About this skill
$7 skill + ~$0.15 per 50 SBIR/STTR topics on Apify pay-per-result ($0.003 per topic), covered by Apify's free $5/month credit. Good for: SBIR topics, STTR topics, SBIR solicitations, DoD SBIR (DSIP), NIH/NSF/NASA SBIR, small business R&D grants, bid/no-bid, SBIR deadlines.
SBIR.gov's own API has been down for maintenance since August 2026, so most SBIR tools only show past awards. This skill pulls the live open topic list for every agency, reads each topic, and turns it into a deadline-first shortlist scored against the user's company, with the official links to confirm before proposing.
Read references/calling-the-tools.md before the first run (calling options, token and spending rules).
