What if the finance work just did itself?At this hackathon, you'll build the finance function you wish you had: agents that do the work a founder, a fractional CFO or an ops lead currently does by hand.The idea is simple. Financial operations is the most repetitive, boring and quietly time-consuming work in a startup — and most of it can be automated now. Give an agent structured access to the money records and most of it week becomes a workflow.That's what the Seapoint MCP does, and we're launching it here. Accounts and balances, reporting, transactions and spend, cards, bills and invoices, vendors, treasury, burn and runway — queryable by your agent.Pick a piece of financial operations — the month-end close, the board pack, the payment run — and build something that does it. You'll work in a Seapoint sandbox with seeded transaction data, so no real bank accounts and no real money. At code freeze you submit a short demoWork solo or in teams of up to 3. If you're building in a team, we'll suggest mixing it: someone commercial, someone who knows finance properly, someone who can ship. Come with a team or find one on the night.

👥 Who this is forFounders, CFOs, fractional CFOs, finance and ops leads, chiefs of staff — anyone who owns or touches the finances of an early-stage (Pre-Seed to Series A) company. Technical, semi-technical, or the person who knows exactly what should be built and needs someone to build it.
