For those who want to build a tool that immediately benefits the industry and/or can be turned into a commercial product or company.
You can choose your own challenge (use High Level Purpose and Evaluation Criteria as a guide) or select one of our provided challenges.
Build tools for immediate industry impact
Business: Proof of demand, qualified customer interviews, LOIs, paid-pilot intents, waitlist signups, credible TAM/SOM
Social: Proof of social impact, waitlist signups, subscribers, social media effect, donations, credible estimates of social effect
Consistently running code, clear documentation, engaging demo video with clear explanations
Effect on High Level Purpose is justified with credible assumptions and effect estimates
Use of agentic AI is well justified (automation, can't be solved with just an LLM query, AI Workflow, or basic script)
| Prize Category | Amount |
|---|---|
| Winner #1 | 2500 USDT |
| Winner #2 | 2500 USDT |
| Special Prize for Female Longevity (by AthenaDAO) | 4000 USDT Nominated in $ATH |
