About this hackathon
In partnership with Unicorn Factory, LeWagon and Sitio
Hosted by Audacity
Sponsored by PLEEZ, PromptHero & Range
Ship something real with AI. Walk away with a robot dog — or a job offer.
Audacity (audacity.to) is bringing together 50 of Lisbon's sharpest builders for a one-day, in-person hackathon — powered by three of the most exciting AI-forward companies in the game.
Three sponsors. Three challenges. One winner takes home a PuppyPi Pro — an AI-powered quadruped robot with ChatGPT integration, computer vision, voice interaction, LiDAR, and a robotic arm. Yes, it's as cool as it sounds.
This is an individual hackathon. No teams. Just you, your laptop, and whatever AI tools you wield.

Each sponsor is bringing a unique challenge for you to solve:
🟢 Range — range.org The stablecoin risk and intelligence platform trusted by top issuers, protocols, and financial institutions. Making every blockchain transaction transparent and secure.
