What if you could turn your idea into a working business in just one day?

AI Builders Day 2026 is a high-energy, hands-on build day in Bengaluru, presented by Airtribe and powered by Pine Labs. Up to 500 builders, creators, aspiring entrepreneurs and AI enthusiasts come together to build a company from scratch in just 12 hours.

Powered by the latest AI tools, this is your chance to go beyond ideas and actually build. You will find a problem, build the product, shape a business model and get your first users. You will experience what it takes to turn an idea into something real.

You do not need to be a developer or have startup experience. Whether you are a student, working professional, designer, founder, or simply someone who has always wanted to build a business, you are welcome.
