Engineering fairness, ensuring transparency. Run hackathons with confidence using advanced judging, real-time leaderboards, and complete audit trails.
Most organizers struggle with fragmented workflows, complex setups, and judging systems that were built as an afterthought.
Registration on one platform, submissions on another, judging in spreadsheets. Switching between tools wastes time and creates errors.
Existing platforms are either too simple for serious events or too complex to configure without technical expertise.
Fixed 1-5 scales, no weighted criteria, no judge assignments. Results end up in Excel anyway.
Participants and sponsors can't understand how winners were chosen. No audit trail, no accountability.
