Healthcare x AI Hackathon
Healthcare x AI Hackathon (Pre-JPM) 🧬
Brought to you by Healthcare AI Guy & AI Collective
San Francisco | Jan 10–11 (weekend before JPM)
A 2-day, hands-on hackathon to build real AI tools and agents for healthcare.
Calling all SF engineers, PMs, founders, and hackers building at the edge of healthcare and AI. This is your chance to test that half-built idea, ship something scrappy-but-real, and meet like-minded people solving hard problems in regulated spaces. Whether you’re a healthtech veteran or just curious about deploying AI in high-stakes workflows, this event is for you. You’ll walk away with new ideas, new collaborators, and a clearer sense of what’s possible. Come for the hacking, stay for the good people, good food, and good vibes.

What to Expect
The Healthcare x AI Hackathon is a 2-day sprint (Saturday + Sunday) hosted by Healthcare AI Guy and The AI Collective.
You can apply individually or as a team. We’ll help match you on-site if you’re solo, or you’re welcome to hack solo too.
Expect:
Infra tools, APIs, and more available to use
Lightning talks + demos from leading voices in AI and healthcare
Mentors on-site to help shape and refine your ideas
Food, coffee, and plenty of time and space to build
A supportive, no-ego environment focused on learning and shipping
This isn’t a pitch competition or demo fest. It’s dedicated time to build, learn, and connect.
Who It’s For
AI, ML, full-stack, and product engineers
Healthcare startup teams (idea to Series B+)
Product folks & PMs in regulated tech
API / tool companies with something to test in the wild
Health AI enthusiasts
VCs & angels scouting sharp builders
