TendFeed — Bid/No-Bid Intelligence MCP Server

Should you bid? Every open EU tender, scored against 592,000 real award outcomes.

Language: English · Deutsch

</div>

---

MCP server for bid/no-bid intelligence on EU public tenders, built on 592,000 real TED contract awards: observed competition density (median bidders, single-bidder share), price corridor, SME fit and beachhead ranking for every open tender. It answers "can I win this?", not just "what is out there?".

Why this exists

Tender portals list what is out there — they don't tell you whether bidding is worth it. Most losing bids die on competition and price, and that information exists: it is in the award notices of tenders already decided. TendFeed benchmarks every open EU tender against 592,000 real award outcomes (bidder counts, winning prices, SME shares per CPV sector × country) and returns a verdict with its evidence — the score, the reason, and the number of awards it is based on. An agent (or a human) can check the basis instead of trusting a guess. Works in Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any other MCP-capable harness.

Two ways to use it

1. Connect to the hosted server (recommended) — no installation, always current data:

claude mcp add --transport http tendfeed https://tendfeed.eu/api/mcp/tendfeed

For stdio-only clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor) via mcp-remote:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tendfeed": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://tendfeed.eu/api/mcp/tendfeed"]
    }
  }
}

2. Run the bundled stdio wrapper — zero dependencies; initialize/tools/list answer offline, tool calls reach the hosted endpoint:

node index.js

Or with Docker:

docker build -t tendfeed-mcp .
docker run -i --rm tendfeed-mcp

Add to an MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tendfeed": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/tendfeed-mcp/index.js"],
      "env": { "TENDFEED_API_KEY": "cfm_live_…  (optional, unlocks the live board)" }
    }
  }
}

Tools

Tool	What it answers
find_low_competition_lanes	"Where is competition thinnest right now?" — ranks CPV sector lanes by observed competition density (median bidders, single-bidder share, bid rate, beachhead score)
search_tenders	Open EU tenders with a bid/no-bid verdict: Worth-It score, reason, competition density, price corridor, deadline, SME fit — filterable by sector, country, score
get_verdict	One versioned verdict object for a single tender (decision, score, per-channel evidence)
find_winnable_lanes	Deprecated alias of find_low_competition_lanes, kept for existing clients

Free tier and API key

Guests need no key: the expired-tender board is fully usable and every search returns a live_matched count of current hits. An API key (created at tendfeed.eu, active subscription) unlocks the live, still-biddable board — sent as a header:

claude mcp add --transport http tendfeed https://tendfeed.eu/api/mcp/tendfeed \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer cfm_live_YOUR_KEY"

Agent skill

A ready-made skill that teaches an agent to use the server well (lane before single tender, always cite the verdict's reason and data basis) is served at tendfeed.eu/skill.md.
