AI: Push to Prod Hackathon: Building at the Frontier

Anthropic & Elevation Capital are bringing you Push to Prod: Building at the Frontier on August 8, 2026, a part of Basecamp, Bengaluru’s week-long, community-led tech festival running from August 6th to 12th. Push to Prod Hackathon: Building at the Frontier is a one-day, high-energy, in-person hackathon focused on building audacious products from India. ## 🎯 Hackathon Theme Build the Next Audacious When we say audacious, we mean - Build the next frontier capability: A new capability, architecture, or approach that doesn't exist yet, not a repackaging of existing tools. - Build the next billion dollar idea: A product with a believable path to massive scale and value on its own. Not a feature bolted onto an existing workflow. - ⁠Build the product that redefines a category: Something that makes today’s default way of doing a thing look outdated. Not a 20% improvement, a different way of solving the problem entirely. - Build the interface that doesn't exist yet: A new way of interacting with technology: voice, agents that act on your behalf, new input or output modalities. Not another app on a screen. - ⁠Build the infrastructure everyone else will build on: The layer other products and companies will depend on in five years. Not a one-off tool. ## 🤖 Use of Claude Teams are required to build with Anthropic/Claude as a core part of their product, workflow, or intelligence layer. ## ❓ What you can expect? - 5 hours of focused building to turn ideas into live prototypes - Mentorship and guidance from the teams behind Anthropic, Elevation Capital, and ecosystem partners - Access to powerful AI tools to accelerate your build - Exciting prizes and recognition for standout projects - Winners of the hackathon will get an exclusive opportunity to join Office hours with the Elevation Capital team post-event ## 📅 Event Details - Theme: Build the Next Audacious. - Date: 8th August, 2026 - Format: In-person
