Private Competition — Summer 2026
Part One
A mobile-first artifact exploring the relationship of two things that seem unrelated — a non-obvious connection, contrast, or idea that otherwise relates the two.
Part Two
A mobile-friendly coded interactive. Useful, playful, aesthetic, strange, clever, or beautifully niche — the concept is yours. But it must actually do something with what the user gives it.
These are examples, not limits.
Standard: It should feel like a real small product — clear, intentional, responsive. Different inputs must produce meaningfully different results.
The Rules
Two parts. Both required. Judging is anonymous — judges won’t know whose submission is whose, and won’t know which Artifact goes with which Interactive. Each part is scored independently.
Every participant must submit both a Part 01 Insight Artifact and a Part 02 Coded Interactive. Submitting only one part does not constitute a valid entry. Both deliverables must individually satisfy their respective requirements.

Any LLM you already have access to. You may also research and choose a subscription — no separate tools budget.
Part of the challenge is choosing and using tools well. Fully doable with ChatGPT, Claude, Kimi, or related coding agents.
Anonymous — judges won't know who made what. Parts are judged independently.
Work is judged on the spec, not effort. Runner-up placements must be earned.
*Runner-up must fully satisfy requirements to place
