The missing RSS feed for SAM.gov opportunities
RSS is the perfect transport for contract opportunities — low-tech, pollable, consumable by everything from Slack workflows to newsboat — and SAM.gov doesn't publish any.
What an opportunities feed should be
- One feed per saved search, not one firehose.
- Items for changes, not just new notices — deadline moves and cancellations matter more than postings.
- A stable GUID per change so readers dedupe correctly.
SamHooks feeds
Every filter gets a capability-URL feed with the 100 most-recent matching changes (docs). Free public demo feeds exist per NAICS code — 10 items, 24h delayed, no signup: try NAICS 541511 from our Custom Computer Programming Services page.
If you'd rather be pushed than poll, that's webhooks; if you're comparing against SAM.gov's own alerts, read the honest comparison — then the quickstart.
