Join founders, builders, creators, students, and entrepreneurs for an intensive one-day challenge where you’ll use Kylon and AI teammates to turn an idea into a real, launch-ready startup. This isn’t a traditional hackathon focused on writing the most code. The goal is to build a complete business — validate a real problem, develop the product, create your AI-powered organization, and pitch your startup. What You’ll Build Throughout the day, your team will work through the key stages of building a startup: Discover — Identify a meaningful problem and define your customer Validate — Research the market and test your assumptions Build — Create your product and working MVP Organize — Build AI teammates to help with product, research, marketing, sales, strategy, and more Launch — Develop your brand, landing page, business model, and go-to-market strategy Pitch — Present your startup, product, and vision to judges and investors Your AI Team With Kylon, you’ll build an AI-powered organization designed around your startup. Create the teammates you need — from AI co-founders and product managers to researchers, engineers, marketers, sales agents, and strategic advisors — and use them to accelerate your startup throughout the challenge. Who Should Join? Founders • Developers • Designers • Product Managers • Students • Marketers • Business Owners • Researchers • Entrepreneurs You don’t need to be a technical expert. A strong idea, domain knowledge, creativity, and the ability to use AI effectively can be just as valuable. What Judges Will Look For Teams will be evaluated on: Problem & customer validation Market opportunity Product quality Business model AI-native execution Creativity and effectiveness of AI teammates Go-to-market strategy Startup potential Quality of the final pitch and demo The Goal By the end of the day, you won’t just have a prototype. You’ll have the foundation of a real AI-native startup — and the opportunity to put it in front of mentors, investors, and the broader startup community. One day. One idea. One startup. Build your AI-native startup with Kylon.
