Speech to Ship Hackathon: Speak It, Build It, Ship It

Speak it. Build it. Ground it. Ship it. Theme Speech to Ship is a one-day, in-person hackathon at Emergent HQ in San Francisco, hosted by Willow, Emergent and You.com. You'll build a real app using only your voice: speak it with Willow, build and ship it with Emergent, and make it smart and local with You.com's real-time web search. The twist: you don't pick the idea, the draw does. At kickoff, every builder draws a city, a business and a customer. Draw Seoul x skincare shop x tourists, and you might build a K-beauty advisor that knows what's trending in Seoul this week. No time lost deciding what to build. You start building right away.
