Hack the UnreachableAn AI research hackathon powered by Flashpoint.AI

People say one thing and do another. Public narratives rarely match private sentiment. The most valuable signals sit with people no survey ever reaches.

Spend a day building AI that closes that gap. Use Flashpoint.AI’s research platform and Anthropic’s models to build agents that uncover what people actually think and turn it into something useful.

Tracks

Governance: Agents that surface constituent preferences and find policies people can agree on

Economic Signals: Hyperlocal sentiment and economic research

Self-Improving AI: Models that identify what they don’t know and go get it from the right people

News & Reporting: Agents that research, verify, and report

Investment Alpha: Find the gap between what’s priced in and what key segments privately believe

Prizes: $800 total🥇 1st Place: $500🥈 2nd Place: $200🥉 3rd Place: $100
