MiniMax $150,000 Challenge — World's First Full-Stack AI Agent Challenge

If you’ve ever thought, “I could build something incredible with AI” — this is your moment.
Push the limits of what AI Agents can do in productivity, creativity, education, entertainment — or invent an entirely new frontier.
Aug 11–25, we’re calling on developers, innovators, and AI tinkerers worldwide to join the MiniMax AI Agent Challenge — with $150,000 in prizes up for grabs.
All you need: your boldest idea and MiniMax Agent, built to handle long-horizon, complex tasks. Build from scratch or remix existing ideas — either way, MiniMax Agent is your ultimate creative partner. Register/Submit: https://minimax-agent-hackathon.space.minimax.io/Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Register to the Hackathon
Visit https://minimax-agent-hackathon.space.minimax.io/ and complete your registration with MiniMax Agent UID.
Step 2: Get Your Credits
Once registered, you’ll receive 5,000 credits on your MiniMax Agent account to build your project. This usually takes around 3 hours — if you haven’t received them within 24 hours, feel free to contact us.
Step 3: Build & Share
Start building with MiniMax Agent. When your project is ready, share it to our Gallery, social media, and upload at least a 30-second demo video to X or YouTube to boost visibility. Not sure what to build? Remixing existing projects is totally allowed — and encouraged!
Step 4: Promote your project!
The more attention it gets, the higher your chances of winning a share of the $150,000 cash prize.
