AI x Fintech Hackathon - Money Talks 2
AI × Finance Hackathon: Money Talks 2
One day. One goal: build what finance uses next.
Money Talks is back. Hosted by Block Convey, Money Talks 2 brings builders, founders, engineers, designers, and finance operators into one room to build real AI products for finance. No slide decks. Real products, real demos, real industry problems.
Choose one of three tracks:
Money Intelligence
Build AI that helps people understand financial information and make better decisions. Think investing, research, analysis, portfolio intelligence, and personal finance.
Money Operations
Build AI that improves how money moves and how finance teams operate. Think payments, expenses, reconciliation, invoices, CFO workflows, and automation.
Trust & Risk
Build AI that helps financial systems make safer decisions. Think fraud, risk, compliance, security, and trustworthy financial AI.
Track sponsors will bring specific challenges within each track.
