Two hours on the clock. Three challenges. One grand champion.
Wayfair, Subconscious, and BaseTen are running a hackathon-sprint during Boston Tech Week. We'll have great templates to get started, so you'll have 2 *pure* hours to hack hack hack.
Now, Cloudflare will also be supporting the event with killer tooling for cloud sandboxing, storage, and more agent infrastructure.
The schedule:
- 5:00pm: Doors open at Wayfair. Meet other great Boston enigneers.
- 5:30pm: Quick intros from Subconscious, Wayfair, and BaseTen.
- 5:45pm: HACK. Clock starts.
- 7:45pm: Submit.
- 8:00pm: Top Teams Present.
- 8:30pm: Track winners and grand champion crowned.
Teams will need to show video submission, and demo live as a top team. If it runs, it runs in front of everyone!
What you'll get
- Starter repos for every track so you're ready to jump right in.
- API access and free credits from Subconscious, BaseTen, and Cloudflare
- Support from our teams to unblock you quickly!
Pick one of four tracks to build an agent. Each track will have a champion, with one overall grand champion named at the end of the night.
1. Agents for customers. Build agents that browse, compare, or purchase furniture on a live site.
2. Agents for supply chain. Resolve exceptions on a mock logistics dashboard.
3. Agents for operations in finance and customer service. Resolve customer complaints, fight fraud, read invoices, and more.
How you win:
- Completeness. Does it actually work?
- Usefulness. Does it solve the challenge?
- Creativity. How far out of the box did you think?
- Showmanship. How clear was your story and demo?
Come if you are:
- A software engineer who wants to experiment with agent infrastructure
- An early-career developer who builds on nights and weekends
- A non-technical person who knows how to wield claude code
Bring a laptop. We'll have a killer group of hackers. The clock doesn't wait!
