Build something real with money moving through it — in a day.
We're teaming up with Stripe for a one-day hackathon where teams build payments-flavored products powered by Claude. Think AI agents that can check out a cart, reconcile an invoice, or route a payout — the kind of thing that's genuinely hard to build well and genuinely fun to demo.
What to expect
• Morning kickoff with a lightning intro to the Stripe API and Claude's tool-use capabilities
• Team formation on-site (solo builders welcome — we'll help you find a team)
• A full day of building, with Stripe and Anthropic engineers roaming for questions
• Afternoon demos in front of a Stripe/Anthropic judging panel
• Prizes for the top teams, plus swag for everyone who shipsWho should come
Engineers, designers, and product people who want hands-on time with Claude and Stripe's APIs — all skill levels welcome, especially first-time hackers.Bring
A laptop, a charger, and an idea (or don't — we'll have prompts ready).Coffee, lunch, and dinner are on us. Come build.
