NYC Frontier Hackathon: Build your Autonomous Code Factory

In this 10+ hour intensive hackathon led by the research team at Obvious you will build your autonomous software factory. TLDR: you'll be able to start assigning your agents features to build instead of prompts. Note: This event is entirely free, including unlimited tokens for the hackathon. Building and tokens will be using an obvious.ai workspace. We will be awarding over $30K in token prizes to the teams that can build the most in a day! 1st place receives $20,000 worth of Obvious Fusion credits 2nd place receives $10,000 worth of Obvious Fusion credits 3rd place receives $5,000 worth of Obvious Fusion credits Come alone or come as a team. If you want to valuemaxx this event (and set yourself up to win big) the ideal group to bring is: a technical founder or engineering leader a product manager (if you have one) 1+ engineers (the more ai-pilled the better) What to bring Your laptop Access to a real Github repo you care about [or] a clear vision for a greenfield project A bug backlog or a list of small improvements We'll set up your Obvious workspace and go through onboarding in-person. Meals and drinks are provided.
