The future of consumer AI won’t be built in theory — it will be built hands-on, in real time, by founders solving real product challenges.

Consumer AI Buildathon is an exclusive co-building experience designed for early-stage founders and teams actively building consumer AI products. Hosted by Elevation Capital and supported by Google & OpenAI, this one-day intensive gathering brings together some of the brightest AI builders, senior engineers, and startup operators under one roof.

Unlike traditional hackathons, this is not a competition. There are no judges, pitch decks, or demo theatrics. Instead, founders work directly alongside engineers from Google and OpenAI to tackle the hardest technical and product problems in consumer AI today.

Participants will dive deep into challenges including:
• AI personality & voice consistency
• Memory and personalization systems
• Multimodal AI experiences across text, voice, video & chat
• Cost optimization, latency, and scalable inference

Attendees will gain:
• Direct mentorship from senior AI engineers
• Live office hours and technical problem-solving sessions
• Access to Google Gemini & OpenAI API credits
• Networking with top founders, operators, and investors
• A curated builder community for continued collaboration beyond the event

Whether you're building AI companions, creator tools, social AI products, productivity apps, or multimodal consumer experiences — this Buildathon is designed to help ambitious teams move faster, solve deeper challenges, and build meaningful AI products with world-class guidance.
