SDx @ UC San Diego AI Agent Hackathon
We’re hosting the Anthropic x Parallel AI Agent Hackathon on Saturday, October 26 from 12:00–6:00 PM at The Basement.
Use the Claude Agent SDK to compose your LLM, tools, and memory and build on Parallel’s powerful search and data APIs to process live web information. This hackathon is your chance to apply the latest capabilities of agentic models to projects spanning healthcare, research, education, finance, and more.
$200 in prizes will be awarded to the winners, and all builders will receive $50 of claude credits and $10 in parallel credits.
The event is sponsored by Parallel and held in partnership with Anthropic’s Claude team and Claude Ambassadors.
*note - there is no requirement to build a project from scratch, builders are welcome to integrate these APIs into existing systems.
