Examples
Built with Remy
A look at what the MindStudio team has shipped using Remy. Your submission could be next.
What we're looking for
Real Products. Not Demos.
We want full-stack apps with creative, powerful use cases — products people would actually use and pay for.
Full-stack software
Real applications with a backend, database, and a front end that works — not prototypes or mockups.
Creative, powerful use cases
Solve a real problem for real people. The best submissions will feel like products, not projects.
Not AI agents or chatbots
This hackathon is not for agent wrappers or conversational interfaces. We want apps — the kind people open, use, and pay for.
Build real use cases. For real users.
SaaS product.
Consumer tool.
Platform.
Marketplace.

Spots are limited. We review every application and will let you know if you're in before May 1.
Common questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Remy is built for people with ideas — not just developers. You write a spec describing what your app does, and Remy compiles it into a full-stack application. If you can explain what you want to build, you can build it.
Is it free to enter?
Yes, participation is completely free.
How do I get started?
Register for the hackathon and we'll email you all the details once your registration is approved.
What can I build?
Full-stack apps with creative, powerful use cases — real applications with a backend, database, and a front end that works. Not agent wrappers or chatbots. Software people would actually open, use, and pay for.
When is the submission deadline?
End of day May 3, 2026 (Pacific Time). Late submissions will not be considered.
How are winners selected?
Submissions are evaluated on creativity, completeness of the application, and how well the project demonstrates Remy's capabilities. Winners will be notified by email.
