About Event

Beta Fund AI Agents for Hire Hackathon

🛑 Everyone talks about AI agents, but most still feel like demos. They answer questions, move slowly, and fall apart the second real work gets messy. We are past that. Agents are becoming actual workers: focused, deployable, discoverable, and ready to be hired for real jobs people would happily pay to offload.
