US Federal Spending Monitor โ Contracts & Grants โ JSON (with stock tickers)
Search and monitor US federal awards (contracts & grants) straight from the official USAspending.gov API. No browser, no proxy, no scraping tricks โ a public government API, so it's fast, reliable, and fully legal.
What makes this different: investable-entity mapping
Raw award data is free and public. The value is in the processing layer. This actor maps each award recipient to its public-company stock ticker + SEC CIK (via SEC's official company list), so the output is ready for:
- Alternative-data / signal research โ companies winning large federal contracts often move before the news. Join awards to tickers instantly.
- Watchlists & screeners โ filter awards down to publicly-traded recipients.
- Portfolio surveillance โ monitor government revenue exposure of holdings.
Mapping is conservative (a wrong ticker is worse than none): exact normalized
name match, a safe prefix rule for subsidiaries (e.g. Lockheed Martin Aeronautics
โ LMT), and a small alias table for renames (e.g. Raytheon โ RTX). Unmatched
recipients return ticker: null. Turn it off with mapTickers: false.

Pay-per-result (PPE): you're billed per award record returned. Run it on a schedule to keep a fresh, ticker-mapped feed of new federal awards.
Legal & data notes
All data comes from the official USAspending.gov API (public award records, no
personal data). Ticker/CIK mapping uses SEC's public company_tickers.json.
This is public-record data, not MNPI.
