Hackathon Footprints
Beyond registrations and attendance: real projects, open source contributions, and developer adoption that continues after the hackathon. Here's what the outcome looks like.
01 / Global Reach
Builders in 40 countries, and everywhere online
From San Francisco to Bangalore, Berlin to Kolkata. We run events on the ground in 11 cities and online for builders across 40 countries, so your product reaches the room, and everywhere the room isn't.
02 / Open Source Engagement
Engagement, not vanity metrics
These aren't vanity metrics. They're thousands of engineers actually using your projects: giving feedback, building on top of them, and contributing back. Most of it lands inside the event week itself, while the docs are still open in a tab.
03 / Contributions
Contributions, not just clicks
A star takes one click. A pull request takes hours of actually building with your product. Across our open-source hackathons, builders don't just star the repo; they file issues, fix bugs and ship merged PRs back into it. 400+ pull requests merged into partner repos to date.
04 / The New GTM
Hackathons are the new GTM pipeline
Enterprise go-to-market spends a quarter to get a handful of engineers to open your docs. A hackathon does it in a week: hundreds of builders reading those docs on day one, calling your API by day three, and pushing public repos with your product in the stack by day seven. Same week your competitors are still waiting on a security review.
- Week 1Cold outreach, intro calls, a demo
- Week 4Security review and procurement
- Week 12A pilot team finally opens the docs
- Day 1Builders register, docs open in a tab
- Day 3First integrations calling your API
- Day 7Projects ship, repos go public
05 / Funding Raised
Actual metrics leadership cares about, nothing vanity
Stars and signups are the top of the funnel. Funding is the number your leadership actually reports on. Companies that ran a hackathon with us went on to close real rounds: Coral, Portia, Archestra and Kestra raised a combined $46M+ after working with us. That's the outcome that survives the quarterly review.
- Kestra$25M
- Archestra$10M
- Portia$6M
- Coral$5M
