13F Alerts
New 13F filings from the funds you follow, with the 45-day lag named out loud.
13F alerts surface new 13F filings from the funds you actually follow.
A 13F is a quarterly snapshot of long US-listed holdings for managers above the AUM line. It is public. It is late. Filers get 45 days after quarter-end. By the time the PDF is up, the fund may have already sold the position you are about to screenshot.
People still watch them. New names, exited names, and a famous manager showing up in a thin stock are useful research, if you treat the date as stale on purpose.
What a 13F is
It is not the live book. Options, shorts, and many non-US names never show. Some filers dump a giant list. Some run a concentrated sleeve that is actually readable. Your job is to name the filers you care about, not to ingest every 13F on EDGAR.
AyeWatch watches the public filing pages and the coverage that says "so-and-so filed a 13F." It summarizes that a named fund published, and what the writeups claim is new. It is not a holdings database with historical diffs for 8,000 managers. It is not Bloomberg. Point at Berkshire, a few hedge funds, and the sector specialists you already read.
The lag you cannot skip
If someone sells 13F alerts as real-time alpha, they are lying. The edge, if any, is research speed: you see the filing the morning it posts instead of in Sunday's roundup. You still have to read the table. You still have to remember the 45 days.
Write the topic that way. "Alert me when these funds file a new 13F. Summarize reported new or exited names. Ignore generic '13F season' explainers."

Paste each filer's EDGAR company page. Name the fund in the topic. Push on filing weeks at quarter-end plus 45 days, when the pile actually hits. Email is fine the rest of the year.
Free Preview is six lifetime runs across three topics. Pro is $9 a month if you follow more than a handful. ASAP is optional here. The filing is already late. Getting it an hour sooner still beats finding it in a newsletter on Tuesday.
After the filing
Open the 13F. Check the information date. Then decide if a new name is a research lead or a dead trade. Pair with Form 4 buys on the same ticker if you want a current public signal next to a stale 13F line.
The form map is SEC filing monitoring. Broader desk setup is AI monitoring for investors. Start from /for/investors and name three funds, not thirty.
