What are Austin’s technical leaders building when no one is watching?

Join AITX, the Austin CTO Club, and Antler for CTO Demo Night, an evening where local CTOs share the side projects, prototypes, internal tools, AI experiments, and weekend hacks they’ve been building outside the normal product roadmap.

This is not a polished pitch night. It’s a builder-focused demo session designed for honest feedback, technical discussion, and real community exchange. Each demo will give attendees a look into how experienced technical leaders think through new ideas, test emerging tools, and explore what might become the next product, startup, or open-source project.

Expect a room full of local engineers, founders, operators, and AI builders discussing what’s working, what’s breaking, and what’s actually useful.

Who should come:

This event is for:

  • CTOs, engineering leaders, and technical founders

  • Engineers building side projects or experimenting with new tools

  • Founders looking for technical inspiration and feedback

  • AI builders interested in practical demos from local leaders

  • Anyone who wants a closer look at what Austin’s technical community is hacking on

What to expect:

  • Live demos from local CTOs and technical leaders

  • Honest feedback from engineers and founders in the room

  • Discussion around architecture, product direction, tooling, and use cases

  • A casual, high-signal environment for meeting other builders

  • Practical insight into what Austin’s technical leaders are exploring right now
