THE ENTRY POINT
24 hour hackathon on 29.november @StartupHouse Riga.
No hashtags. No panels. You build something that works. Not a pitch deck, not a “vision,” not a promise. If it runs, you have a one-in-fifteen chance to stay and be welcomed in. If it doesn’t, you’ve learned something useful about yourself.
THE PROGRAM
Three months of constructive obsession.
No mentors. No panels. No “business canvas”
Just frameworks, fast code, and sharper people than you. With the aim to have a brutal form of clarity. You’ll move fast enough to question causality.
THE SYSTEM
We provide the unsexy parts.
Cloud credits, API access, legal sanity, investor intros, and the kind of silence that money can’t buy. No slogans. No “AI for good” statements. Just working things, doing work.
THE WAY
Not an accelerator. A closed loop of making, breaking, and rebuilding until something useful crawls out. Fifteen projects. One outcome: output. This is the part where most people drop out. That’s fine. Mediocrity needs somewhere to go.

THE CALL
No promises. No grand “journeys.”
Just a screen, a keyboard, and the goal of making something real.
15 teams go in for three months, build with AI, and come out with working products - reality compiled and shipped.
If you need
motivation,
stay home.
Otherwise,
welcome.
LOCATION
Riga Shipyard PopUp. Cold enough to keep you focused. With aim to ship daily and by design it’s temporary, because permanence is a trap. Nothing here is decorative, including you.
