Introduction

Everything you need to get ready before Saturday 17 October. Jac is the AI-native programming language from Jaseci Labs, so spend a little time with the docs before you arrive. You only have one day to build.

Tools and Technologies
  • Jac: an open-source, AI-native programming language that brings agents, data, backend and frontend together. At least 80% of your code must be Jac.
  • Jaseci: the Jaseci Labs ecosystem around Jac. Judges look for excellent use of both Jac and Jaseci.
  • Jac Hammer: lets teams host their apps, free on the sandbox. Hosting your project here is encouraged so judges can try it.
  • GitHub: your project lives in a GitHub repo, which is checked against the 80% Jac rule.
Inspiration

Not sure what to build? The judges reward depth of agentic behaviour, impact and novelty, so pick a problem where an AI agent can plan, decide and act. A few starting points (none are required):

  • A study assistant that plans revision and adapts as you learn
  • An agent that triages and routes requests, such as support tickets or campus queries
  • A research helper that gathers, compares and summarises sources
  • A coordinator that breaks a team's goal into tasks and follows them up
  • A tool that fixes a real problem you see around you, in your community or a local business

With one day, aim for a single flow that works end to end, then record your demo video before the deadline rush.
