AI Commerce Gallery - ZooWork AI Valley
What does the next generation of AI-powered commerce look like?
ZooWork & AI Valley are bringing together builders, founders, engineers, designers, & commerce leaders for AI Commerce Gallery - a curated one-day hackathon & interactive showcase for products pushing commerce forward.
On October 3rd, AI Commerce Gallery takes over The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco for a full day of building, demos, & exploration.
Teams will build throughout the day in the Diane Disney Miller Exhibition Hall before the evening program moves into the Main Museum, with presentations in the Theater & Lower Lobby & private access to the Museum's Main Galleries from 6-8 PM.
Teams will build AI-powered products across:
E-commerce & storefront experiences
Merchant operations, inventory, fulfillment & payments
Restaurants, retail, POS & physical commerce
AI agents, MCP integrations & workflow automation
But this isn't a traditional hackathon.
Instead of spending the evening watching dozens of back-to-back pitches, every team will turn their project into an exhibit for the AI Commerce Gallery Walk.
After the Gallery Walk, the evening moves into the Main Museum for featured demos, awards, networking, & two hours to explore The Walt Disney Family Museum's Main Galleries.
Attendees, judges, partners, & investors will move through the gallery, interact with live demos, meet the builders, & experience what the future of commerce could actually feel like.
Throughout the day, builders will have access to AI tools, APIs, integrations, technical workshops, mentors, & partner resources to help turn ideas into working products.
The strongest projects will be selected as Featured Exhibits & invited to demo on the main stage before the Gallery Awards.
Awards include
