The era of renting intelligence is over. Why pay per token? Why wait for latency? Why hand your user's data to a massive corporation? We are entering the Local AI Revolution. We are challenging YOU to ideate the mobile app of the future, one that runs powerful Small Language Models (SLMs) like DeepSeek R1, Llama 3, and Whisper directly on the device. No Internet. No Fees. No Spying. This is a pure Ideathon. You do not need to submit a compiled app. We want your vision. Using the architectural blueprints of the RunAnywhere SDK (the YC-backed standard for local AI), show us a mobile experience that is impossible on the cloud. We are looking for ideas in 3 core areas:
🔒 True Privacy: Apps where user data is too sensitive to ever leave the device (Health, Finance, Journals).
📵 The "Offline" Edge: Tools for remote areas, subways, or disaster zones where the internet is dead.
âš¡ Zero Latency: Voice assistants and agents that react instantly because they live on the chip, not the server.
🚀 Backed by Y-Combinator Founders: This event is supported by the team at RunAnywhere (YC W26). Top submissions don't just win cash; you get direct feedback and "Office Hours" with founders who are building the future of edge computing.
🎫 The Golden Ticket: The most visionary ideas will secure a Direct Entry slot into our upcoming Global On-Device Hackathon, bypassing the massive waiting list.
💰 $150 Prize Pool: Cash awards for the top 3 innovative concepts.
🧠Master the New Stack: Learn how to architect apps using DeepSeek, Whisper, and Llama on a standard mobile device.
