US Federal Spending Monitor — Contracts & Grants → JSON (with stock tickers)

Search and monitor US federal awards (contracts & grants) straight from the official USAspending.gov API. No browser, no proxy, no scraping tricks — a public government API, so it's fast, reliable, and fully legal.

What makes this different: investable-entity mapping

Raw award data is free and public. The value is in the processing layer. This actor maps each award recipient to its public-company stock ticker + SEC CIK (via SEC's official company list), so the output is ready for:

  • Alternative-data / signal research — companies winning large federal contracts often move before the news. Join awards to tickers instantly.
  • Watchlists & screeners — filter awards down to publicly-traded recipients.
  • Portfolio surveillance — monitor government revenue exposure of holdings.

Mapping is conservative (a wrong ticker is worse than none): exact normalized name match, a safe prefix rule for subsidiaries (e.g. Lockheed Martin Aeronautics → LMT), and a small alias table for renames (e.g. Raytheon → RTX). Unmatched recipients return ticker: null. Turn it off with mapTickers: false.

Pay-per-result (PPE): you're billed per award record returned. Run it on a schedule to keep a fresh, ticker-mapped feed of new federal awards.

All data comes from the official USAspending.gov API (public award records, no personal data). Ticker/CIK mapping uses SEC's public company_tickers.json. This is public-record data, not MNPI.
