About this event
Build what Sells: From Product Thinking to Production-ready App in 2 days
Most hackathons jump straight into coding. We don’t.This is a 2-day, hands-on AI product build sprint where you’ll not only ship a live, production-ready AI app — you’ll also learn structured product thinking frameworks that ensure you’re building the right idea, the right way.
You’ll follow a framework-driven build process that combines product strategy with technical execution:
- Identify the right problem worth solving
- Shape it into a solution people will pay for
- Build it using AI tools like Cursor, Agentic workflows & modern frameworks
- Deploy a production-ready product with DB, authentication, AI agent & usable UI
And you won’t do it alone — you’ll work alongside fellow founders and Product leaders in a collaborative, high-energy environment with ongoing support after the event.
Why It’s Different
- Zero Prior Coding Required – Scaffolded guidance to harness AI as your co-builder and ensure you deploy with speed and quality even if this is your first build.
- Framework-First, Build-While-Learning – Product thinking isn’t an afterthought; it’s integrated into every step. You don’t just hack features; you validate problems, scope solutions, and decide what to do next.
- Live Deployment – Your app isn’t a demo; it’s running in production by the end
- Proof of Work – Show you can deliver, not just ideate and walk away with real assets for your portfolio, pitch or Monday meeting

Frequently asked questions
Founders, PMs, and professionals interested in being AI proficient who want to combine deep product thinking with hands-on AI app building — no prior coding experience required.
Not at all. We provide a tech primer, a scaffolded app setup, and step-by-step AI-assisted build guidance.
Absolutely! Bring your idea or we can help you narrow down use cases to get started. You own your work; you choose what to demo or publish.
By Day 2, your app will be live online with DB, authentication, AI workflows, and usable UI — ready to onboard users. If you do not finish, you still leave with a working base, a decision brief, and support the following week to cross the line.
Hackathons often = code first, no validation. Bootcamps = theory first, no deploy. Afresh = you ship and validate. Every session integrates product thinking, so you leave with a deployed app + decision brief you can use immediately.
You are not left alone. You’ll have access to async mentorship to polish and App and our WhatsApp community network for collaboration and support.
A laptop, pen, paper, your idea or problem statement, and an open mind to learn and have fun!
