Name your hackathon, define tracks with prizes, set judging criteria and weights, choose a timeline. The wizard handles structure — you provide the vision.
Your hackathon page goes live on the public directory. Builders discover it, register with one click, and indicate whether they need a team.
The team board connects builders by skill. Teams form, projects develop iteratively — drafts save automatically, final submissions lock at deadline.
Judges see one submission at a time with your rubric. Scores aggregate. Results publish. Prize funds distribute to winners automatically.
Registration count, team formation rate, submission rate, judging progress, and prize status — live.
Solo builders post their skills. Open teams list gaps. No Discord, no DMs, no matchmaking spreadsheet.
Define criteria with weights. Judges score one project at a time. Conflict of interest? Recuse. Scores aggregate automatically.
Save drafts early, refine over the hack period. Demo link, repo, video, pitch deck — all structured. Final submit locks at deadline.
Prize pool funded before publish — a hard requirement. Winners claim via wallet or bank transfer. Unclaimed prizes revert after 90 days.
Define exactly what information you need. No external form. Confirmation emails automatic. Data stays in one place.
Set up tracks, define judging criteria, fund the prize pool. Builders start registering in under twenty minutes.
