The OpenAI Codex Community Hackathon - Kochi brought together a vibrant community of builders at Jain University, Kochi for a full day of creation, collaboration, and innovation powered by Codex.

Teams pushed boundaries using OpenAI tools, supported with API credits and ChatGPT Plus access to bring their ideas to life. After two rigorous rounds of evaluation, five standout teams advanced to the final stage, showcasing depth, originality, and real-world problem solving.
The spotlight moments belonged to the winners - with Reelit, X86, and Archie leading the way and earning significant OpenAI API credit rewards, alongside Pro access for top performers across the board.

Powered by energy, driven by ideas, and fueled by Red Bull - this was more than a hackathon. It was a glimpse into the future of AI-native building.
