About Tensor Hack
Tensor Hack is a human-curated index of high-value hackathons and a jobs board for builders. Every hackathon is read by a person and published only with a hard deadline and a verified prize, from $1,000 to $2,000,000. No pay-to-list, no pitch nights, no spam.
Read by a human. Updated daily.
Who builds it
Tensor Hack is built by Tensor Boy (Manav Gupta), an AI and tech creator and founder who writes Tensor Protocol, a newsletter read by tens of thousands of builders. It exists because finding hackathons that are actually worth your weekend is harder than it should be.
How we verify (editorial standards)
New hackathons are sourced daily from Devpost, MLH, Devfolio, Unstop, DoraHacks, ETHGlobal, Hack Club and more, then filtered to a quality bar: a verified prize of at least $1,000, or a marquee host such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, YC, Solana or ETHGlobal. A human reviews every listing before it goes live.
We reject pitch competitions disguised as hackathons, pay-to-enter events, and listings with unverifiable prizes. Organizers cannot pay to be listed or ranked. Sponsored or featured slots, when they exist, are always clearly labeled and never displace a human-picked listing.
What is inside
The wall is every live hackathon, filterable by AI, GenAI and LLM, web3, India, online, prize money and closing soon. The jobs board lists curated AI and ML roles pulled from official company boards, with no ghost listings. Organizers can submit a hackathon for review.
Our promise
Free and open. Every listing stays readable to everyone, no gate. Verified prizes only. No pay-to-list. The business is the newsletter we grow and the sponsors who pay to reach builders, never a paywall on the listings.
