When we read the same filing twice
Code that reads filings gets revised, and a revised parser can read a different number from the same document. Most data sites keep only the newest answer, so a reader never learns the figure moved. We keep every distinct reading with the parser version that made it, and when two readings of one document disagree, both appear here.
Our own re-reads: CEO pay from the proxy
The pay ingest reads each company’s pay-versus-performance table and names the CEO from the proxy, and re-reads a company about once a month. Until now each re-read replaced the stored figure. Since this ledger began, every reading that differs from what is kept (a different figure, a different executive named, or a new parser version) is stored as its own record first. Identical re-reads add nothing. Two readings of one company and fiscal year that differ in the figure or the name are a disagreement.
136 distinct readings kept between 2026-11-06 and 2026-11-06, by parser pvp-xbrl@1. 0 company-years have been read more than once; 0 of them agreed every time, and 0 disagreements are listed below.
A person’s read against the machine’s
Our CEO profiles were written by hand from each proxy’s Summary Compensation Table. The ingest reads the same total from the proxy’s tagged pay-versus-performance table. Both are the same filed number, so any gap is a reading error on one side or a fiscal year labelled differently. A figure agrees when the two are within one dollar. When the machine’s figure matches a hand-read figure filed under a different fiscal year, that is a labelling difference, not a figure difference, and it is shown as one.
No company has both a hand-read profile and a published machine reading for the same pay figure yet (0 machine readings checked).
What this ledger does not cover yet
The earnings-date parser that confirms report dates from 8-K filings is evaluated on a stored sample (its eval) but its per-filing decisions are not yet kept by parser version, so a changed decision there is not listed here. CEO pay is the only figure kept reading by reading so far.
Source: our own records. Machine readings come from the SEC proxy filings linked on each row; hand readings come from the CEO profiles, each of which names its proxy. Information only.
