What is out for bid right now, who won the last one, and when the deadline falls. Ask by keyword and the search resolves it to the right procurement category first, across jurisdictions that each publish differently.

Setup
Choose one of these options:
Open claude.ai/customize/connectors, click Add custom connector, name it Pipeworx Procurement and paste this URL. Leave the OAuth client ID and secret blank — the connector registers itself.
https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp?vertical=procurementThen click Connect and sign in with GitHub. That step is free and takes you from 50 calls a day to 200 — same connection either way, and you can skip it and sign in later. In a new chat, open the tools menu and enable the connector.
Custom connectors need a paid Claude plan — that is an Anthropic gate, not a Pipeworx one.

What data sources are included in Tender Radar?
TED (Tenders Electronic Daily, covering all 27 EU member states), UK Contracts Finder, Ukraine ProZorro, and national procurement portals for Germany, France (BOAMP), Australia (AusTender), Canada (CanadaBuys), Chile (ChileCompra), Colombia (SECOP), South Africa (eTenders), Singapore (GeBIZ), Hong Kong, and Israel. All are official government sources, free, with no upstream API keys required.
Can I filter EU tenders by CPV code, country, and contract value?
Yes. The TED tools accept free-text keywords, 8-digit CPV (Common Procurement Vocabulary) codes, buyer country, publication date range, estimated value floor/ceiling in EUR, and notice type (open call, award notice, prior information). An agent can ask "open IT-services tenders in Germany over €500k this month" and get cited publication numbers verifiable on ted.europa.eu.
How fresh is the tender data?
Queries hit the official APIs live — TED updates daily with its publication cycle, and the national portals update on their own schedules (most daily). There is no cached snapshot in between; what the portal publishes is what your agent sees.
Can an agent monitor for new tenders automatically?
Yes — that is the most common production pattern. Build the agent once (e.g. in OpenAI Agent Builder or Claude with a scheduled task), have it call the search tools with a date_from of the last check, and it reports new notices with buyer, value, and deadline. See the walkthrough on the blog: "Monitoring EU Tenders with an AI Agent".
