Documentation
Technical reference for People Studio — executive intelligence platform.
Platform Overview
People Studio is an executive intelligence platform for tracking industrial executives, directors, and key personnel across US-listed companies. It ingests SEC Form 4 insider trade filings to build a real-time picture of who is active, what roles they hold, and where they're moving. The platform is designed for deal teams, PE analysts, and strategic researchers who need to understand the human layer of a company — not just the financial signals.

ticker — company identifier
normalized_name — canonical name (used for dedup + People Studio links)
role_raw — full title from SEC filing ("Executive Vice President, General Counsel")
role_abbrev — truncated short form (legacy — use role_raw)
event_type — insider_trade | executive_transition | ...
event_date — date of filing or event
is_active — true if most recent filing is within 18 months

People Studio link format:
/person/{encodeURIComponent(normalized_name)} ← path param
/company/{ticker} ← company viewGenome Integration
People Studio surfaces in the Genome Advisory Report as the Key People section of each company card. Each executive links directly to their People Studio profile. The "Full team in People Studio →" link goes to /company/{ticker}. Genome signals (archetype, conviction, ECL pressure) appear on the company view, pulling from the Genome API at genome-api-production.up.railway.app. Current limitation: Form 4 filers are insiders who traded in the past 18 months. Full C-suite (non-trading officers) requires DEF 14A proxy parsing — not yet implemented.
