The Experience
The In-Person Finale
A fun, high-energy day of building, hanging out with friends, and showcasing your projects in Mountain View.
A free, inclusive challenge empowering students of all backgrounds to build with AI through fun & easy workshops! No coding experience required — just curiosity, creativity, and the courage to learn.
The AI Fluency for All program is committed to ensuring AI literacy is a foundational skill available to every student — regardless of their technical background or zip code.
We break down how AI actually works so you can stop being just a consumer of technology and start being a creator. No prior experience needed—just curiosity.
Get hands-on with tools like Replit and modern AI models. You'll learn how to take a wild idea, write effective prompts, and actually build it into a working app.
Hackathons are about having fun and building together. You'll collaborate with like-minded peers in a supportive, low-pressure environment to solve problems you care about.
We remove every barrier that might prevent a talented student from participating.
Full coverage for Caltrain and Uber costs for safe, reliable travel to and from the venue.
High-quality laptops provided for any participant who needs one. No student left behind.
Zero prior coding experience is required. We provide the mentorship and curriculum to help anyone succeed.
Two hands-on workshops to get you ready for the hackathon. We run each one twice so you can pick the date that works best for you. All sessions are virtual on Zoom.
Your launchpad into the program! We'll get you set up on Replit, break down what AI actually is (and isn't), and walk through how hackathons work. By the end, you'll have built your first mini-project using AI — no experience needed.
The main hands-on session. You'll learn how to write effective AI prompts, use AI tools responsibly, debug like a pro, and work with your team to build a real project from scratch — including a live demo walkthrough.
The main event! A full-day immersive experience from 8 AM to 6 PM at Egnyte corporate HQ. Build, present, and compete for prizes!
We celebrate the courage it takes to learn something new and build with AI.
