Adsystems 2026: Autonomous Growth Agents Hackathon

​AdsSystems 2026: Architecting Autonomous Growth Agents Hackathon
Build the AI Operating System for Advertisers

​Dashboards are dead. We’re building autonomous systems that think like performance marketers.

​This is a one-day, in-person AI Agents hackathon. Teams will design and ship production-grade growth systems that can generate hypotheses, run experiments, evaluate results, and iterate on ad strategy with minimal human intervention.

​This is not a demo contest.
It’s an engineering + systems challenge — orchestration, tool use, eval loops, reliability.

​Prizes

• ​🏆 $5,000 Prize

• ​🥇 Best Use of Composio — $25,000 API credits + startup program access (Sponsored by Composio)

​Who Should Apply

• ​Backend engineers

• ​Full-stack AI engineers

• ​Agent builders
