About this hackathon
A two-day, in-person hackathon at the Y Combinator office in San Francisco (Nov 7–8), hosted by Naïve. Pick any business—media, agency, commerce, software—and use the Naïve SDK to build the agent team that runs it: finding customers, delivering the product and handling day-to-day operations. At demo time you show what the agents actually did, and judges look at how much of the company runs without you. Applications are reviewed by Naïve and YC; 1st place gets iPhones for the team and a guaranteed YC interview.

一句话简介：Agent 创业公司 Naïve 在旧金山 YC 总部办的两天线下黑客松，选一门生意，用 Naïve SDK 搭一支 Agent 团队把公司真正跑起来。
看点：媒体、代理服务、电商、软件都行，只要主要由 Agent 来经营（找客户、交付、日常运营）；必须使用 Naïve SDK；Demo 要展示 Agent 实际干成了什么、做了哪些决策、哪里需要人插手，评委看「离了你公司还能跑多少」；设最自治公司、最可能成为独角兽、最佳 Naïve 使用、人气奖等；报名需审核，活动页没写申请截止日，越早申请越好
奖金：第一名每位队员一台 iPhone 18 Pro，保证获得 YC 面试，外加 5 万美元以上赞助商额度；第二名每人一台 Mac mini Pro，第三名每人一台 Mac mini；另有 1.5 万美元以上的专项奖；所有参赛者获 1,000 美元以上额度（以实物和额度为主，现金金额未公布）
截止日期：11月7日开赛（活动页未写申请截止，需审核）（旧金山）
活动日期：11月7日 11:00—11月8日 11:00（太平洋时间），旧金山 YC 办公室
