Final call — submissions close today at 21:00 UTC
Hey builders,
This is it, submissions close today, Monday Aug 10 at 21:00 UTC. If your project's ready, get it in now; submissions can't be edited once the deadline passes.
A few quick reminders for the finish line:
- You don't need a hosted demo, a public repo with clear setup instructions + a demo video is enough for judges to evaluate.
- Make sure your repo has an Apache 2.0 LICENSE file and your video is public and under 3 minutes.
- Pick your challenge category before you submit.
If you're close but stuck on setup, shout in #agent-hackathon on…

4 days left – submission checklist before you ship
Hey builders,
Submissions close Monday, Aug 10 at 21:00 UTC. With 4 days to go, here's a quick checklist so nothing trips you up at the finish line, submissions can't be edited after the deadline, so it's worth a final once-over.
Before you submit, make sure:
- Public repo with an Apache 2.0 LICENSE file at the root, this needs to be an actual LICENSE file so GitHub shows the license in your repo's About section. A README mention alone won't be detected. It's the single most common thing people miss.
- Demo video under 3 minutes, publicly visible on…

Free Build Session next week: July 21
Hey builders,
Quick heads-up on a live session next week that'll help you ship a stronger submission:
From Zero to a Working DataHub Agent in 30 Minutes
Tuesday, July 21 · 10am ET / 2pm UTC / 7:30pm IST
We'll spin up DataHub locally, load realistic sample data, and connect an AI agent to it — showing the read → act → write loop behind the four hackathon challenges. Plus we'll build a small agent of our own, so you leave with patterns, commands, and open-source references you can use for your submission.
See you there!
