HackBLR (MLH HackDays)^(BLR)

HackBLR 2026 is a national-level AI hackathon for developers, AI engineers, founders and builders who want to turn bold ideas into working AI-powered products.

The themes are AI agents, voice AI, LLM applications and real-world AI systems. Participants build impactful solutions with modern AI tooling and fast development workflows.

It runs in two stages: a large online round first, after which the top teams qualify for the offline grand finale in Bengaluru to build and demo production-ready AI apps in front of industry experts and founders.

Builders travelled in from Delhi, Punjab, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai and Bengaluru, with tracks across fintech, healthcare, legal, developer tools and voice AI. Partners included Qdrant, Vapi, TRAE, MiniMax, Bump.fm, Plaksha University and HiDevs.
