Research Funding API

Discover the funding and projects behind research — as an API over OpenAIRE, the open research graph that links scholarly outputs to the grants and funders that paid for them. Search funded research projects (grants) by keyword and filter by funder — the European Commission, NIH, NSF, UKRI, DFG, Wellcome and many more — and get each project's title, grant code, acronym, funder, start and end dates, funded amount and summary. Search publications too, with their title, authors, year, DOI, type, publisher, open-access status and whether they were publicly funded. It is the place to find research grants and the money behind science — ideal for research-funding discovery, science-policy analysis, grant intelligence, reporting and open-science tooling. A research-funding / projects resource — distinct from DOI registries (Crossref, DataCite) and scholarly-metadata indexes (OpenAlex). Open data from OpenAIRE (CC BY).

US Government Spending API
US federal government spending as an API, live from the official USAspending.gov (US Treasury). Search federal awards — contracts, grants, loans and direct payments — by keyword, recipient, award type and fiscal year, ranked by amount, with the recipient name, dollar amount, awarding agency, description and award dates. Rank the top recipients of federal money for any search, and list and inspect the 100+ top-tier federal agencies with their budgetary resources. Ideal for government-transparency, investigative journalism, contractor intelligence, grants research, GovCon and policy-analysis applications. Public-domain US Treasury data.

Scratch Community API
Live profile, project and engagement data from Scratch, MIT's massive creative-coding platform where millions of young creators share interactive projects — served from the public Scratch API. Look up any user for their profile (join date, country, bio and "what I'm working on"), open any project for its engagement stats (views, loves, favourites and remixes) with author and dates, list a user's shared projects with their stats and totals, or search the shared projects. The creative-community-and-engagement layer for social, edtech and dashboard apps. Live, no key, no cache. Distinct from generic coding or game-catalogue APIs — this is the live Scratch community.

Research Organizations API
Every research organization in the world as an API — powered by ROR, the Research Organization Registry. ROR assigns a persistent open identifier (a ROR ID) to universities, government labs, companies, nonprofits, hospitals, archives and research facilities, with rich, curated metadata and crosswalks to GRID, ISNI, Wikidata and the Crossref Funder Registry. Search the registry by name (and filter by country or organization type); resolve any ROR ID to its full record — names, acronyms and aliases, types, location (city, country, coordinates), website, domains, external identifiers and relationships to parent and child organizations; and match a messy free-text affiliation string ("Dept. of Physics, Heidelberg University, Germany") to the most likely organizations with a confidence score — perfect for cleaning and disambiguating author-affiliation data. It is a research-organization identifier registry, distinct from a plain university directory, and a natural companion to ORCID (for people) in any scholarly-metadata stack. Open data from ROR (CC0).

OpenCitations API
Scholarly citations as open data — powered by OpenCitations (COCI), the open citation index. Unlike a metadata lookup, OpenCitations treats every citation as a first-class object: given a DOI you can list the papers that cite it (incoming citations) and the papers it references (outgoing), each annotated with its OpenCitations Identifier (OCI), the date the citation was created, the timespan between the two works, and whether it is a journal- or author-self-citation. Plus quick citation and reference counts for any DOI. It is built for citation-network and bibliometric work — research-impact analysis, self-citation detection, citation-timespan studies and science mapping — and is distinct from scholarly-metadata services (Crossref, OpenAlex). From a single paper to a whole reference graph, ideal for bibliometrics, research-analytics and reference-management tools. Open data from OpenCitations (CC0).
