Input | Type | Required | Notes |
| enum | yes | Which award register to read. |
| string | no | How many days back from today to read awards for, 1 to 90. US federal data lags about two days, so do not use a one day window on the US registers. Default |
| string | no | Drops awards below this amount in the register's own currency. Set to 0 to keep everything. Default |
| string | no | Hard cap on billed rows, 1 to 1000. Winners are sorted by total award value, and the run log says how many were dropped. Default |
| boolean | no | Drops winners that are themselves government, universities, or public authorities. Leave this on for the grant registers or you get state departments of education instead of companies. Default |
| boolean | no | Looks up each winner's website. Turning it off makes the run roughly 20x faster and returns |
| enum | no |
|
| number | no | Optional spending cap for this call, in USD. The actor stops before any charge that would take the run past this amount and keeps every row already charged. |
One row per winning company, not one per award. total_award_value, largest_award_value and award_count_in_window size the opportunity. recipient_register_id is the UEI in the US and the Companies House number in the UK, which is what you match against a CRM. latest_award_url is the deep link to the source record.
You are charged per winning company returned, plus a small actor start fee. max_entities is therefore a hard cost cap.
Prices from the live pricing record, read 2026-10-16:
Event | Price per event (USD) | Fires when |
| $0.00005 | Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). |
| $0.005 on the Free plan, down to $0.00425 on higher Apify plans | Charged once per company returned that won a public contract or grant in your window. Summary rows carry no company and are never charged. |
The current price is on the actor's Apify page. Running this server consumes Apify credits.
It is a thin client for the Apify actor. It passes your input through and returns the actor's output unchanged. Every behavior described above lives in the actor, not here.
This is not a tender feed and not a procurement pipeline tool. It does not tell you what is open to bid on. It reports awards that have already been made and names the company that won.
Errors are surfaced, never swallowed. An invalid input, an invalid token, an exhausted balance, a timeout, or a run that returns anything other than a dataset all come back as an explicit tool error rather than as an empty result.
The actor is on the Apify Store. This wrapper is MIT licensed.

Pick a public award register and a time window and it returns the companies that won public work in it, one flat row per winning company rather than one per award, with award count, total value, largest award, awarding body, award date, a deep link to the source record, and a resolved company domain. Five registers are covered: US federal contracts and US federal grants from USASpending, NIH SBIR and STTR from NIH RePORTER, and UK Contracts Finder and UK Find a Tender. This reports awards that have already been made, so it is not a tender feed and will not tell you what is open to bid on. US federal data lags about two days, so a one day window on a US register returns little or nothing. Winners are sorted by total award value and max_entities is the hard cap on billed rows. Requires an APIFY_TOKEN and consumes Apify credits. Read only.
Inputs: register (required), window_days, max_entities, min_award_value, +3 more.

Scored across 1 tool
Only one tool exists, so there is no overlap or ambiguity between tool purposes.
The tool name 'monitor_public_awards' uses a clear verb-noun pattern that accurately describes its function.
A single tool is minimal, but the tool itself aggregates multiple award registers, making it a self-contained utility. Still, one tool feels thin for a server.
The tool fully covers the monitoring of public awards across multiple registers, providing award counts, values, dates, and source links. No obvious dead ends.
