How this service works
Fetch one federal R&D award as a normalized record with its full abstract. Give the award identifier and its source (NIH project number, NSF award id, or SBIR award) and get the title, complete abstract, agency, amount, dates, principal investigators, organization and technology terms, plus for NIH the linked publication PubMed ids. Cheap single-record pull.
Output
Returns a normalized record containing the award title, complete abstract, funding agency, total award amount, start and end dates, list of principal investigators, recipient organization, relevant technology/keyword terms, and (for NIH awards) linked PubMed publication IDs.
Example use cases
Competitive intelligence on rival NIH grant
“Look up NIH project 5R01DK118076 for me — I want the full abstract, how much funding they got, the dates, and who the PIs are so I can understand what our competitors are working on.”
Verify SBIR award details for a portfolio company
“Can you fetch the details for SBIR award 2021-33610-34214? I need the title, abstract, agency, award amount, and the organization that received it.”
Research background on an NSF-funded project
“Pull up NSF award 2047899 and give me the full abstract, principal investigators, funding amount, and the technology terms associated with it.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://payai.agentstools.dev/funding/awardWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you have a specific, known federal award identifier (NIH project number, NSF award ID, or SBIR award number) and need the full normalized record including abstract and metadata in a single cheap call. Prefer this over a search endpoint when the award ID is already known. Best for competitive analysis, grant research, due diligence on funded organizations, or linking publications to funding sources.
Side effects
- Invalid or unrecognized award ID returns an error or empty result
- Mismatched source type (e.g. providing an NSF ID with source=nih) causes lookup failure
- Award not found in the source database returns a not-found error
- Network or upstream data source unavailability causes timeout or 5xx error
