They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## SBIR & STTR Award Scraper — Funded R&D Company Leads Extract the **complete SBIR & STTR award database** from the official **[SBIR.gov](https://www.sbir.gov)** open data — every federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) award, with the **funded company**, the **award economics**, and the **decision-maker contacts** that make each award a ready-to-use B2B lead. Every record carries the **company name, website and full address**, the **award** (program, phase, agency, branch, dollar amount, topic, dates), and **two named contacts** — the **business/company contact** and the **Principal Investigator** — each with **title, email and phone**, plus the partner **research institution** (for STTR), set-aside ownership flags, the full project abstract and a derived **lead score**. No login, no cookies, no browser, no API key — fast, reliable extraction straight from the government bulk dataset, refreshed by SBIR.gov on an ongoing basis. ### Why this SBIR/STTR scraper? A company that just won federal R&D money is a **high-intent B2B lead**: it's funded, it's hiring, and it's buying. Generic exporters dump a few API fields and miss the contact data that turns an award into outreach. This actor ships the **richest record in the category** — the full firmographics **and** the named business contact **and** the Principal Investigator, with emails and phones for both. | Data | Generic SBIR exporters | This actor | |---|---|---| | Company, agency, phase, amount, year | ✅ | ✅ | | Company **website** + full mailing address | partial | ✅ | | **Business contact** name, title, **email**, phone | ❌ | ✅ | | **Principal Investigator** name, title, **email**, phone | partial | ✅ | | Partner **research institution** + POC (STTR) | ❌ | ✅ | | Set-aside flags (woman-owned / HUBZone / disadvantaged) | partial | ✅ | | Employees, DUNS, topic code, solicitation, contract # | partial | ✅ | | Full project **abstract** | ❌ | ✅ | | **Lead score** (contactability + recency + phase + size) | ❌ | ✅ | | Filter by agency, phase, state, year, amount, keyword | partial | ✅ | | **Monitoring mode** — only newly-funded companies | ❌ | ✅ | ### Use cases - **B2B sales & lead generation** — newly-funded R&D companies are in-market buyers. Export them with email, phone, website and award size and drop them straight into your CRM or outreach sequence. - **Government-contracting business development** — find subcontractors, teaming partners and primes by agency, branch, topic and technology. - **Recruiting & talent** — Phase II winners are scaling and hiring engineers and scientists; the PI is the technical decision-maker. - **Investors & M&A** — track non-dilutive-funded deep-tech startups by technology, geography and award trajectory. - **Professional services** — IP/patent attorneys, accountants, grant consultants and R&D tax-credit firms can target firms by funding stage and agency. - **Market & competitive research** — map who is winning R&D funding in AI, batteries, biotech, defense, space and more, by agency and over time. ### How to use 1. [Sign up for Apify](https://console.apify.com/sign-up) — the free plan is enough to try this actor. 2. Open the **SBIR & STTR Award Scraper**, set your filters (e.g. agency `Defense`, state `MA`, `awardYearFrom: 2023`, `withEmail: true`), and pick how many results you want. 3. Click **Start** and watch results stream into the dataset table. 4. **Export** as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS — or pull results programmatically via the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2). ### Input ```json { "agencies": ["Defense"], "states": ["MA"], "phases": ["Phase II"], "awardYearFrom": 2023, "withEmail": true, "sortBy": "newest", "maxResults": 500 } ```` All filters are optional and combine with **AND**. Highlights: - **programs** — `SBIR`, `STTR`, or both (empty = both). - **phases** — `Phase I` (feasibility) and/or `Phase II` (development; proven, larger awards). - **agencies** — match the funding agency by keyword: `Defense`, `Health` (HHS/NIH), `Energy`, `Homeland Security`, `Aeronautics` (NASA), `Science Foundation` (NSF), `Agriculture`, `Commerce`, `Education`, `Transportation`, `Environmental`. - **branches** — sub-agency contains: `Navy`, `Air Force`, `Army`, `DARPA`, `NIH`, `ARPA-E`, `NOAA`, `NIST`… - **keywords** — match any term in the **title or abstract** (e.g. `artificial intelligence`, `battery`, `hypersonic`, `quantum`) to build a technology-specific list. - **states / cities / zipCodes** — locate companies geographically. - **awardYearFrom / awardYearTo**, **minAwardAmount / maxAwardAmount**, **awardedAfter / awardedBefore** — funding window and dollar size. - **minEmployees / maxEmployees**, **womenOwnedOnly / hubZoneOwnedOnly / disadvantagedOnly**, **researchInstitutionQuery** — company size, set-aside status and STTR partner. - **withEmail / withPhone / withWebsite** — keep only contactable records. - **sortBy** — `newest` (recommended; fastest & cheapest), `awardAmountHigh`, `awardAmountLow`, `oldest`. - **monitorMode / monitorKey** — return only awards new since the last run (see below). - **maxResults**, **deduplicateResults**, **proxyConfiguration**. > **Tip:** `sortBy: "newest"` streams the file in its native newest-first order and stops as soon as it has enough matches — so a targeted run reads only a few MB. The other sort orders scan the entire dataset to sort globally. ### Output By default you get one clean, dense table — every column applies to every row. The dataset ships three ready-made **views**: **Awards**, **Company leads**, and **Contacts (business + PI)**. An award record: ```json { "recordType": "award", "company": "ATA ENGINEERING, INC.", "companyWebsite": "http://www.ata-e.com", "duns": "...", "numberEmployees": 205, "womenOwned": false, "hubZoneOwned": false, "sociallyEconomicallyDisadvantaged": false, "setAsides": [], "address1": "...", "city": "San Diego", "state": "CA", "zip": "92128-4695", "zipCode": "92128", "country": "US", "fullAddress": "..., San Diego, CA, 92128-4695", "program": "STTR", "phase": "Phase II", "phaseNumber": 2, "agency": "Department of Defense", "branch": "Navy", "awardTitle": "…", "awardYear": 2024, "awardAmount": 997409, "awardAmountText": "997,409", "awardTier": "mid", "contractNumber": "N68335-24-C-0081", "agencyTrackingNumber": "…", "topicCode": "N22A-T016", "solicitationNumber": "…", "solicitationYear": 2022, "proposalAwardDate": "2023-10-23", "contractEndDate": "2025-10-30", "dateOfNotification": "2023-05-05", "contactName": "Heather Wilkens", "contactTitle": "…", "contactPhone": "(858) 480-2043", "contactEmail": "hwilkens@ata-e.com", "piName": "Timothy Palmer", "piTitle": "…", "piPhone": "(585) 480-2066", "piEmail": "tim.palmer@ata-e.com", "primaryEmail": "hwilkens@ata-e.com", "primaryPhone": "(858) 480-2043", "researchInstitution": "University of Arkansas", "riPocName": "…", "riPocPhone": "…", "abstract": "…full project abstract…", "hasEmail": true, "hasPhone": true, "hasWebsite": true, "isPhaseII": true, "isSttr": true, "leadScore": 86, "dataAsOf": "2026-01-01", "scrapedAt": "2026-06-20T13:00:00.000Z" } ``` #### What to expect (field coverage) SBIR.gov is government-entered data. Award economics, company and location are essentially always present; contact richness is highest for **recent** awards (which is exactly what `sortBy: "newest"` returns). Older awards (1980s–2000s) often have placeholder or missing contacts — those are cleaned to `null`, never faked. | Field group | Coverage on recent awards | |---|---| | Company, agency, program, phase, amount, year, address | ~100% | | Company website | high | | Business contact name + **email** + phone | high | | Principal Investigator name + **email** + phone | high | | Research institution (STTR awards) | present on STTR | | Set-aside flags, employees, DUNS, topic, abstract | high | A blank field means SBIR.gov didn't publish it for that award — not that scraping failed. Nothing is dropped, so you always get the richest dataset available. ### Monitoring mode — only newly-funded companies Turn on **`monitorMode`** and the actor remembers every award it has already returned (in a named key-value store) and, on the next run, emits **only awards that are new** since last time — each tagged `monitorEvent: "new"`. Because the file is newest-first, fresh awards surface at the top. This is **orthogonal to [Apify Schedules](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules)**: the Schedule *starts* the run on your cadence (say, weekly); monitoring mode decides *what's new*. Use a distinct `monitorKey` per saved watch (e.g. one per agency or state) so different monitors keep separate memory. The result: a clean, de-duplicated feed of newly-funded R\&D companies dropped straight into your CRM. ### Automate & schedule Run this actor on autopilot and pull results into your own stack: - **[Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2)** — start runs, fetch datasets and manage schedules over REST. - **[apify-client for JavaScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/)** and **[apify-client for Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/)** — official SDKs. - **[Schedules](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules)** — run it weekly with `monitorMode` to capture new awards as fresh leads. - **[Webhooks](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/webhooks)** — trigger downstream actions (CRM import, Slack alert, email sequence) the moment a run finishes. ```js import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'MY_APIFY_TOKEN' }); const run = await client.actor('scrapesage/sbir-sttr-award-scraper').call({ agencies: ['Defense'], states: ['MA'], awardYearFrom: 2023, withEmail: true, maxResults: 500, }); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); console.log(`Got ${items.length} SBIR/STTR awards`); ``` ### Integrate with any app Connect the dataset to 5,000+ apps — no code required: - **[Make](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/make)** — multi-step automation scenarios. - **[Zapier](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/zapier)** — push new award leads straight into your CRM. - **[Slack](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/slack)** — get notified when a monitored agency or state has new awards. - **[Google Drive / Sheets](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/drive)** — auto-export every run to a spreadsheet. - **[Airbyte](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/airbyte)** — pipe results into your data warehouse. - **[GitHub](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/github)** — trigger runs from commits or releases. ### Use with AI assistants (MCP) The output is clean, LLM-ready JSON. Call this actor from Claude, ChatGPT, or any agent framework through the **[Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp)** — ask your assistant to "list every Phase II SBIR award in Massachusetts since 2023 with the company email" and let it run the scraper for you. ### Agent-ready: autonomous payments (x402 & Skyfire) This actor is **agent-ready** — AI agents can discover it, run it, and **pay for it autonomously**, with no Apify account and no human in the loop. It uses [pay-per-event](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/publishing/monetize/pay-per-event) pricing and [limited permissions](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/development/permissions), so it qualifies for Apify's agentic-payment standards: - **[x402](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/x402)** — an open, HTTP-native payment protocol. Agents pay per run in USDC on the Base network directly through the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp) — no account, no API key. - **[Skyfire](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/skyfire)** — agent-to-service payments for fully autonomous AI-agent workflows. Building an AI agent, MCP tool, or autonomous data pipeline? This scraper is ready to plug in and pay as it goes. ### More US-B2B & funding-data scrapers from scrapesage Build a complete **funded-company & federal-money lead-gen stack**: - **[SEC Form D Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/sec-form-d-funding-scraper)** — private-placement & Reg CF crowdfunding leads (issuers, offering amounts, named execs). - **[SBA Loan Leads Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/sba-loan-leads-scraper)** — 7(a) & 504 financed small businesses. - **[PPP Loan Data Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/ppp-loan-data-scraper)** — ~11.5M PPP loans with owner demographics & jobs. - **[U.S. Federal Grants Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/us-federal-grants-scraper)** — grant opportunities from Grants.gov. - **[USAspending Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/usaspending-scraper)** — federal contract & assistance awards. - **[GSA eLibrary Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/gsa-elibrary-scraper)** — GSA Schedule contractors & SINs. - **[SAM.gov Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/sam-gov-scraper)** — federal entity registrations. - **[Form 5500 ERISA Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/form-5500-erisa-scraper)** — 401(k) & benefit-plan leads. - **[US Business Formation Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/us-business-formation-scraper)** — newly-registered companies. - **[FAA Aircraft Registry Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/faa-aircraft-registry-scraper)** — aircraft owner leads. - **[Nonprofit & IRS 990 Scraper](https://apify.com/scrapesage/nonprofit-990-scraper)** — nonprofit firmographics, financials & officers. ### FAQ **Where does the data come from?** The official SBIR.gov public award dataset (every SBIR & STTR award, all 11 participating agencies, going back to the 1980s), downloaded directly as the government bulk file. **Does it need the SBIR API or a key?** No. This actor reads the public bulk award file directly — no key, no login, no browser — which is also far more reliable than the rate-limited public API. **Why are some old awards missing emails/phones?** Contact fields are richest on recent awards. SBIR.gov stores placeholder values (e.g. `() -`) for missing contacts on older records; the actor cleans those to `null` rather than emitting junk. Use `sortBy: "newest"` and `withEmail: true` for the cleanest lead list. **What's the difference between SBIR and STTR?** Both fund small-business R\&D. STTR additionally requires a partnership with a research institution (university or federal lab), which appears in the `researchInstitution` field. **Can I export to Google Sheets, CSV or Excel?** Yes — one click in the dataset view, or automatically on every run via the [Google Drive integration](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/drive). **How do I get only newly-funded companies?** Turn on `monitorMode` and run on a [Schedule](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules) — you'll get only awards added since the last run. **Is scraping this legal?** This actor collects publicly available U.S. government open data. You're responsible for using the data in compliance with applicable laws (e.g. CAN-SPAM/CCPA for outreach). ### Need help?

Feature requests are welcome — this actor is actively maintained. # Actor input Schema ## `programs` (type: `array`): Limit to the SBIR program, the STTR program, or both. Leave empty for both. STTR awards always involve a research institution (university / lab) partner. ## `phases` (type: `array`): Phase I = feasibility (~$50k–$300k). Phase II = development (~$0.5M–$2M+, proven companies). Leave empty for all phases. ## `agencies` (type: `array`): Filter by funding agency — case-insensitive, matches anywhere in the agency name. Type a keyword such as Defense, Health (HHS/NIH), Energy, Homeland Security, Aeronautics (NASA), Science Foundation (NSF), Agriculture, Commerce, Education, Transportation or Environmental. Leave empty for all agencies. ## `branches` (type: `array`): Filter by branch within an agency (case-insensitive contains), e.g. Navy, Air Force, Army, DARPA, NIH, ARPA-E, NOAA, NIST. Leave empty for all. ## `keywords` (type: `array`): Only awards whose title or abstract contains ANY of these terms (case-insensitive), e.g. artificial intelligence, battery, biosensor, hypersonic, quantum. Great for building a technology-specific prospect list. ## `companyNameQuery` (type: `string`): Only awards whose company name contains this text (case-insensitive), e.g. robotics or a specific firm name. ## `topicCode` (type: `string`): Filter by the solicitation topic code (case-insensitive contains), e.g. AF, N22A-T016, DHS241. ## `states` (type: `array`): Filter by the company's state — two-letter USPS codes, e.g. CA, TX, MA, VA. Leave empty for all states & territories. ## `cities` (type: `array`): Filter by the company's city (case-insensitive, exact city name), e.g. Cambridge, San Diego, Austin. ## `zipCodes` (type: `array`): Filter by ZIP — full ZIP (02139) or a prefix (021 matches all 021xx). The 5-digit ZIP is used for matching. ## `awardYearFrom` (type: `integer`): Only awards from this fiscal year onward (e.g. 2022). Recent awards make the freshest leads. ## `awardYearTo` (type: `integer`): Only awards up to and including this fiscal year. ## `minAwardAmount` (type: `integer`): Only awards of at least this dollar amount. Set to e.g. 500000 to target Phase II / well-funded companies. ## `maxAwardAmount` (type: `integer`): Only awards up to this dollar amount. ## `awardedAfter` (type: `string`): Only awards with a proposal award date on or after this date, YYYY-MM-DD. Best for capturing recently-funded companies. ## `awardedBefore` (type: `string`): Only awards with a proposal award date on or before this date, YYYY-MM-DD. ## `minEmployees` (type: `integer`): Only companies reporting at least this many employees. ## `maxEmployees` (type: `integer`): Only companies reporting at most this many employees. ## `researchInstitutionQuery` (type: `string`): Only awards whose partner research institution (mostly STTR) contains this text (case-insensitive), e.g. MIT, Stanford, Georgia Tech. ## `womenOwnedOnly` (type: `boolean`): Only companies flagged as woman-owned. ## `hubZoneOwnedOnly` (type: `boolean`): Only companies flagged as HUBZone-owned. ## `disadvantagedOnly` (type: `boolean`): Only companies flagged as socially and economically disadvantaged-owned. ## `withEmail` (type: `boolean`): Keep only records that have a business contact OR principal-investigator email — recommended for a clean, contactable lead list. ## `withPhone` (type: `boolean`): Keep only records with a contact or PI phone number. ## `withWebsite` (type: `boolean`): Keep only records that have a company website. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of award records to return in this run. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Newest first streams the file in its native newest-first order and stops as soon as it has enough matches — by far the fastest & cheapest. The other orders scan the entire ~370 MB file to sort globally. ## `deduplicateResults` (type: `boolean`): Skip duplicate awards within this run (recommended). ## `monitorMode` (type: `boolean`): Remember which awards were already returned (in a named key-value store) and emit ONLY awards that are new since the last run — each tagged monitorEvent: "new". SBIR.gov refreshes regularly; run on a Schedule to capture newly-funded companies as fresh leads. Works alongside Apify Schedules (the schedule starts the run; monitoring decides what's new). ## `monitorKey` (type: `string`): Names the memory used by monitoring mode. Use a distinct key per saved watch (e.g. per agency or state) so different monitors don't share state. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Optional proxy. The SBIR.gov bulk file is downloaded directly and needs no proxy — leave this off for the fastest download. Enable Apify Proxy only if your network requires it. ## Actor input object example ```json { "agencies": [ "Defense" ], "states": [ "MA" ], "womenOwnedOnly": false, "hubZoneOwnedOnly": false, "disadvantagedOnly": false, "withEmail": false, "withPhone": false, "withWebsite": false, "maxResults": 1000, "sortBy": "newest", "deduplicateResults": true, "monitorMode": false, "monitorKey": "default", "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): All scraped SBIR/STTR award records in the default dataset, each with the funded company, contacts, award economics and a lead score. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
