About

From intelligence to the physical world

We’ve spent the last few years pushing the limits of what AI can do in the digital world.

Now that intelligence is moving into the physical one.

Robotics, manufacturing, industrial systems, infrastructure and machines are becoming programmable in entirely new ways. The gap between an idea and something that can perceive, reason and act in the real world is getting smaller by the month.

This hack is for the builders pushing that frontier.

The Hack

One day with 60 handpicked engineers, founders and technical builders, working in teams of to prototype new applications at the intersection of AI and the physical world together with Transition, NEA & MicroAGI.

Robotics, industrial automation, manufacturing, infrastructure, computer vision, logistics and beyond.

We provide the space, product credits, food and a room full of exceptional builders.
