AI × Commerce Hackathon — Growzilla × Forest City

Build the future of commerce in 5 hours using Claude Code

Shopify Partner Event • Sponsored by Render

Not a toy hackathon.
We’re building what the next generation of commerce tools could look like.


What you’ll build

AI-native systems for commerce:

  • AI store assistant

  • Attribution + analytics engine

  • Inventory + automation system

  • AI “CEO” running the store

  • Storefront + checkout layer

  • Something no one has seen yet

Sky is the limit.
The bar: could this be a real enterprise product?


Format
5-hour build • no prep needed • solo or teams (max 4)
No Shopify dev experience required


What you get
Commerce environment (Shopify: products, orders, data) • clean app base • Claude Code-ready setup • support


Build → Launch → Demo
Ship fast, then present it like a real product
Short launch-style video included (Bazaar provides the tool)


Judging
Business potential • launch video • commerce problem • AI leverage & execution • product quality & taste


Prizes
