🚀GPT-5 Hack Sprint

​What’s Happening

​One day hackathon for our portfolio companies to build GPT-5-powered solutions to real workflow problems. You bring the problem. You form the team. You design, build, and demo the fix that delivers 10x improvements in productivity, decision-making, and creativity.

​Why Now

​GPT-5 just landed. It’s sharper, faster, and multimodal — able to code, reason, write, analyze, and see all in one. This isn’t about “learning AI someday.”
This is: pick something you actually do every week, tear it apart, and rebuild it so it’s 10x faster, cheaper, or better — in one day.

​Who’s In

• ​Engineers, PMs, ops leads, sales, marketing, designers, finance, legal, HR — if you touch a workflow, you’re welcome.

• ​Teams of 2–4 (mix skill sets for maximum firepower).

• ​No AI background needed — just the drive to build and solve problems.

​Example Problem Statements

• ​“We spend hours each week triaging customer support tickets.”

• ​“Our sales team manually compiles data from 5 tools before every pitch.”

• ​“We lose too much time summarizing and tagging meeting notes.”

• ​“Researching competitors means 12 tabs open and half a day gone.

​Example Automated Workflows

• ​Auto-summarize and tag every incoming support ticket for instant routing

• ​Generate custom, data-driven pitch decks from a CRM in seconds

• ​Turn meeting transcripts into action-item lists with owner assignments

• ​Build a dashboard that monitors competitors’ public updates and flags change

​Schedule

• ​10:00am — Kickoff + lightning GPT-5 demos (what’s new, what’s possible)

• ​10:45am — Finalize your workflow with your teams

• ​11:00am – 4:00pm — Hack hack. Build build.

• ​4:00pm — Demos + quickfire judging

• ​5:00pm — Prizes + wrap-up

• ​Enjoy pizza, beer and trading learnings and workflows

​Judging criteria

• ​Impact – Did you actually 10x something?

• ​Execution – Does it work right now?

• ​Ingenuity – Smart, creative use of GPT-5’s new capabilities

• ​Practicality – Feasibility of real-world deployment

​Prizes
