Grand Prize: Build AI Applications & Agents using Microsoft AI Platform and Tools — AI Dev Days Hackathon 2026

Quipu

Built so that municipal offices in Peru can see a disaster coming while there is still time. Seven AI agents cooperate, scanning in real time for earthquakes, floods, fires, unusual weather and news coverage, and pushing an automatic alert to local officials before conditions escalate.

Why It Won — our reading

A grand prize here is hard to separate from the weight of the domain. In disaster response a delay converts directly into harm, so noticing early carries value on its own. Splitting five very different kinds of signal, seismic, flood, fire, weather and media, across seven agents widens what can be watched while keeping each role easy to explain on stage. Naming a specific recipient, municipal offices in Peru, gives the work a concreteness that travels well with judges.

This is our own analysis based on the official announcement and the project's own materials. It is not the organizer's stated reasoning.

PRism

AI Dev Days Hackathon
A multi-agent release gate that asks a different question: what could this pull request break in the real world? Rather than stacking up pass/fail checks, it evaluates the change in a production-like context and returns a deployment confidence score from 0 to 100, together with a risk brief written in plain English.
2026A
Best Multi-Agent System

ASTRA

AI Dev Days Hackathon
A multi-agent system for e-commerce sellers whose catalogues are too large to watch by hand. It keeps an eye on competing marketplaces, recommends repricing moves and can apply them automatically. What it targets is the margin that quietly bleeds away while pricing and risk decisions lag behind what the market is already doing.
2026M
Best Enterprise Solution

Meister ProPR

AI Dev Days Hackathon
An AI code review extension that lives inside the Azure DevOps pull request flow. It reads each change automatically and flags security risks along with policy and compliance gaps, and it does so early, while the branch is still open, so developers deal with the findings before the merge rather than after it.
2026N
Best Azure Integration

NimbusIQ

AI Dev Days Hackathon
Shows a team what is really running across their Azure estate and what deserves attention first. It keeps discovering resources, scores them against architectural and operational best practice, and then proposes concrete next steps aimed at reliability and cost.
