## Prompt for your AI agent

```
1. Sign me in yourself. Try this first: you need me only for one approval click.
- If you can send HTTP requests: POST https://app.selltostate.com/api/v1/agent/signup with JSON {"client_name": "<your app name>"}. Show me verification_uri_complete from the reply as a link. I open it, sign up free with Google or email, and approve the code. Every "interval" seconds, POST token_endpoint with {"device_code": "<device_code>"} until the reply has access_token. Send access_token in the x-api-key header to the MCP server https://app.selltostate.com/api/mcp.
- If you cannot send HTTP requests: tell me to add the MCP server https://app.selltostate.com/api/mcp in this app. Its sign-in page also creates the free account.

2. The tools are free to connect. A free account gets plan_search 3 times a day and search for 2 different searches a day: titles, buyers, status and dates. Amounts, winners and notice links need a plan. Call whoami to see my plan. Read the skill at https://www.selltostate.com/skills/selltostate-government-contracts-database/SKILL.md.
3. Using the Sell to State database, give me a brief on <buyer name>: total spend, top suppliers, top sectors, contracts by year and its open tenders.

## Four linked record types

Tenders and awards (title, status, value, dates, notice link), buyers (spend, suppliers, sectors, contracts by year), suppliers (awards, buyers, sectors, history) and sectors. Every record links to the records around it.

## One schema for every country

Each portal has its own fields. We map them to one structure, so a query or an export has the same columns for Brazil, Poland and the UK. Values stay in the local currency of the source.

## Use it where you work

Search and filter in the app, keep lists for your team, export CSV, call the REST API from your code, or ask your AI agent through the MCP server.

## Free to browse

The public atlas shows the tenders, buyers and suppliers pages without an account. A plan unlocks the full rows, the filters, the lists, the export and the API.

## How it works

1. Browse the atlas: Free, no account.
2. Pick a plan: 3-day pass or subscription.
3. Filter and list: Buyers, suppliers, awards.
4. Export or connect: CSV, API, MCP.

## Who uses it

- Sales operations teams that build target lists of public buyers
- Analysts who study public spending by sector
- Developers who need procurement data in their product
