Robotic Agents Hackathon
🤖 Robotic Agents Hack: Build Agents That Move
We’re bringing real robots on the ground so anyone can build with them.
A one-day, in-person developer hackathon organised by Cyberwave, focused on building AI agents that sense the physical world, reason with tools, and take real-world action.
With powerhouse partners including Elevenlabs, Toolhouse.ai, Smallest.ai, Scrapegraph AI, Featherless.ai, and Jade Hosting, we’re making this one of the most stacked AI + robotics hackathons in SF.
