The Problem Oxen.AI Solves For Hackathons

The Problem

Sharing, versioning, and iterating on datasets is an absolute headache for every AI/ML team. While Git LFS seems like a solution, the moment a dataset is over a GB, the whole experience breaks down as git is not made for large data files. Then, teams are left with sending each other tar balls or dumping all their data in a data bucket which is slow, low-visibility, and stressful to the engineers

The Solution

Oxen.AI solves the engineering headache with fast, intuitive, and powerful versioning. On top of the effortless versioning and sharing, Oxen.AI offers several powerful features to augment the data engineering process from a one click model evaluations to editable datasets from our UI (examples below).

🤝 How Oxen.AI Supports Hackathons

We will provide free compute credits for the hackathon and offer a few different paths in which we can partner with your hackathon.

  1. Public Access Hackathons - Public data can be stored in an Oxen public repository which anyone can access. Ex:
  2. Restricted Access Hackathons - Data which you do not want exposed to the broader public but would like applicants to apply for access. Ex:
  3. Internal Hackathons - Want an internal hackathon only? We can support private data repositories. Ex:
  4. Data Requests - Looking for data of a specific type? Want to make a “Call for data?” We can help tap into the public to source data more easily. We’ll provide you with an email specific to your repo(s) or API access should you want to design your own ingestion application.
    1. Ex: Images of skin for a dermatological study, or audio clips with different narrators to better handle accents, or images of handwriting for an analyses, or images of wildlife for a wildlife study…

With the appropriate plan(s) above, the appropriate individuals gain access to the data and can quickly integrate into their own ML and data science workflows.

If you desire, they can also contribute additional data back which may improve the overall outcomes.

Powerful Features Oxen.AI Provides:

We have a few multiple powerful features that allows engineers and non-technical team members alike to make crucial contributions to their hackathon team. Here are some examples of our most popular features:

  1. Model Compute - With one click, engineers and non-technical team members can gracefully and effortlessly run any model they would like on their data.
