Grants Scraper API (Duke + NIH + Grants.gov)

Search and extract grant opportunities and funding announcements from multiple sources and return them in a single unified JSON output schema.

Sources currently supported:

• Duke Research Funding
• NIH RePORTER
• Grants.gov

Built for grant discovery, internal dashboards, automation workflows, and downstream ranking/LLM pipelines.

🔎 What This Actor Provides

For every run, this Actor searches by keyword and outputs normalized records with consistent fields across sources:

• Title
• Sponsor / agency
• Posted date / deadlines (when available)
• Funding amount (when available)
• Eligibility / tags / topics (when available)
• Source URL + stable source id

✅ Unified schema across all sources ✅ Supports selecting which sources to run ✅ Best-effort enrichment (some fields are source-specific)

⚙️ Input Parameters

Example Input

{
"keyword":"cancer",
"sources":["duke","nih","grants.gov"],
"maxCountPerSource":50
}

Input Fields

Important: output size

If you select multiple sources, the Actor may return up to:

(# of selected sources) × maxCountPerSource

Example: if sources=["duke","nih","grants.gov"] and maxCountPerSource=50, you may receive up to 150 records.

💵 Pricing (Pay per event)

This Actor uses Pay per event and charges per dataset item pushed.

• NIH + Grants.gov records use event: basic_result (cheaper)
• Duke records use event: duke_result (more expensive)

Notes:

• You will be charged based on the number of records saved to the dataset, not just the number of pages visited.
• If your max charge is reached, the Actor exits early.
• Increasing maxCountPerSource increases the potential number of charged results.

📤 Output Schema (Unified)

Each dataset item is a unified record (fields may be null if not available from that source).
