MeDo Vibe Coding AI Hackathon: Silicon Valley

Ship It: Build & Launch Your App in One Afternoon
You have the idea. Now it's time to build.
Ship It is a one-day hackathon for builders of all backgrounds — product managers, designers, developers, and founders — who want to go from idea to working app in a single afternoon using Medo, the AI-powered builder that turns your vision into a full-stack product.
Whether you code or not, if you can describe what you want to build, you can ship it.
🛠 What happens on the day
You'll join a room full of builders who think like you do — product-minded, user-obsessed, and ready to turn ideas into reality. In the team, you'll pick a real problem, describe your app to Medo, and ship a working version before the session ends.
Mentors will be circulating to help you scope your idea, sharpen your prompts, and push your build further than you thought possible in the time you have.
🏆 At the end, teams demo their apps live. The community votes. Winners take prizes — and more importantly, you leave with something real you built yourself.
🎯 Perfect for you if...
You're a PM who's tired of writing specs and waiting for sprints
You're a designer who wants to see your flows come to life instantly
You're a developer who wants to prototype faster without boilerplate
You're a founder with an idea ready to test in the real world
You want to build but don't want to wrestle with complex setup
