About the Hackathon

Three tracks. Built with Daimon. Analyse a company's data, publish a data story, or land a pull request in the PyMC libraries. Part of #AIWeekNY in New York City.

A one-day hackathon built around Daimon, the data science agent from PyMC Labs. Saturday, October 10, 2026, 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM at 307 West 38th Street, New York. Part of #AIWeekNY by Pulse NYC.Pick a track, form a team of 4–6, and build it with Daimon. Every participant gets $25 in Daimon credit.Track 01 · Data AnalysisA fictional company's data warehouse: realistic tables plus call recordings. Use Daimon and the PyMC libraries to analyse it, build predictive models, and present the results.Track 02 · Data JournalismGather public data — SEC filings, government datasets, open APIs — analyse it with Daimon, and publish a blog post about what you found, with a link back to PyMC Labs. Use downloadable sources; scraping is unreliable.Track 03 · Benchmarks & FeaturesDig into the PyMC libraries and their code and data-analysis benchmark. Find a feature to add or an evaluation to improve, build it with Daimon, and open a pull request. A merged PR wins the track.Tracks 01 and 02 do not require code. Daimon writes and runs it; you decide what to ask and check the results. Track 03 needs someone comfortable with the PyMC codebase.Schedule11:00–11:30 AM · Doors open · Registration · Team formation · Coffee11:30 AM–12:00 PM · Briefing: AI for data science · Unveiling Daimon's new capabilities · Track reveal12:00–1:30 PM · Building session1:30 PM · Submissions close on Devpost — no extensions1:30–2:30 PM · Lunch (pizza provided) · Judges preview — science fair2:30–3:30 PM · Demos · Results · Closing notes · Networking4:00 PM · Event concludesFull brief, rules, and FAQ:https://oct-hackathon-landing.pages.dev/
