What does Tango do?
Tango is a unified API for U.S. federal government contracting data. It pulls together information from SAM.gov, USAspending, FPDS, DSBS, GSA eLibrary, Grants.gov, GAO bid protests, and agency forecasts — all accessible through a single API key. Instead of stitching together multiple government databases with different schemas, developers get one consistent interface for contracts, opportunities, entities, subawards, grants, and protests.
The API is built for developers who need reliable, normalized data without scraping or memorizing agency acronyms. Data refreshes on a schedule that matches each source: opportunities update every 20–60 minutes, contracts and IDVs refresh twice daily, and subawards update daily. Webhooks let you subscribe to changes in awards, opportunities, entities, grants, and forecasts so your pipeline sees updates as they happen. Tango also provides first-class SDKs for Python, Node, Go, and Rust, plus an MCP server for AI agents like Claude and Cursor. Response shaping lets you request only the fields you need, reducing payload size and token costs.
Tango is most useful for software developers, govcon professionals, and data analysts who build tools around federal procurement. Common use cases include capture pipeline automation, spending analysis, and integrating procurement data into dashboards or AI agents. If you've ever tried to work with raw USASpending or SAM.gov data, Tango saves you the headache of schema wrangling and ID resolution.
