See who a hackathon is really for

Organisers rarely spell out who shows up: students or seniors, founders or researchers, AI builders or hardware tinkerers. Every event now carries an estimated audience profile that reads the event's own details and paints a picture: experience level, the kind of people it draws, the technical focus, the industries in play, and signals like beginner-friendly or women-in-tech.

Every estimate comes with a confidence rating and the evidence behind it, so you can see why we think a crowd looks the way it does, and judge for yourself. It turns 'how many attendees?' into the question that actually matters when you're deciding where to spend your time or sponsorship: who's in the room.
