What to look forward to

Teams of 2–4 will build trusted financial agents for trading, payments, compliance, or finance operations, then present their projects to judges including AWS tech lead Pradeep Dhananjaya. The one-day hackathon will provide compute credits and food, with applicants requiring approval to attend.

From the organizer

Inside the event

Money never sleeps. Neither do agents.

Right now, a human still approves every trade, every payment, every flagged account. How much longer can finance work that way?

Agents can already execute. The big concern is trust. Give an agent too little authority and it’s useless. Give it too much and it’s dangerous. Getting that balance right is the whole game.

We’re looking for agents bold enough to act and safe enough to trust.

What you can build for

  • 📈 Markets & Trading: research, strategies, and prediction markets
  • 💸 Agentic Payments: moving money safely, within limits
  • 🕵️ Compliance & Financial Crime: catching fraud and managing risk
  • 🧾 Finance Ops: automating invoicing, collections, and treasury

We bring the venue, the compute credits, and the food. You bring the idea.

Judges

Pradeep Dhananjaya - Tech lead @ AWS

Who is it for?
