Questions

Who can take part?

Anyone who wants to build with AI. Full rules are published before the regional championships.

Do I need a team?

No. Compete alone or with up to two others, and add teammates whenever you like.

Does it cost anything?

No, it's free.

Do I have to travel?

No. You can compete in your regional championship online.

Do I have to qualify for the final?

No. Everyone can take part in the final online. Qualifying is only for the on-site final in Oslo, which has room for 100 people. The best teams in each regional championship win those places, most on the night and a few after the tour.

Can I compete in more than one region?

Only one regional championship counts for your team.

I competed in 2026. Does that count?

2027 is a new competition, so sign up again. We'll recognise you when you do.
