One month of asynchronous building funnels thousands of developers down to twenty finalists on a studio stage.
Phase 01 · Qualifier
A month-long, fully remote hackathon — the only gate into the show. Register, get your pre-funded Google Cloud sandbox, and build on your own time across the 30-day window. No fixed hours, no live sprints. Your submissions move you up a live, gamified leaderboard.
Under 60 seconds. Your sandbox is provisioned instantly.
Ship challenges natively at your own pace, on your own schedule.
Every submission is scored and ranked live on the leaderboard.
Phase 02 · The Cuts
The leaderboard decides. Only the top hundred advance.
A technical evaluation paired with a media screening on camera.
The remaining professionals are paired into 10 power duos.
Phase 03 · The Show
This streams on AIM Originals. Ten duos build fully operational applications inside time-compressed studio rounds, then pitch their stack to a panel of industry leaders. The strongest builds claim the cash awards and the Season Best Trophy.
