What Problem Hackathon.com Solves for Companies

Running a successful hackathon is not as simple as opening registrations and hoping for good ideas. Internal teams often underestimate the complexity and overestimate their available time.

Common challenges we see include:

  • Poor participation or low quality submissions
  • Logistical issues with judging, prizes, and compliance
  • Difficulty scaling events across regions or time zones
  • No clear way to measure ROI or outcomes

Hackathon.com exists to remove that friction.

Our mission is simple: Simplify event planning, engage top talent, and drive real innovation.
