Where is the Buildathon happening ?

Hermes by Nous Research is the world's fastest-growing open-source AI agent, with 180,000 GitHub stars in under four months. It's the AI agent powering NVIDIA RTX AI PCs, and the platform you'll build with throughout the Buildathon.

What is Hermes?

Yes. The Buildathon is open to everyone. GrowthX membership is not required.

Can I apply if I'm not a GrowthX member?

Yes. The participation credits are available to every approved builder. Winners receive additional credits and prizes.
