BLR Builders Hackathon is opening the doors to the agentic multiverse — Bengaluru edition.
One day. 100 builders. Real prize money. Ship something real before dinner.
Registration is capped at 100 builders and approval-based, so register early and tell us what you want to build.
🛠️ The Brief
You are free to build any idea for India. Consumer, B2B, agents, voice, commerce, creative tools — any domain, any stack.
The only requirement: a working prototype, demoed live. Slides don't win here. Working demos do.

🧰 Sponsors
Maya Research
Maya Research builds emotionally intelligent voice AI for the 90% of the world that today's models overlook. Its Maya-1 model ranks #2 globally on Artificial Analysis, delivering native, culturally-nuanced speech in English, Hindi, Telugu, and more. Built in Bengaluru. → mayaresearch.ai
Lamina
Lamina is the AI creative OS for brands. Campaign-ready product photos, try-ons, reels, and banners from a brief and a brand kit — the best image and video models routed behind one platform and one API. Creative teams at Myntra, ITC, SHEIN, and Dabur ship with Lamina, and developers can call it straight from Claude, Cursor, TypeScript, or Python. → uselamina.ai
