Our crawler

ProcuraGY operates a polite, identifiable bot to collect public tender notices from government and news sources in Guyana.

Identity

Our crawler identifies itself with the User-Agent string ProcuraGYBot/0.1 (+https://procuragy.com/bot).

Rate limits

  • One request every five seconds per domain by default.
  • Where robots.txt is more restrictive, we respect it.
  • We never bypass authentication, paywalls, or rate-limit responses.

Get in touch

Operate a site we crawl and need us to slow down, change behaviour, or stop? Use the contact form below — the founder reads every message.

Contact form coming in Stage 1. Until then please reach @Asterisk on X or LinkedIn (linked from the homepage footer).

Status

The crawler has been live since June 2026. It checks each registered source on a schedule (typically hourly), skips anything unchanged via content-hash deduplication, and keeps an unmodified archive copy of every captured document for verification. How captured documents become evidence-backed tender records is explained on our methodology page.
