Last week, we ran our first internal AI hackathon and built a few agents.
Each team chose a task they were tired of doing and built an agent to handle it.
One team created an agent to coordinate our open-source work across Slack, GitHub, and Jira, keeping track of each project's status. Another team built a CV screener that reviews portfolios and GitHub profiles before sending the decision to a person. A third team made a tool that turns meeting transcripts and Slack threads into action points in Notion, with an approval step.
Two things came out of the day.
We ended up with three MVPs that are ready for daily use. We also got real feedback on Atlas, our AI Toolkit for governed AI engineering, and have already used it to make improvements.
This was the type of day engineers value: solving real problems through focused work, resulting in three practical tools and an improved product. Can't wait to run this event again!
