Terms of Use
Last updated August 9, 2026
By using Adviser Pull, you agree to the terms below. This tool is provided for internal research and drafting assistance — read this page before relying on its output for anything client-facing.
What this tool is
Adviser Pull looks up an investment adviser's Form ADV filing on the SEC's public IAPD system and reformats select data — registration status, direct and indirect owners, assets under management, and reported private funds — into a spreadsheet. It is a convenience tool that automates a lookup a person could otherwise do by hand.
This is not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for the primary source
Nothing generated by this tool constitutes legal advice or a certified record. Every field in the generated spreadsheet — including Direct Owners and Executive Officers (Schedule A) and Indirect Owners (Schedule B) — is extracted programmatically from the firm's own public SEC filing. You are responsible for independently verifying every field against the underlying Form ADV filing (or the firm directly) before using it in any client-facing or filed document.
Known limitations
- Filing data changes over time. The sheet reflects the firm's current ADV filing at the moment you generate it, not a fixed historical snapshot. A firm's reported funds, AUM, registration status, and ownership can change between amendments.
- Ownership data is self-reported. Direct Owners and Executive Officers (Schedule A) and Indirect Owners (Schedule B) reflect exactly what the firm filed with the SEC. That filing can lag a real-world ownership change until the firm's next amendment, and a firm with no reported indirect ownership chain will simply have no Indirect Owners section.
- Checkbox-derived fields (the Investment Company Act exclusion and fund type for each private fund) are read from the filing's rendered PDF using an automated image comparison, not from a certified data feed. Spot-check anything unusual before relying on it.
Acceptable use
Use this tool for legitimate research on publicly registered investment advisers. Don't use it to attempt to overwhelm, scrape in bulk beyond normal lookup use, or otherwise abuse the SEC's public systems or the websites of the firms you look up.
No warranty
This tool is provided "as is," without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness, or fitness for a particular purpose. Use of any generated data is at your own risk and subject to your own independent verification.
Changes
These terms may be updated from time to time; continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.
