TinyFish $2M Pre-Accelerator Hackathon

TinyFish $2M Pre-Accelerator Hackathon. Build Applications That Do Real Work on the Web

Register on HackerEarth. Sign up on TinyFish to access the API and receive your credits. Ensure you create an account on https://www.tinyfish.ai so you can issue you the credits when approved.

Build your prototype using the API, then submit it on HackerEarth to get a chance to receive the Golden Ticket to the accelerator program and win exciting prizes.

Every AI tool being built today needs live web data. LLM agents, copilots, RAG pipelines, autonomous workflows  all of them hit the same barrier: the web was designed for human eyes, not autonomous agents. It's locked behind dynamic rendering, multi-step workflows, and anti-bot systems. And it's also become far too vast, too complex, and too fast-moving for even humans to keep up with  billions of pages, constantly shifting data, endless forms, and workflows that eat hours of skilled labor every day.

AI agents are the next trillion users of the web autonomous software that does real work on behalf of humans. And TinyFish is the infrastructure that makes it possible.

TinyFish is launching a global hackathon in partnership with HackerEarth to find the boldest builders ready to turn the live web into an executable runtime for AI agents.

This isn't a toy hackathon. This is your gateway to The TinyFish Accelerator, a high-intensity, YC-style virtual accelerator program, backed by a $2M seed pool from Mango Capital.

Here's the deal:

• Build an application powered by the TinyFish Web Agent API that does real work on the web
• Record a raw 2–3 minute demo of your agent doing real work on the live web
• Post it publicly on X (Twitter) tagging @Tiny_fish
• Submit your project on HackerEarth

🏆 Top 3 winners take home cash prizes AND a Golden Ticket — direct entry into Phase 2 (The Sprint) of the TinyFish Accelerator, skipping the application queue entirely and landing in a 2-week intensive sprint alongside the best agent builders in the world.

Why This Hackathon Is Different

🎫 The Golden Ticket

Winners don't just walk away with cash. They receive a Golden Ticket — direct entry into Phase 2: The Sprint of the TinyFish Accelerator, bypassing the entire application and review queue.

What Phase 2 (The Sprint) looks like:

• 2-week intensive with the full accelerator cohort
• Full Partner Stack unlocked — direct engineering support and API access from 15+ partner companies: Google for Startups Cloud Program, v0 by Vercel, ElevenLabs, Fireworks.ai, MongoDB, Daytona, Composio, Dify, Axiom, Alguna, AgentOps, AgentMail, AG2, Superdesign, Creators Corner, Parasail, Yotta Labs, and more.
• Weekly Business Mentorship sessions on challenges of an early stage business with world-class mentors
• Free API keys from TinyFish
• Private engineering Discord with direct access to TinyFish core team

🎯 And Then: Demo Day

Sprint participants advance to Demo Day in April, a studio-grade virtual livestream where you pitch your product directly to Robin Vasan of Mango Capital (lead investor behind HashiCorp, Netlify, and InfluxData) and the TinyFish executive team.

Funding decisions from the $2M seed pool are made immediately. No committees. No months of follow-ups. You deal directly with the decision-maker.
