OpenAI Build Week Community Meetup - Miami
OpenAI Build Week Comes to Miami
Join us for OpenAI Build Week in Miami: an evening where builders, founders, designers, and product people come together to make something real with OpenAI Codex.
No panels about the future. No vague AI hype. We’re going to build.
You’ll see how modern teams are using AI coding agents to move from idea to working product faster than ever. We’ll build one app together live using OpenAI Codex, then watch two demos of real products being built with Codex in actual workflows.
💡 What You’ll Experience
🎁 Free OpenAI Codex tokens credited to attendees so you can build live with us during the evening.
🔸 Part 1: Live Build Session — One App, Built Together with OpenAI Codex
We’ll create one working app together using OpenAI Codex. You’ll see the full workflow: shaping the idea, generating code, reviewing changes, debugging, improving the interface, and turning a rough concept into a real product experience.
🔸 Part 2: Real Product Demo #1 — Building with Codex in the Wild
A live demo of a real product workflow powered by OpenAI Codex, with a practical look at how builders are using AI coding agents beyond toy examples.
🔸 Part 3: Real Product Demo #2 — From Idea to Shipped Feature
Another hands-on product demo showing how Codex can help teams move faster across product, design, engineering, and iteration.
