It's time for both technical & non-technical people to join the hackathon & build something real in one afternoon.
On Friday, September 4, 2026, Builder Pub is bringing the first-ever Non-Tech Buildathon to AWS Builder Loft in San Francisco.
This is a free, beginner-friendly AI buildathon for product managers, designers, marketers, developers, founders, investors, students, & anyone curious about building with AI. No coding or AI experience is required, & experienced technical builders are welcome.
LEARN, BUILD, AND SHIP IN ONE AFTERNOON.
IN ADDITION TO REGISTERING ON THIS LUMA PAGE, PLEASE ALSO REGISTER THROUGH THE AWS BUILDER LOFT PORTAL (REQUIRED BY AWS).
How It Works
We'll begin with a short, guided walkthrough showing you how to build with AI. Then you'll spend the afternoon creating a working product or prototype that you can present at the community showcase.
You can build with:
Lovable for creating your product
ElevenLabs for adding voice & audio
Linkup for working with web information
Build a useful personal tool, web app, AI assistant, game, interactive experience, or something completely unexpected.
You bring the problem, the taste, & the decisions. AI helps with the technical implementation. No coding or AI experience is required.
Prizes
Overall Winning Team: Every team member will receive three months of the ElevenLabs Pro plan, valued at $297 per person, with 600,000 credits per month. The winner will also receive $500 worth of Linkup credits.
Best Project Built with ElevenLabs: Every team member will receive three months of the ElevenLabs Scale plan, valued at $897 per person, with 1.8 million credits per month.
More prizes will be announced soon.
