Tell us what eats your week. Silicon Valley builders will build the AI that handles it.
We're bringing 30+ real restaurants, shops and service businesses into a Stanford build challenge with Converge AI. You share one everyday headache, like missed calls, slow replies or forgotten follow-ups. Builder teams turn it into a working AI assistant and show it to you live at Demo Night.
Takes about 5 minutes. No technical knowledge needed.
Businesses that talk to a lot of customers
If you or your team answer the same questions every day, chase leads by hand, or lose bookings when the phone rings during a rush, you're exactly who we want.
Restaurants & cafés

Retail & online shops
- “Where's my order?” and return requests

Booking-based services

See it live at Stanford
Teams demo their solutions on stage. You watch, give feedback, and meet the builders you'd like to keep working with.
A small ask, a real payoff
What you get
- Working AI prototypes built around your actual business
- Several teams' ideas for the same problem, so you can compare
- Your business featured at a Stanford event, in front of founders and investors
- A direct line to builders and the Converge AI team if you want to keep going
What we ask from you
- One clear problem you'd love to stop doing by hand
- A 15-minute call and a few sample materials you're comfortable sharing
- Honest feedback on what the teams build
- Join us at Demo Night if you can (optional, but more fun)
Agent Team Demo Night
Late November 2026 at Stanford University. Builders, founders and investors, plus the businesses whose problems they solved.
What would you hand off tomorrow if you could?
Spots are limited to about 30 businesses. We'll reply within a few days to set up a quick call.
Good to know
Does it cost anything?
No. Taking part is free for businesses.
Do I need to know anything about AI or tech?
Not at all. Describe the problem the way you'd explain it to a new employee. We handle turning it into a brief for the builders.
Will my customers' information be shared?
Only what you choose to share. Most teams work from FAQs, menus, policies and example messages with personal details removed. We'll go through it together on the intake call.
Do I have to use what the builders make?
No obligation. If you like a solution, we'll introduce you to the team and you can decide together whether to keep going.
I'm not in the Bay Area. Can I still join?
Yes. The intake call is online, and you can follow Demo Night remotely. Being there in person is a bonus, not a requirement.
Can we talk in Chinese?
Yes. Our team works in both English and Chinese.
