Global AI Hackathon: Uniting Innovators Worldwide

Submission Guidelines

Each team may submit only one final Writeup, but you can un-submit, edit, and re-submit as many times as you want before the deadline.

Your Writeup should:

• Provide a clear summary of your project
• Include links to supporting resources (code, demos, etc.)

⚠️ Important: Only Writeups that are submitted before the deadline will be considered. Drafts or un-submitted entries will not be reviewed by the judges.

Required and Optional Deliverables

a. Code Repository (required)
Your solution must be well-documented and reproducible.

• Code should be public and viewable without login (GitHub repo, Hugging Face space, Kaggle notebook, etc.).
• The goal is to validate your project’s authenticity and technical depth.

b. Video or Blog (optional, but highly recommended)
We encourage you to create a short video demo or public blog post telling the story of your project.

• Show us how you used AI to solve your chosen problem.
• Formats: YouTube, Medium, TikTok, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, or other public platforms.
• Must be viewable without login.

c. User Survey (optional, bonus points)
Each team is encouraged to complete a short Lovable online survey about your project.

• Bonus points are awarded for completeness of the survey.
• Answers themselves are not graded, only whether the survey is fully completed.
