Devpost

Halfway through Agentic Cinema with submissions closing September 7. If you caught IBM's build session today, you already know how fast an AI coding teammate can move you from idea to prototype. Coming up tomorrow, The Agent's Memory: Powering Real-Time AI Workflows with ClickHouse! You'll learn how to give your build a fast, real-time backend using ClickHouse as the data layer behind a Gemini Enterprise agent. Tuesday, August 18th at 11AM ET. See you there! https://lnkd.in/d66hk8SY Not registered for the hackathon? There's still time! Register today: https://lnkd.in/dPhEYvbs

When Crusoe Sr Developer Relations Manager Emmanuel Acheampong organized HACK.CRUSOE, our first internal companywide hackathon, his goal was to get more employees building with Crusoe Managed Inference (MI), including people who had never used it before. As Emmanuel explains in a new Devpost case study, 73% of HACK.CRUSOE participants were first-time MI users, yet every submitted project reached production quality, with the top 30% confirmed for production and C-suite conversations underway. 🎉 The case study explores how Emmanuel and the Crusoe for Developers team designed a hackathon event accessible enough to attract broad participation while still producing projects with real production potential — and why Devpost for Teams was an important part of making that possible.

Great ideas happen when you combine innovation, competition and a little friendly rivalry. Candescent's first company-wide AI hackathon is the proof.    Hundreds of employees came together for 48 hours to tackle real business challenges across security, onboarding, payments, operational intelligence, and product innovation.   The challenge sparked creativity. The competition fueled momentum. And the results went far beyond the event itself, with 10 of the top 120 submitted ideas advancing into active development within weeks.   A special thank you to CTO Satheesh Ravala for kicking off what has now become a catalyst for a quarterly AI innovation program where innovation can thrive and great ideas break through.   Read the Devpost article: https://lnkd.in/eG2BaztV

Candescent's company-wide hackathon is proof of what happens when you give teams dedicated time to experiment and build with AI, an effort led by CTO Satheesh Ravala. Candescent ran the hackathon on Devpost for Teams, aligning every submission to company priorities like security, onboarding, payments, operational intelligence, and product innovation. Key results: → 460+ employees formed 120+ teams and submitted 120 projects → Almost every team that formed finished a project → The Top 10 projects advanced into active development within weeks → These outcomes made the case for a recurring quarterly program Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/eiD9Bx34

Parallel Web Systems is running a live, beginner-friendly session during the Agentic Cinema Hackathon. Introducing Getting Started with Parallel: Build a Web-Grounded Gemini Agent! During this session you'll be connecting Gemini to Parallel Search through Gemini's native grounding tool, running a real grounded query end to end, and checking the citations to confirm it's actually calling Parallel at runtime. 👀 📅 Aug 21, 12:30 PM ET 🔗 Register Today: https://lnkd.in/dFAeaKmW

Another Devpost Build Session for Agentic Cinema! Introducing The Agent's Memory: Powering Real-Time AI Workflows with ClickHouse. This session gets specific: setting up a ClickHouse Cloud or self-hosted cluster, connecting it to your agent through the official MCP server, and running real queries live. If you're on the ClickHouse track (or just curious about their MCP in general), this is a session you won't want to miss. You'll walk away with a working example of an agent actually calling ClickHouse tools, plus a look at ClickHouse Agent Skills to speed up your dev process. 📅 Aug 18, 11:00 AM ET Register today: https://lnkd.in/d66hk8SY

Prompt, answer, "Hey, do better", "No, not that.", repeat. That's the old cycle of building with and leveraging AI. Google Cloud's new hackathon, All Things Agentic, is asking builders to go further: create agents that take a goal, make a plan, and carry it out end to end. Built on Gemini 3.5 and Google's Agent Development Kit, this is a global hackathon open to every skill level. Three tracks to choose from: Taskmaster — automate a real, messy workflow end to end Collaborative Partner — build an agent that guides and adapts to the user Fortified Enterprise Fleet — build agents that operate safely inside enterprise infrastructure $180,000 in prizes. $150 in Google Cloud credits to get started. Submissions close August 31. Register Today!: https://lnkd.in/dM4UGX4S
