Ten battles across the USA. Twelve planned episodes following the builders
chasing a championship—and the creation of a new competitive league.
The athletes competing. The fans following every breakthrough.
Reach potential customers on both sides of the competition.
THE ATHLETES · YOUR BUYERSCompeting builders are potential customers, founders, and technical decision-makers. They use your tools under pressure and experience their value firsthand. Turn that experience into product adoption, startup-program relationships, and future customers.
THE FANS · YOUR BUYERSThe fans include developers, founders, and teams choosing what to build with next. They see your technology in action through the competition and the series. Give them a reason to try it, bring it to their teams, and become customers.
*Organizer-reported event averages. RSVPs are registrations, not attendance or unique season reach. Dates and the tenth stop are being finalized.
Choose your place in the stack. Then choose your season.
Category exclusivity removes competing sponsors from the series.
One exclusive season partner, or up to five supporting partners. Never both in the same category.
Proposed category framework. Category boundaries and availability are confirmed in the partnership conversation. When a build needs an exclusive category, teams use its official provider. Teams are not required to use every category. Without an exclusive partner, builders choose their tools.

Put your name on a chapter of the story.
An exclusive season partner is the only sponsor in its agreed category. No supporting or competing sponsors are included in that category. When a project needs that category, the team uses its official provider. Teams do not have to use every sponsored category. In categories without an exclusive partner, builders choose their tools. Category boundaries and existing commitments are confirmed before signing.
Registrants opt in to contact sharing and sponsor communications, either directly or through AI Collective. The specific data fields, transfer process, and communication scope are documented in the partnership agreement.
Exclusive partners can publish approved post-produced content under agreed terms and applicable distributor permissions. Reuse does not transfer ownership. Supporting-partner reuse rights remain to be confirmed.
Every exclusive partner receives one named episode on AIC-owned releases in the planned 12-episode series: an opener, ten battles, and a closer. Episode allocation and title treatment are agreed with each partner. Partner team interviews are also included in the series. Naming on third-party streaming releases is subject to distributor approval.
Episodes are planned for release after the competition season. Corporate sponsorship is the primary production funding plan. AIC channels, YouTube, independent production options, and third-party distribution are possible release paths; no Netflix, Amazon, or other streaming deal is confirmed. AIC-owned episode naming is included; third-party placement and credits are not guaranteed.
Exclusive partners can participate on the judging panel. Each event is planned to have 5–10 judges evaluating competitors against the same rubric. The number of seats and event allocation are agreed before signing; participation does not guarantee a seat at every event.
Agree a reporting plan covering registrations, attendance, participating builders, delivered placements, and available broadcast and content metrics. Product activation and usage measurement depend on partner instrumentation. Reach and product outcomes are not guaranteed.
Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Austin, Miami, New York, Boston, and Washington, DC. The tenth stop, dates, and venues are to be confirmed.
