KPR Hackathon - Atlanta
Build something. In one day. With AI.
The KPR Hackathon brings AEC innovation leaders together for a full day of low-stakes, hands-on experimentation. You will work in a small cross-functional team alongside Zero RFI engineers, using Claude and other AI tools to take an idea from nothing to a working prototype before the day is out.
You do not need to be a developer. Most attendees are not. The tools have gotten good enough that you can build and iterate even if you are new to the process.
When and where
Wednesday, September 23, 2026, full day
WeWork Coda, Atlanta
Happy hour the evening before, Tuesday, September 22, open to the broader Atlanta AEC community
What the day looks like
Arrival and light breakfast, with your environment already set up from a short pre-event session
Teams of roughly five, each paired with a Zero technologist
A full working session with lunch, then prototype presentations to close the day
What came out of the last one
Thirty-plus AEC innovation executives from around the country joined us. Six teams presented after about six hours of work, including an AI-assisted RFP go/no-go tool with a competitive intelligence briefing, a parking lot inspector trainer with a 3D virtual walkthrough, and a spec section Q&A bot that makes spec books query-able.
Who should come
AEC executives, innovation leads, and operators who want direct experience with the technology. Bring your laptop, your charger, and one problem from your business you have wanted to solve.
Before you arrive
Confirm you can install software on your laptop. If your machine is managed by corporate IT and blocks installs, tell us early so we can sort out an alternative. We will run a short setup session ahead of the event so the day starts with building.
Space is limited to keep teams small.
