At a glance
- Our most popular format: from idea to working prototype in one working day
- 8 hours including framing the challenge, AI ideation, a build sprint and an internal pitch
- Across our hackathons, 87% of teams have a working prototype within 48 hours
- 15 to 50 participants. On-site. From DKK 25,000.
One-day AI hackathon
Eight hours. From a blank whiteboard to something that actually runs. It is our most booked format for a reason: one day is just enough to push a problem from idea to demo without losing focus.
The aim is a working prototype before the day is over. This is not a conference day with slides. It is a day for building, facilitated in English or Danish.
No technical background needed. Our facilitators get you started with the AI tools, and you build with no-code tools such as n8n and Claude.

The programme, hour by hour
Teams arrive. Informal networking.
The facilitator sets the scene. The business owners present the challenges. Teams are formed.
Intensive idea generation with ChatGPT and Claude as sparring partners. Reverse brainstorming, SCAMPER and prioritisation down to one idea per team.
Teams carry on the conversation informally. The ideas start to take shape.
Three and a half hours of focused building. Teams work with no-code AI tools such as n8n and Claude. Our facilitators are on hand all day and help you move on when something gets stuck.
Teams stop building and prepare a 5-minute pitch with a live demo. The facilitator helps with the structure.
Every team pitches. An internal jury evaluates and picks a winner. Everyone gets a round of applause, because everyone has achieved something.
The facilitator sums up the next steps for each project. What will it take to put it into use?
What you take away
Working prototypes
The aim is a prototype ready to demo by the end of the day: not a concept paper, but software that actually runs.
An implementation plan for each prototype
For every project we agree what it takes to go from prototype to everyday use. Who owns it? When will it happen?
An estimate of the business value
The facilitator helps each team estimate the time saved and the business value of their solution.
A team that can use AI from day one
Every participant gets hands-on experience with the key AI prototyping tools and can start using them the next day.
A good fit if...
- Companies that want something that runs, not just a list of ideas
- Teams of 15 to 50 people with a concrete business problem
- Organisations trying AI-driven innovation for the first time
- HR and learning and development teams that want to give people real AI experience
- Departments with a well-defined challenge and a budget to solve it
Perhaps not right if...
- Groups of more than 50 participants. See our two-day AI hackathon
- Organisations that only want to generate and prioritise ideas. See the half-day AI hackathon
Tip: Short on time, or want to try the format before you commit? Take a look at our half-day AI hackathon (4 hours).
