Can you take a coding agent and make it work in an enterprise environment? Handle complexity, survive interruptions, keep humans in the loop, and solve real problems in production? UiPath AgentHack has officially launched and you'll get a chance to prove it! Three tracks: → UiPath Maestro Case — Orchestrate dynamic, exception-heavy business processes → UiPath Maestro BPMN — Model and run end-to-end processes using BPMN 2.0 → UiPath Test Cloud — Reimagine how enterprise software testing is designed and automated Builders gets free UiPath Labs access with agentic and AI units included! $50,000 in prizes. Open globally. Submissions close June 29. Register Today: https://bit.ly/uipath26li

The tools Reddit, Inc. mods use haven't caught up to the communities they manage. Here's your chance to solve for that! The Reddit Mod Tools & Migrated Apps Hackathon is at the halfway point. $45,000 in prizes across 3 categories! — Best New Mod Tool: Build something the Devvit ecosystem doesn't have yet — Best Ported Data API App: Migrate an existing bot and make it installable by any community — Moderator's Choice: Judged by an actual panel of Reddit mods Just saying! Your build could be the tool mods are searching for right now! Deadline: May 27th → https://lnkd.in/ekRqSCVW

Developers who participate in six or more hackathons ship AI projects to production at 2.2x the rate of first-timers. Each tier of hackathon experience corresponds to a higher shipping rate, which means for companies investing in recurring hackathon programs, the returns compound with every event. The AI Trends Report 2026 breaks down how devs are building with AI. Get the link to the report in the comments 👇

If you have ever wanted to go deep on enterprise-grade observability tooling, the Splunk Agentic Ops Hackathon is your entry point. Splunk's unified data platform allows builders to ingest telemetry from across an entire infrastructure stack and surface insights through AI-native indexing and Search Processing Language. The challenge: architect agentic systems that respond to what the data tells them — autonomous threat detection, intelligent alert routing, real-time SLO enforcement. You bring the agent logic; Splunk brings the machine data at scale. Compete for $20,000 in prizes while building a project that genuinely advances your platform expertise. Deadline: June 15, 2026 Learn more and register: https://zurl.co/WCpnB

New industry report just launched 👇 Three years ago, one AI provider dominated developer projects. Today, market share is split across OpenAI's GPT, Google's Gemini, and Anthropic's Claude, and the competition is still moving fast. The AI Trends Report 2026 draws on data from millions of developers who have built on Devpost over the past 15 years to show how developer AI behavior is actually changing: which tools are gaining ground, what developers are building, and what organizers running AI programs need to understand going into the rest of 2026. The full picture is in the report. Link in the comments.

🏆 Announcing the winners of the Authorized to Act Hackathon with Auth0! The challenge was critical: How do we give local AI agents the identity they need to act as humans without "credential hoarding"? Our builders used the Auth0 Token Vault to prove that "Secret Zero" is a solvable problem. Huge congratulations to our top innovators who are setting the standard for secure AI! See you all at the next one! 🚀 Explore every project in the gallery: https://bit.ly/auth026li Correction: Please see our comment below for the correct project visual for 3rd place winner Amanat!

We're at the midpoint of the Build with MeDo Hackathon, and builders are proving what conversational app development can do at scale. 🤖 MeDo lets you turn conversations into fully functional applications — no coding required. Participants are shipping production-ready apps by describing them in natural language. There's still time to build and submit your project. 💰 $50,000 in prizes 📅 Deadline: May 20, 2026 Join: https://lnkd.in/eHiUw7m6 Baidu, Inc.

If you run hackathons, you're already using one of the most effective tools for driving AI adoption: getting people to actually build. But the approach is different depending on who you're trying to reach, and the outcomes you measure will vary too. Reaching developers looks different from upskilling employees—which looks different from helping customers deepen their use of your tools. This playbook maps out all three.
