Ayiti AI Hackathon is a 2-day AI coding challenge created for developers in Haiti to imagine, build, and launch powerful technology—fast. Designed by Syntax Studio and Akademi, this initiative goes beyond hacking. It’s about breaking boundaries, claiming space in the global AI revolution, and showcasing the incredible talent right here in Haiti.
This is an event for Haitians, by Haitians, built to nurture and challenge Haiti’s growing developer ecosystem. Over one intense weekend, 10 selected teams will compete in a high-stakes coding challenge. With only 48 hours, you’ll take your idea from concept to deployment—under pressure, with purpose.
We believe the future of AI should not be limited to the world’s biggest labs and tech hubs. Haitian developers deserve access to tools, visibility, and leadership opportunities. That’s why we created Ayiti AI Hackathon: a one-weekend challenge to spark bold ideas, real teamwork, and breakthrough code—under pressure, with purpose.
Through this hackathon, we’re:
Delivering hands-on AI experience with structured training.
Building real AI applications—fast.
Innovating with limited resources and limitless creativity.
This event is open to Haitian developers currently living in Haiti, whether you’re self-taught, university-trained, or somewhere in between. If you’re ready to build fast and think big, this is for you.
Let’s hack. Let’s build. Let’s lead.
