Hackathon management platform

Run your hackathon on software built for it.

Registration, teams, mentors, judging, results and certificates — one platform instead of six spreadsheets and a group chat. Organisers, judges, mentors, participants and volunteers each work in their own view of the same event.

Used at AZCON Future Tech 2026 and at Holberton School Azerbaijan

Why HackOS

A hackathon should not run on six spreadsheets and a group chat. We built one system where registration, teams, judging and results know about each other, every role sees only what it needs, and the event keeps its own clock.

Modules

Everything the event needs, in one system

Each part knows what phase the event is in and what the others are doing. Your plan switches modules on — nothing is bolted on.

01

Registration and approval

A public event page with your own form fields, file uploads, a capacity and a waiting list. Approve people one by one or in bulk.

02

Teams

Join codes and invitations, size limits, a looking-for-team pool with suggestions, and organiser assignment for anyone left out.

03

Submissions

Files and links per team with an enforced deadline, and a GitHub check that flags repositories created before the event.

04

Judging

Weighted criteria, assignment modes, conflict-of-interest declarations, blind scoring, a presenter timer and elimination rounds.

05

Results and certificates

Publish results with the visibility you choose, then send PDF certificates anyone can verify by their code.

06

Communication

Announcements by e-mail and Telegram, an event chat with moderation, a mentor help queue and a notification bell for everyone.

The workspace

One console for the whole programme

Participants, teams, submissions, judging, the help queue and analytics in one place, with search and a command palette so nothing is more than a few keys away.

  • Command palette (⌘K) across the console
  • Live dashboard: registrations, help requests, judging progress
  • Role-based access, enforced on the server
  • CSV export and the whole event as a ZIP archive

Access

Five roles, one event, separate doors

Each role gets its own interface and its own permissions, enforced on the server. A judge cannot open the organiser dashboard, a mentor sees only the teams in their event, a participant sees only their own team.

  • OrganiserRuns the event end to end and sees everything.
  • JudgeTheir assigned projects and the scoring sheet.
  • MentorThe help queue and the teams they support.
  • ParticipantTheir team, their submission, the announcements.
  • VolunteerThe task list assigned to them.

Talk to us

Prices exclude VAT. Every order comes with an invoice.

  • Order a plan and we confirm it; the setup link arrives by e-mail. Creating an event in the builder takes one sitting, and its public page and registration form are ready to share as soon as you publish.

  • The whole interface is in Azerbaijani, English and Russian, switchable by each person. E-mails to participants go out in the event's language.

  • No. Everything runs in the browser, on a phone as well as a laptop. Telegram is optional.

  • Once the event is over it is archived (automatically, 14 days after its end): everything stays readable and nothing can be changed. You can download the whole event as a ZIP — CSV files plus uploads — at any time.

  • Every organisation's data is kept apart, and every role is checked on the server, not just hidden in the interface. Accounts confirm their e-mail address. The privacy policy explains what is stored and why.

  • Yes, on the Enterprise plan: the platform runs on your domain and, if you prefer, on your own infrastructure.
