical scope — schema, screener, alerts, and Discord integrations tuned for one workflow (small-cap dilution forensics) feel cohesive end-to-end.
  • 7-day free trial on Pro and Pro+ Copilot tiers. OMNI does not offer a separate trial; every new organization receives 250 included calls renewable monthly.
  • Marquee small-cap testimonials. Aegis Capital is named on the home page alongside Trillium, Seven Points Capital, SMB Capital, and others.
  • Strict per-endpoint per-KB API pricing. Some buyers prefer a metered API with no monthly floor.

Where OMNI wins

OMNI is broader (39 endpoint families vs AskEdgar’s dilution-only wedge), ships per-field verification rather than a binary flag, and treats agents as a first-class surface (4 SDKs, 8 Skills, MCP server, FinanceBench score, signed webhooks, structured CLI).

When to choose which

Choose AskEdgar when:
  • You are a small-cap operator who wants an AI Copilot UI today and dilution is your only need.
  • You want to start with a 7-day free trial on the Copilot tier.
  • You are billing-compliant with strictly-metered per-KB API charges and do not need broader SEC data.
Choose OMNI Datastream when:
  • You are building agents or integrations that touch dilution AND broader SEC data (filings, statements, factors, insiders, board, comp, macro).
  • You need per-field verification rather than a binary verified flag.
  • You need an MCP server, multi-language SDKs, or signed webhooks.
  • You expect to migrate between tactical (PAYG) and predictable (subscription) billing as your workload grows.
Use both if your dilution research happens in the AskEdgar Copilot UI and your agent layer reads directly from OMNI for everything else — the askedgar_url field on each OMNI dilution row gives you a one-click return path to the AskEdgar UI for verification.
