Search filing evidence
filedproof.search_evidenceFind relevant primary-source passages across a bounded set of SEC filings. Use this for open-ended filing research when you want evidence records with provenance but do not need a claim verdict or a curated answer bundle. Use filedproof.verify_claim for one explicit factual proposition, filedproof.build_evidence_pack for a compact answer-ready bundle, or filedproof.build_timeline when chronology is the main objective. Relevance is not a truth verdict.
