About Fetch.ai

Fetch.ai’s vision is to create a marketplace of dynamic applications. We are empowering developers to build on our platform, which can connect services and APIs without any domain knowledge. Our infrastructure enables ‘search and discovery’ and ‘dynamic connectivity’. It offers an open, modular, UI agnostic, self-assembling of services.

Our technology is built on four key components:

• Agents – AI Agents are independent decision-makers who connect to the network and other agents. These agents can represent data, APIs, services, ML models and people.
• Agentverse – serves as a development and hosting platform for these agents.
• AI Engine – enables humans to interact with the dynamic agent marketplace using natural language to execute the objective.
• Fetch Network – underpins the entire system, ensuring smooth operation and integration.

What is agent technology? 

Fetch.ai is developing a platform to enable the development of an AI-empowered decentralized digital economy. Agents are programs that can make choices on their own for individuals, companies, and devices. Agents are the actors and the heart of the Fetch.ai’s ecosystem.

Agents are flexible problem solvers, capable of not just completing tasks but also tackling difficult issues across several domains. Agents have the adaptability to handle different activities inside the decentralized economy, whether it’s improving supply chain logistics, maintaining solid record-keeping systems, executing computational tasks, or enabling buying and selling interactions. They might even book a hotel room for you.

We couple agents with AI-Engine, the AI system that understands human input and turns that into actionable events empowered by agents in the network. AI-engine is an intelligence system which creates dynamic agent workflows. Agentverse offers cheap agent hosting, and the Fetch Network provides an open layer of trust.

Hackathon details

During the hackathon, participants will be tasked with building their own AI application with Fetch.ai’s uAgents. The best three teams will be awarded prizes.

To get hackers better acquainted with the Fetch.ai technology, all participants will be invited to join for an online technical workshop one week before the hackathon. Two additional workshops shall be presented during the hackathon. 

Please note that real industry challenges will be provided near the deadline.
