Well, there seem to be quite a few services out there that pull, compile, and display data from EDGAR. Most are paid services, of course, but here's one free one as an example of what can be done: http://rankandfiled.com/ It would certainly be possible to roll your own EDGAR application, though the complexity would depend on what you wanted to do with it. Simply getting raw data from EDGAR is pretty easy; the tricky part would be figuring out exactly how you want to filter, use, and/or present it and then working out the necessary queries and algorithms to fetch and process the data accordingly. As for your analyst buddy's job, if he's just pulling filings for a specific company from EDGAR to examine their data in detail, that really doesn't involve much manual work (basically it's search for company ticker or CIK and click the desired document). If he's manually searching EDGAR to find and compare financials on a bunch of different companies or trying to look at all companies in field X or something, then yeah, a script or application would speed things up a lot.
