## AI Hackathon: 24-Hour Startup Sprint
## (you do not have to stay all 24 hours)
The Challenge: Build a real startup from scratch in 24 hours, completely without AI automation.
While AI code generation and "vibe coding" (using modern rapid frameworks, boilerplates, and manual prompt engineering to ship fast) are fully welcome, no LLMs or AI APIs can be baked into the actual product we ship. We are proving that human problem-solving, raw execution, and clean architecture can still disrupt markets old-school style.
### Details
- When: Starting today, Saturday, October 17 at [Insert Time]
- Where: Rose City Coffee Co. (3370 SE Milwaukie Ave, Portland) — pulling a 24-hour lock-in.
- Goal: Form 1 unified team of driven builders, crank out an MVP over the next 24 hours, and transition into a long-term co-founder team to take the company to the next level.
### Who We Need
- 3-4 Hackers & Builders: Programmers, full-stack devs, or vibe coders who can spin up apps at lightning speed using Next.js, Supabase, or your stack of choice.
- 1-2 Product & Business Minds: Designers, marketers, or strategists to lock down the user flow, validation, and pitch.
Bring your laptop, chargers, and high caffeine tolerance. Let’s build something real.
