Localhost 2.0

​Build an AI agent for medicine. Solo. Six hours.

​

​Saturday, September 12, 9am to 4pm

​Doug Meijer Medical Innovation Building

​109 Michigan St NW, 4th floor, Grand Rapids

​

​The challenge

​

​Pick any medical process and build an agent for it. Intake, triage, charting, scheduling, records requests, prior auth, discharge follow up, lab result explanations, med reconciliation. Clinical or administrative, human or veterinary, patient facing or staff facing.

​

​Free form beyond that. Any stack, any model, local or hosted. No required APIs, no required frameworks. AI coding tools encouraged.

​

​We're running this in a medical innovation building on the Medical Mile, surrounded by hospitals and research labs. Healthcare is what this city builds, so that's what we're building for.

​

​Solo, not teams

​

​Everyone builds their own project. No group to find, nothing to organize. Show up alone and you're fine.

​

​Schedule

​

​

​Submissions

​

​Due before demos: a public GitHub repo, and a video demo of three minutes or less showing the agent running.

​

​Work must be new. Start from scratch tomorrow. Libraries, boilerplate, and starter templates are fine. An existing project is not.
