How to Apply for Hacksocial 2026 — Social Good Hackathon, $2,500 (₹2.3L) Prize Pool

There is no screening round or shortlisting stage here — this is a build-and-submit competition, judged on the finished project.

• Register on Devpost to enter Hacksocial 2026.
• Build during August 1–31, 2026, at whatever pace suits your team, on a social-good problem you choose yourself.
• Submit before August 31, 2026 — that date is both the final day of the event and the project deadline.
• Judging weighs four things: innovation, impact, technical execution, and alignment with the social-good theme.
• Because the event is fully online with no physical venue, evaluation is carried out remotely.
