Government Tenders & AI Bid Matcher: EU TED, UK, SAM.gov, UN

Find open government tenders from eight official procurement APIs and feeds in one run and one schema, then let AI tell you which ones are worth bidding on for your company.

Source	Coverage	Key needed
EU TED (Tenders Electronic Daily)	All EU/EEA above-threshold tenders + European partner countries	No
UK Contracts Finder	UK public sector (incl. lower-value contracts)	No
UK Find a Tender	UK above-threshold tenders	No
World Bank procurement notices	World Bank–financed projects in ~100 developing countries	No
SAM.gov	US federal contract opportunities	No (built in; optional own key)
CanadaBuys open tender notices	Canadian federal government (and agencies publishing on CanadaBuys)	No
AusTender current approaches to market	Australian Government	No
UNDP procurement notices	UN Development Programme country offices in 100+ countries	No

Use cases

• Bid managers and consultancies: a daily or weekly shortlist of tenders that fit your services, with the reasons and risks already written.
• SMEs entering the public sector: find relevant contracts abroad (EU, UK, US, Canada, Australia, World Bank, UN) without learning eight portals.
• Tender alert and lead generation services: one normalized feed for your own customers.
• Market research: see who is buying what, where, and when.

Quick start

1. Click Start with the prefilled input (a cybersecurity company profile, 25 tenders, 10 scored by AI). A run takes under a minute and costs about $0.28.
2. Write your own companyProfile (what you sell, where you deliver, size, certifications) and keywords or CPV/NAICS codes.
3. Schedule it daily with publishedWithinDays: 1 to get only new tenders.

What you get

For every tender:

• title, buyer, country, estimated value + currency, deadline, published date, notice URL
• CPV codes (EU/UK) or NAICS + set-aside (US), notice type, procedure
• AI fit score (0–100), a bid / maybe / skip verdict, a one-sentence summary in English (even when the notice is in German, Czech, Polish…), the reasons for the score and the risks (eligibility, location, size, deadline)

Results are sorted with the best matches first. A run summary (SUMMARY in the key-value store) shows how many tenders came from each source, which sources were skipped or failed and why, and the top 10 matches.

Why this Actor

• One schema for the EU, UK, US, Canada, Australia, the World Bank and the UN. No more eight different portals and formats.
• AI bid qualification, not just keyword hits. Full-text search returns lots of noise. The AI reads each notice against your company profile and explains its verdict.
• Official APIs only. No scraping of web pages, so runs are fast and stable: fetching all sources takes under a minute, and AI scoring adds about 2 seconds per tender.
• Built for scheduling. Use publishedWithinDays (e.g. 1 or 7) with an Apify schedule to get a daily or weekly feed of new, scored opportunities.

Input

Field	Description
companyProfile	What you sell, where you deliver, size, certifications, typical contract size. Empty = search only, no AI.
keywords	Any of these words (full-text on TED and World Bank, title on SAM.gov, title/description on UK portals, CanadaBuys, AusTender and UNDP).
cpvCodes	EU/UK CPV codes, hierarchical: 72000000 matches all IT services.
naicsCodes	US NAICS codes for SAM.gov, e.g. 541512.
countries	ISO-2 codes (DE, GB, US, KE…). Sources that can't serve them are skipped.
sources	Any of ted, uk_cf, uk_fts, worldbank, samgov, canadabuys, austender, undp.
publishedWithinDays / publishedFrom / publishedTo	Date range (default: last 14 days).
onlyOpen	Drop tenders whose deadline has passed (default on).
minValue + currency (+ requireValue)	Minimum estimated value.
maxTenders, maxAiMatches, minScore	Output size, how many tenders the AI scores, minimum score to keep.
language	Preferred language for TED texts and CanadaBuys (en/fr), falling back to English.
samGovApiKey	Optional: your own SAM.gov key (sam.gov → Account Details → Public API Key) instead of the built-in one.

Pricing (pay per event)

Event	Price
Tender delivered (tender-fetched)	$0.003
Tender scored by AI (tender-ai-matched)	$0.02

Example: 100 tenders with the 50 newest AI-scored = $0.30 + $1.00 = $1.30. Failed AI matches are not charged. The run stops before exceeding your maximum charge per run: tenders are reserved first, then AI matches until the limit.

Good to know

• World Bank notices publish no contract value, and regional projects (e.g. "Western Balkans") have no single country. Filters by country or minimum value treat them accordingly.
• CanadaBuys, AusTender and UNDP publish no contract value. CanadaBuys closing times are Eastern time. The AusTender feed has no buyer agency or close date (open the notice link for those); UNDP notices list a close date only and often a short title, mostly in the local language (English, French or Spanish).
• Values in other currencies are compared to minValue using approximate static exchange rates. They are for filtering only.
• SAM.gov works out of the box with a built-in key, which is rotated every 90 days. Add your own key only if you want to use your own SAM.gov quota.
• CPV filters apply to TED and the UK portals; NAICS applies to SAM.gov. World Bank, CanadaBuys, AusTender and UNDP have neither, so use keywords there.
• TED titles are "Country – CPV category – original title". The original title stays in the buyer's language; the AI summary is always English.
• The AI score is a qualification aid, not legal or bid advice. Always read the tender documents before deciding.
