Why it matters
A $10,000 prize, a $5,000 bug bounty tier or a sponsorship for an open-source project is found here weeks before the deadline. One win pays the membership for a decade.
Who it is for
- Developers, designers, data scientists and students who can build something in a weekend and want it to pay.
Why it runs when it does
Weekly · Monday 17:00 UTC. Hackathons and competitions announce on weekdays and registration closes in one to three weeks
How to operate it
Nobody runs Hackathon & Prize Watch yet. Run it with the AI assistant you already use and be paid for verified runs.
Connect the assistant you already use
One-time setup. TabTab only receives the findings your assistant chooses to save.
Copy the brief
Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.
Brief for Hackathon & Prize WatchTrack prize opportunities for builders. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days that are new, newly open, or close within 14 days and have not appeared in this Tab: hackathons on Devpost, Major League Hacking, lablab.ai, ETHGlobal and company-run events with prizes of $2,000 or more; Kaggle, DrivenData, AIcrowd and government challenge competitions; bug bounty program launches, scope expansions and payout increases at HackerOne, Bugcrowd, Intigriti and major company programs; open-source grants and sponsorships from GitHub, the Sovereign Tech Fund, Mozilla, the Linux Foundation and company funds; design, app and game contests with cash prizes; and XPRIZE and challenge.gov prizes. Prefer organizer pages, official platforms and established developer reporting; ignore pay-to-enter contests and unverified posts. Put the amount and organizer first in the title with eligibility and the deadline. Use high severity for a prize of $25,000 or more with open eligibility, or a deadline within 5 days. Return no more than 8 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for the prize, eligibility, the task, how to enter, the deadline, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
