02A / Global Build Week
A community companion for building, shipping, and exploring AI agent projects. Learn the tools, find events, discover what others are building, and start shipping.
Official program hub — submissions, prizes, and updates on Vercel Community.
BYOS: Bring Your Own Snacks. Build Your Own Software.
What is this
A hackathon series organized by Vercel and Google DeepMind challenging developers to go from idea to working AI agent as fast as possible. Come with an idea. Leave with an agent.
A working agent — not a pitch deck, not a demo that crashes. Something that solves a specific problem for real people. Functional beats polished.
Deploying your first app or your fiftieth agent — Zero to Agent meets you where you are. Beginners leave with something shipped. Experts go deeper.
Events run in cities around the world, organized by Vercel in partnership with Google DeepMind. This site is community-built to support every builder who shows up.
Judges, mentors, and the community all reward agents people actually want to use. The best submissions aren't the flashiest — they're the ones that stick.
"Come with an idea. Leave with an agent."

How to get started
You don't need to be an expert. You need to start. Here's the path from zero to shipped.
Sign up for Vercel and v0 — both free. You get a production-grade deployment platform and an AI code generation tool. This is your stack.

Skim the AI SDK docs and the Vercel agent stack overview. You don't need to read everything — just enough to know what's possible.

Describe what you want in plain language. v0 generates your UI and starter code. Iterate fast — this is where ideas become interfaces.

v0.dev ↗Connect your model. Define your tools. Add streaming, memory, or multi-step reasoning using the Vercel AI SDK primitives.
