Build agents that act on behalf of users Most agents are demos. They call APIs. They look impressive. But the moment they need to act as a specific user in a real system, with real permissions, they fall apart.This hackathon is about that last mile. Build an AI agent that doesn't just execute tasks - it does it as the right person, with the right access, in the right context. Date: Saturday, June 27Location: TBD, San Francisco The problem Connecting an agent to a CRM (or any app) is easy. Updating a record as a specific user, respecting their tenant, their permissions, their identity is where most demos break. Today, you're solving the hard part. You'll build agents that act on behalf of real users: not as root, not as a service account, but as the person the action belongs to. Schedule 🕘 9:30 – 9:45 AM Check-InGrab your badge and get settled in for the day. 🕤 9:45 – 10:15 AM Welcome & Track OverviewsKickoff, API walkthroughs, and track breakdowns. 🕙 10:15 AM – 4:30 PM Build TimeHack, attend workshops, get mentor guidance. 🍕 Pizza lunch provided. 🕓 4:45 PM Submissions DueFinal code locked. No extensions. 🕔 5:00 – 5:25 PM Community showcases 4 companies, 5 mins each — tools and products the room should know about 🕔 5:30 – 7:00 PM — Demos & JudgingPresent to the room and vote for your favorites. 🕖 7:00 – 7:30 PM — Networking & DrinksCelebrate, connect, and decompress. Judging criteria Projects are scored equally across four dimensions: 🔭 Innovation (25%) — Is the approach novel? Does it solve the problem in a way we haven't seen before? ⚙️ Technical Complexity (25%) — How well-built is the solution? Does it genuinely leverage all 3 tools? 🌍 Impact (25%) — Does this solve a real problem? Could it scale beyond the demo? 🎯 Presentation & Usability (25%) — Is the demo clear and compelling? Would someone actually want to use this? Prizes 🥇 1st place: $1200 (cash + credits) 🥈 2nd place: $850 (cash + credits) 🥉 3rd place: $500 credits Who should come This is for you if you're a founder, hacker, AI engineer, or builder who wants to work on the leading edge of agentic AI. We'll have API docs, live walkthroughs, and mentors on hand all day. Whether you come solo or with a team, you'll leave with working code, new connections, and a sharper intuition for building agents that actually do things. About the organizer Scalekit is the connectivity layer between AI agents and enterprise apps - SaaS apps, APIs, MCP servers. Agent builders use our SDK to let agents act on behalf of users with per-user token lifecycle, scoped permissions, and tool-calling that holds up in production. Actian VectorAI DB helps developers build AI agents that don't need the cloud to think. Whether you're building RAG pipelines or autonomous agents, it gives you fast, local vector search with full control over your data and infrastructure. Render is a unified cloud platform where developers build, deploy, and scale everything from prototypes to production — with zero infrastructure setup. Push code, get a live URL.
