AI Agent Hackathon by Beta Fund: $70K Cash Prizes

🏆 AI Lab: Seed Agents Challenge Experience the Future of AI Video & Agentic Workflows Join Beta University for an exclusive showcase of the most advanced AI agent applications being built today. After a rigorous global competition and a selective "rolling admission" process, the top 20 teams have been flown into Silicon Valley to present their prototypes. These builders are leveraging a Next-Generation Seed Agent Family—a cutting-edge suite of models for multimodal analysis and video generation—to redefine vertical industries, content automation, and physical AI. 🌟 Check more details and submit your projects on our website 📅 Event Details Submission date: April 19th (Early Submission) April 27th (Hard Deadline)Location: Online for now, Demo at May 2ndAll the Tracks, requirements are on our website Audience: VCs, AI Researchers, Tech Executives, and Serial Founder ✨ Why Attend? High-Signal Talent: Witness live demos from the top 20 teams selected from a global pool of elite engineers and researchers.Exclusive Tech Preview: See the first real-world applications of a new, highly-anticipated Seed Agent infrastructure before it hits the broader market.Elite Networking: Connect with our "Power Panel" of judges and mentors from a16z, NEA, Mayfield, OpenAI, Anthropic, and YC.The "Agentic" Frontier: Move beyond "wrappers." See autonomous video agents, simulation engines for robotics, and end-to-end enterprise automation in action. 🎤 The Power Panel (Judges & VCs) Experience live feedback and scoring from a curated panel of industry titans: Institutional Investors: Partners from Tier-1 firms (a16z, Mayfield, Llama Ventures, NEA, etc.)Technical Leaders: Experts from the world’s leading AI labs (OpenAI, Anthropic).Strategic Operators: Founders of YC-backed and a16z-backed AI unicorns. 🕒 Agenda and requirements for Hackathon: Early Submission on April 19th (We will cover the flight tickets and hotel for May 2nd if selected) Hard deadline April 27th AI-Generated Content RequirementsAll video outputs generated by your prototype must be created using BytePlus Seed models.You must use at least one of the following: Seed 2.0 - for pre-content generation: prompt enhancement, video/image analysis,script generation, and OA/OC proceduresSeedance 2.0-for Al video generation (image-to-video, text-to-video)Seedream 5.0 - for Al image generation (keyframes, storyboard assets, inputframes) Seed Speech - for Al voice synthesis and narrationOmniHuman - for digital human synthesis and talking-head generatior Teams may integrate third-party tools (e.g. LLMs for orchestration, external APIs forworkflow logic) but the core video generation must run on Seed models. External videogeneration tools (Runway, Sora, Kling, etc.) are not permitted in the final output. 🎟️ Admission & Registration This is a curated, invite-only event for the AI ecosystem.
