Free daily JSON feed of Shanghai government subsidy notices

Shanghai Subsidy Radar has published a free, machine-readable JSON feed of roughly 150 Shanghai government grant, subsidy and policy notices drawn from nine official municipal sources, refreshed daily at about 08:10 China time. Each record carries an id derived from the notice URL, the Chinese title, the authoritative official URL, issuing source, publication date, deadline and daysLeft, an isOpen flag, a 0–10 relevance score for foreign-invested SMEs, and a snippet, with titleEn and summaryEn supplied for currently open programmes. The compilation is released under CC BY 4.0 and is aimed at researchers, consultants and AI agents tracking the China market, who can read it over HTTPS or through a generic MCP fetch tool, with a GitHub Action snapshotting the data at 08:30 China time.

A free, machine-readable feed of Shanghai government grant, subsidy and policy notices, refreshed daily. Built for researchers, consultants and AI agents working on the China market.

Live feed: https://shituapp.com/dot/api/programs.json Landing page: https://shituapp.com/dot/en/api.html

~150 notices collected from nine official Shanghai sources — science & technology commission, commerce commission, human resources bureau, development & reform commission, IP office, transport commission and the municipal government portal.

Each record includes:

Field Meaning
id Stable id derived from the URL
title Notice title as published (Chinese)
url Link to the official notice — always authoritative
source /sourceId Issuing body and internal source key
published Publication date
deadline /daysLeft Application deadline when the notice states one
isOpen Whether the deadline is still in the future
score Relevance score for foreign-invested SMEs (0–10, heuristic)
snippet Short excerpt of the notice text
curl -s https://shituapp.com/dot/api/programs.json \
  | jq '.meta, (.programs[] | select(.isOpen) | {title, deadline, url})'

Any agent or workflow with HTTP access can read the feed directly. Example prompt:

Fetch https://shituapp.com/dot/api/programs.json and list every program whose isOpen is true, sorted by deadline. For each, output title, deadline, daysLeft and the official URL.

The feed is plain JSON over HTTPS, so any agent or workflow tool with HTTP access can read it directly.

Fetch https://shituapp.com/dot/api/programs.json and list every program
whose isOpen is true, sorted by deadline. For each, output title,
deadline, daysLeft, category and the official URL.

For MCP users: wrap the URL in a generic fetch / http tool — no scraper or browser needed. A machine-readable site summary is also published at https://shituapp.com/dot/llms.txt

Records include titleEn and summaryEn for currently open programmes when available, so agents can answer questions without translating the Chinese titles first. title and url remain the authoritative fields.

The hosted feed is regenerated every morning at ~08:10 China time. A GitHub Action in this repo pulls the latest copy into data/programs.json at 08:30 China time, so the snapshot here stays current.

The compilation (structure, metadata, relevance scores) is released under CC BY 4.0. The underlying notices are public government information; the original Chinese notice at each url is authoritative.
