EU Tenders Monitor (TED)

Search and monitor European public tenders and contract awards from TED (Tenders Electronic Daily), the official EU procurement journal, through its official public API. No scraping, no proxies, no blocked runs.

Get clean, flat JSON for every notice: title, buyer, country, CPV sector with a translated label, deadline, estimated or awarded value, winners, and direct links to the notice, its PDF and the tender documents.

What you can do with it

• Find open tenders in your sector. Filter by country, CPV code and keywords, keep only notices with a deadline still open, and set a minimum contract value.
• Get a daily feed of new tenders. Turn on Only new notices, schedule the Actor every morning and connect the dataset to email, Slack, Google Sheets, Make, Zapier or a webhook. Each run returns only notices that previous runs with the same filters have not returned yet.
• Analyse competitors and prices. Pull contract awards with winners and awarded values for a sector or a buyer, over any period.
• Feed AI agents. The output is compact and consistent, ready for RAG pipelines and LLM tools (the Actor can be called through Apify's MCP server).

Pricing

Simple pay-per-result pricing, with platform usage included (no compute or proxy costs on top):

Event	Price
Notice returned	$0.002 ($2.00 per 1,000 notices)
Run start	$0.00005

Notices returned	Cost
100	$0.20
1,000	$2.00
10,000	$20.00

Monitoring is cheap: in one week, IT-services calls for tenders in Italy (CPV 72000000) added up to 25 new notices, about $0.05. Apify's free monthly credit covers about 2,500 notices. Set a maximum cost per run in the run options and the Actor stops cleanly when it is reached.

Good to know

• Titles are not translated. TED publishes titles and descriptions in the buyer's language. The CPV sector label and the links follow the language you choose.
• Coverage. TED contains notices above the EU thresholds and many voluntary publications. Smaller national tenders may appear only on national portals.
• Data and privacy. Data comes from the TED official API and is reusable under Commission Decision 2011/833/EU. The Actor does not output contact persons, e-mails or phone numbers. Award notices can name a winner who is a natural person, as published by law: process that data only for lawful purposes under GDPR.
• Not affiliated with the European Union or the Publications Office. "TED" refers to the data source.
