$100,000 AIE Startup Battlefield — presented by Hyperagent

Official Schedule Context

Twenty AI startup founders take the floor at Moscone West for a science fair-style demo gauntlet

(10:45 AM–1 PM), where judges and attendees circulate freely and ask the tough questions. Three

finalists earn a spot on the main stage at 5:25 PM to pitch live in front of our full audience — and

walk away with a share of $100,000 in prizes ($50K / $30K / $20K), awarded by Howie Liu and the

Hyperagent team! Builders come from across the AI application stack — from agentic workflows and AI

sports tech to social tools and data infrastructure — all competing for the judges' vote and your

vote for People's Choice! Don't miss Howie Liu on stage at 5:10 PM, followed immediately by the

finals and the winner announcement. 🏆
