Hackathons

Bring a problem. Leave with something you built.

The fastest way to see what AI can really do for your business. No coding, nothing to install, and nobody needs to be technical.

How it works

If you can explain a problem to a colleague, you can do this

1

Bring a problem

Something that eats your week, a site you've been putting off, a spreadsheet that's got out of hand.

2

Watch one built live

Someone in the room describes their problem, and you see it turned into a working tool in minutes.

3

Build yours

Describe it in plain English. We're there to help the moment you get stuck.

4

Show and tell

Everyone shares what they made. You leave with a web address you can use on Monday.

Questions

Before you book

What do I need to bring?

A laptop and a problem you'd like to solve. [Any free accounts to set up beforehand.]

I've never built anything. Is that OK?

That's most people in the room. You describe what you want in plain English, and we help you every step of the way.

What if I don't have an idea?

We'll help you find one at the start. Everyone has something in their week that could be easier.

Can't make a Friday?

Your seat works at any Friday hackathon within four weeks of booking.
