Show HN: BidSonar – MCP server for UK/EU government contracts and grants
Yo HN - I built BidSonar, a free index of UK & EU public-sector contracts and grants, which today I just shipped an MCP server for.
The data is all public, scattered across a bunch of gov portals - I built the platform a couple years back as an aggregator. I've been using the MCP side to keep an eye on contract/grant opportunities for my services business and our clients which I'm finding (not surprisingly) more effective than navigating the traditional UI.
Data's under OGL and the EU TED reuse notice; not affiliated with any procurement body - free to use, you just need an account.
For any SMBs I hope it helps find you an opportunity or two!

- LuminousWzrd 23d agoThis is really cool. I particularly like the option to break it up by sector. This would be very personally useful for me if you can port it to show US contracts and grants. :)
- flibbertigibber 22d agoThank you! I remember looking into the US gov portal a couple years back and the rate limits were bonkers.. but it's been a minute so I will check it out. :)
