Exact-phrase query "agentic AI" against EDGAR full-text search, counted per calendar quarter by filing date. The all-forms series applies no form filter; the 10-K series filters forms=10-K. Counts are filings, not companies: a company filing twice counts twice. A filing counts if the phrase appears anywhere in it, including risk factors, so a mention is evidence of disclosure and not of deployment. EDGAR full-text search covers 2001 onward. Rerun with scripts/pull-edgar.mjs.
- Deployment. A phrase in a risk factor is a disclosure, and plenty of filings mention the term precisely to say they are exposed to other people doing it.
- Private companies, which do not file, and non-US issuers outside the SEC's reach.
- Companies doing the work under a different name. The index tracks a vocabulary, and vocabularies move.
The endpoint returns 403 with no body unless you send a User-Agent identifying yourself, which is the SEC's stated requirement and the reason most people give up on it.
