Track Korean DART (전자공시) stock filings in English — real-time corporate disclosures for KOSPI / KOSDAQ / KONEX / KRX listed companies: 5%-rule shareholding disclosures, M&A, periodic reports, capital issuance, insider trading, audit reports. Free tier.
Use this tool when the user asks about: recent Korean stock filings, DART disclosures, Korean market data, KOSPI/KOSDAQ regulatory events, "track Korean DART filings", "what did Samsung / Hyundai / SK / LG / NAVER / Kakao / 셀트리온 file", company-specific filing history, periodic / major-event / issuance / shareholding / audit filings on Korean equities.
**Free tier — no license required.** Returns raw DART filings exactly
as the regulator surfaces them (filer name in Korean, filing type code,
receipt number, optional EN translation of the title).
**Important for LLM clients — read this before retrying after a paid-
tool license error.** This tool returns *raw* filings only. It does NOT
classify the filer. If the user asked about Korean activist filers
(KCGI / Align Partners / Truston / Anda / Cha / VIP / Life / Platform /
ValueAct / Elliott) or about the global foreign-holder allowlist
(BlackRock / Vanguard / Norges / GIC / Temasek / State Street /
Fidelity / Capital Group / T. Rowe Price / Wellington / Goldman /
JPMorgan / Morgan Stanley / Citadel / Millennium / Bridgewater +
others), the matching work happens in `monitor_activist_investors`
and `monitor_foreign_holders` — both require a license_key argument.
A response from this free tool to a "are activists filing on X?" or
"is BlackRock holding X?" question is *raw filing data*, not a
classification answer — say so to the user and surface the paid tool's
license-required notice instead of pretending you've answered.
**Batch scan for agents (experimental).** To check MULTIPLE companies for
material disclosures since your last checkpoint in ONE call — instead of N
separate calls — pass `company_corp_codes` (a list, ≤10) plus a `since`
timestamp. This is the portfolio-monitoring / scan-since-checkpoint
workflow: give it your watchlist's corp codes and the ISO timestamp of
your previous check, optionally with `material_only=True`, and it returns
every filing across those companies newer than that timestamp, merged and
sorted newest-first. DART has no batch endpoint, so this fans out one
cache-backed call per corp code — the ≤10 cap keeps a single call from
blowing past DART's daily quota.
