Computer-use agents. €13,000 in cash prizes. One weekend to build something that works.
November 7–8, 2026 · La Maison by Motier Ventures, Paris
Join H Company and 42AI for an in-person hackathon dedicated to AI agents that interact with real software and get things done.
With the support of Gladia, Linkup, Cognition (Devin), Stripe, and Morning.
The challenge
Build an agent that can navigate websites, desktop apps, and software interfaces to complete a meaningful real-world task. Pick a use case, build it, and show it working.
H Company brings its Agents API and specialized models. Explore the documentation before the weekend and come ready to build.
Aim for a working demo that clearly shows the problem, the actions your agent takes, and the result.
