Sirius x Open Swarm Hackathon @ Entrepreneurs First

We're hosting a hackathon at the EF office in SF together with the teams from Sirius and Open Swarm, and it should be a really fun one so come through. If you haven't come across them yet, Sirius (a16z speedrun SR006) is an AI retention platform that steps in the moment a customer tries to cancel a subscription and figures out the right offer to keep them around, and Open Swarm is an AI desktop that lets you run a bunch of agents in one place so they can actually work together on stuff instead of you juggling ten different windows. The idea for the day is pretty simple: you'll be using Open Swarm to build things for Sirius, so think agents that can figure out why a customer is leaving and pick the offer most likely to save them, or a swarm that tests cancel flows automatically, or honestly whatever weird idea you come up with once you start playing with the tools. Engineers from both companies are going to be hanging around all day, which means when you inevitably get stuck in the afternoon you can just walk over and ask the person who actually built the thing, which is not something you get at most hackathons. There's up to $1000 in cash prizes for the winners and interviews with EF, Sirius, and Open Swarm! it's actual cash that you get handed the same day. Food and coffee are covered the whole time, and you don't need to show up with a team or even an idea since plenty of people will be forming teams in the morning anyway. We'll do demos at the end of the day, pick the winners, and then hang out for a bit after. Doors open at 10am at EF. Hope to see you there.
