Production Support

Most hackathons end with a demo and a trophy. Since AI projects become production systems. We provide 8+ weeks of post-hackathon support to help companies deploy winning AI projects.

This is what makes Since AI fundamentally different from every other hackathon organizer: we don't walk away after the event. We stay with you until the solution is running in production.

Production Deployment Examples

Maritime Sound Signal Detection (Kongsberg)

Built in 72 hours during the hackathon. After 8 weeks of production support including architecture review and deployment guidance, the system was deployed to actual vessel systems for real-time maritime safety monitoring.

For Builders: Real Portfolio

Build systems that companies actually use in production. When you interview, you can say "I built a system that's deployed at Kongsberg" or "My project handles real queries at Sandvik" — not just "I built a weekend project."

That's the difference between a hackathon project and a production deployment on your resume.
