What to Build

Build an AI-powered app that helps humanity flourish. Your project should tackle one of three tracks:

🏥 Track 1: Health & Wellbeing Healthcare is expensive, inaccessible, and confusing — and mental health support is even more so. Medical knowledge is locked behind jargon and paywalls. Billions lack quality care. Build something that changes that. Examples: diagnostic aids for underserved clinics, medication reminders, patient triage tools, accessibility tools, stress & burnout prevention, support for neurodivergent individuals

🎓 Track 2: Campus Intelligence & Equity A student's zip code, income, or background shouldn't determine their future. Campuses are full of disconnected systems and hidden resources that never reach the people who need them most. Build an AI-powered tool that makes campus life smarter and more equitable. Examples: adaptive tutoring, first-gen financial aid & scholarship navigation, interview & resume prep for non-traditional backgrounds, financial literacy tools

🗳️ Track 3: Governance & Accessibility Democracy is struggling. People feel unheard, divided, and too confused to participate. Communities can't work together on the problems that affect them most. Build something that brings people back in. Examples: policy explanation tools, legislative transparency, nonpartisan voter education, community deliberation platforms, conflict mediation

What to Submit

Submit your project on Devpost before the deadline with the following:

• Project name & tagline
• Track (Health & Wellbeing, Campus Intelligence & Equity, or Governance & Accessibility)
• Demo video showing your working prototype (optional)
• GitHub repo link
• A short writeup covering:
  • Who you built this for and why they need it
  • How you used Claude / AI in your project
  • What could go wrong and how you addressed it
  • What you'd build next if you had more time

⏰ Allow yourself extra time before the deadline — last-minute upload issues are common!
