AITX Community x Codex Hackathon

AITX Community is teaming up with Codex for a 48 hour hackathon in Austin. If you're an engineer, systems builder, or founder who likes building things with AI, this one's for you. What to expect You'll get a full weekend to build with Codex alongside other builders in the Texas AI community. There will be tracks to compete in, prizes to win, and mentors on-site to help you ship something real. Meals are covered all three days, and the venue is open overnight for anyone who wants to keep hacking. Friday evening kicks off with check-in, a walkthrough of the hackathon, dinner, and building. Saturday is a full build day with 3 full meals, networking, and progress check-ins. Sunday wraps with a code freeze & submissions in the morning, culminating in Hack Fair, where teams get to demo their submissions to the broader Austin community. Whether you come with a team or come solo and find one here, you'll leave the weekend with a working project, new connections, and a better understanding of what you can build with Codex. Who this is for Software engineers, AI/ML engineers, product designers, founders, and students who want hands-on time building with cutting-edge AI tools.
