Developer Tool World-Cup | Stop 1 | SearchHack: Build the next layer of AI search
- WHO IT IS FOR: This event is designed for AI builders, researchers, engineers, and entrepreneurs passionate about the future of information retrieval.
- WHAT IT IS ABOUT: SearchHack is a high-intensity challenge focused on building the next layer of AI search, moving beyond simple LLM wrappers to solve complex retrieval and reasoning problems.
- FORMAT: This is a fast-paced, six-hour hackathon featuring rapid prototyping, expert mentorship, and live demonstrations.
Join us in San Francisco for the first stop of the Developer Tool World-Cup: SearchHack. As AI transforms the landscape of information discovery, traditional keyword search and simple LLM integrations are no longer enough. We are bringing together the brightest minds to tackle the most pressing challenges in the field, including fragmented context, expensive retrieval, and the need for intelligent, agentic search systems.
Participants will have four hours to build innovative prototypes that rethink the search stack—ranging from query understanding and intelligent routing to multimodal discovery and knowledge graphs. Whether you are focused on long-context retrieval or building entirely new interfaces for interacting with data, this is your chance to redefine how the world accesses information.
Compete for premium prizes including the iPhone 18 Pro, iPad, and Apple Watch, all while presenting your work to an elite panel of judges from top venture capital firms and leading tech companies like Meta and Salesforce. Show the industry what the next generation of AI search looks like.
