Projects built on the You.com platform at hackathons, with winners called out for each event. The 2026 Bay Area Edition lists every qualifying submission; earlier events list their published winners. Where it was recorded, each entry credits its builder and notes the You.com APIs used — Search, Contents, Research, Finance Research, MCP, Plugins/Skills, or the SDKs. Start building with the You.com API docs.
Official You.com Agentic Hackathon, July 24, 2026 at the AWS Builder Loft, San Francisco. Every submission that used a You.com API is listed, grouped by track. Third place was a tie. Entries link a public repository where there is one, otherwise a demo.
