Date/Time: Saturday, August 29 8:30 AM - 6:30 PM
Eligibility:Anyone who wants to write code. Students, final years, fresh grads, working professionals, senior engineers, ML and AI engineers — all of it. No resume screen, no CGPA cut off, no prior hackathon record required. If you build, you belong in the room.
When you register, tell us which band fits you best: 0–6 months, 3–5 years, or 5+ years of experience. This is not a filter and it does not split the competition, everyone builds on the same three tracks and is judged on one leaderboard. We ask only so we can help people find teammates and point mentors where they are wanted.
Project and Submission Requirements:
Three Tracks pick oneTokenomics - Design or simulate an incentive mechanism, a token model, or an on chain economic system, including one where the actors are autonomous AI agents rather than people, and show why it holds up under stress.
Distributed Systems - Build something that has to survive failure, latency or scale: a consensus mechanism, a real time data pipeline, an agent orchestration layer, or an inference serving path that stays up when traffic spikes.
Platform & SaaS - Build a multi tenant product, a developer tool, or an AI native feature: an agent, an automated workflow, a retrieval layer, or an infrastructure primitive.
Prizes:

Paid internships not tied to the leaderboard
The strongest builders we see on the day get a 3 month paid internship at the Signal Labs Hyderabad office, with a real path to converting to full time based on your contribution during it. This can be a whole team or a single person pulled out of any team. You do not have to place to get one, and placing does not guarantee one.
