Introduction to Opus
Opus is an AI-native workflow builder developed by AppliedAI that converts plain-language prompts into executable workflows. It provides a visual canvas where users drag, connect, and configure nodes such as inputs and outputs, AI agents, human review steps, integrations, and decision logic. Workflows can be executed as jobs with full logs and traceability.
Key capabilities include:
Prompt-to-workflow generation from natural languageVisual canvas builder with no coding requiredAI Agent nodes for intelligent processingDecision nodes for conditional routingHuman Review checkpoints for validationOCR and text extraction for documentsExternal integrations and custom Python execution
About the Hackathon
This hackathon is a practical build session where participants work directly with Opus to design and execute automation workflows. After a short introduction and demonstration, teams will define use cases, construct workflows, and run them end-to-end.
Participants are encouraged to explore workflow orchestration, agent coordination, decision routing, and human-in-the-loop validation to solve operational or analytical problems. Mentors will be available throughout the session for technical guidance.
The event concludes with short presentations where teams showcase their workflows and discuss their approach.
