Musa Labs Hackathon SF Sponsored by Azure
Musa Capital is bringing the energy of next-generation AI development to San Francisco and Los Angeles. This one-day hackathon, co-hosted with Microsoft and Sumtyme, challenges participants to push the boundaries of multi-agent AI systems and time-series intelligence. Builders will leverage Azure AI Foundry alongside Sumtyme’s predictive algorithms to design impactful applications, stress-test AI models, and compete for cash prizes.
Challenge Areas
Microsoft Challenge (Morning): Use Azure AI Foundry to design multi-agent AI systems that tackle real-world problems in logistics, robotics, and manufacturing.
Sumtyme Challenge (Afternoon): Stress-test Sumtyme’s time-series algorithms by applying them to unique market events. Participants will be tasked with finding blind spots or creating innovative applications around the models, similar to a “bug bounty” format.
Event Schedule
10:00 AM – 1:00 PM | Microsoft Lab & Challenge
Guided session with Microsoft engineers, hands-on with Azure AI Foundry, and multi-agent system challenge1:00 PM – 5:00 PM | Sumtyme Challenge
Teams call APIs, model market events, and attempt to break or expand Sumtyme’s time-series AI models5:00 PM – 6:00 PM | Judging & Awards
Presentations and scoring based on impact, creativity, and completeness6:00 PM – 8:00 PM | Networking Happy Hour & Dinner
Judging Criteria
Projects will be evaluated on:
Impact of Industry Use Case: Commercial relevance, dollar-scale, or potential disruption in logistics, robotics, manufacturing, or financial modeling.
Responsible & Ethical AI: Transparency, compliance, and safeguards in multi-agent and time-series applications.
Completeness of Product: Functionality and polish of the prototype or stress-test outcome within the hackathon timeframe.
Prizes
Microsoft Track: $500 for best multi-agent AI system
Sumtyme Track: $500 for best market event stress test or application
Bonus: Teams placing in both tracks are eligible for an additional $500 — bringing the total potential prize pool to $1,500.
