TED EU Tenders – Daily Tender Alerts & Search

TED EU Tenders – Daily Tender Alerts & Search finds open public tenders across the European Union and sends you only the new ones each day. It reads TED (Tenders Electronic Daily), the official EU journal where public buyers must advertise larger contracts. It returns one clean row per tender: buyer, country, category, estimated value, deadline, days left to bid, and links to the notice and the bidding portal.

No API key, no login and no coding needed. Pick your filters, press Start, and download the results as Excel, CSV or JSON, or send them to Google Sheets, Slack or email.

Why use this EU tender search

• Daily alerts without duplicates. Turn on Only new tenders and schedule a daily run. Each run returns only tenders you haven't received before.
• Filters that matter for bidding. Set the minimum days left to the deadline and a minimum or maximum contract value in EUR. Values in other currencies are converted at approximate rates.
• Plain-English categories. Choose "IT, software and IT services" or "Construction works" instead of looking up CPV codes. Exact CPV codes are still available, and a broad code includes all its sub-codes.
• Clean, flat output. Ready for a spreadsheet or CRM, with an English category on every row.
• Official, legal source. Public procurement notices from TED, which the EU allows to be reused for commercial purposes.
• No personal data. Contact-person names, emails and phone numbers are never collected.

How to get daily EU tender alerts

1. Click Try for free and open the Input tab.
2. Add Keywords (for example "software", "cleaning services") and/or pick Categories.
3. Add Buyer countries as 2-letter codes (DE, FR, IE…), or leave empty for all of Europe.
4. Optional: set Minimum days left to bid and a value range.
5. Turn on Only new tenders and give the search a Monitor name, for example it-tenders-benelux.
6. Click Start. The first run returns everything that matches from the last 7 days.
7. Click Schedule and choose Daily. From now on, each run returns only new tenders.
8. Optional: under Integrations, send each run's results to Google Sheets, Slack or email.

How much does EU tender data cost?

You pay $3 per 1,000 tenders returned ($0.003 each), plus a tiny start fee per run. There are no extra platform costs.

• A daily alert that finds 20 new tenders costs about $0.06 a day, or under $2 a month.
• A one-off export of 1,000 tenders costs about $3.

Apify's free plan includes $5 of monthly credit, enough for about 1,500 tenders a month. Use Maximum tenders to cap the cost of any run.

Who uses EU tender data

• Companies that bid on public contracts: a morning list of new tenders in your sector and countries.
• Bid writers and consultants: monitor many clients' sectors from one schedule.
• Sales and market research teams: see which public buyers are buying what, and at what value.
• Data teams: feed public procurement data into dashboards or AI agents through the Apify API.

FAQ

Which tenders are included? Open calls for tenders (contract notices) published on TED, including design contests and social-services notices. You can also include prior information notices that invite interest early. Award results are not included.

Why are some titles not in English? TED publishes titles and descriptions in the buyer's language. The category field is always in English. When searching by keyword, add local-language words too, for example "Reinigung" for cleaning in Germany or "nettoyage" in France.

Why is the value or deadline sometimes empty? About half of notices don't publish an estimated value, and about 1 in 10 don't state the deadline in a structured way. When you set a value range, tenders without a stated value are skipped unless you turn off Skip tenders without a stated value. Tenders without a structured deadline are kept unless you turn on Skip tenders without a stated deadline.

How does "Only new tenders" work? The Actor remembers which tenders each monitor has already returned, stored in your own Apify account. Use a different Monitor name for each saved search.

How far back can I search? Up to 365 days. For very broad searches, the newest 15,000 matches are scanned, so add filters to narrow it down.

Can I call it from code or an AI agent? Yes. Use the Apify API, the JavaScript or Python clients, or the Apify MCP server.

Something's wrong or missing? Open an issue on the Issues tab. Requests for new filters or countries outside TED are welcome.
