A question we ask every week:
What is the best thing you have ever built?
Put up the best thing you have ever built. Every week. Judged by the people who decide who gets hired, funded, and taken seriously. Not a themed sprint on a timer, and not a rubric. Your actual best work, in front of a room that can change what happens next.

Why this exists:
Good work dies quietly.
Most good work dies quietly. It ships, it collects a handful of stars, and the person who built it moves on. Nobody who could change their trajectory ever sees it. The Singularity Weekly Challenge is the correction. Every week you put up the single best thing you have ever built. Not a themed sprint. Not a toy problem on a timer. Your actual best work, judged by people who make hiring decisions, by founders who have built and sold, and by operators who know the difference between a demo and a product. What you leave with is signal. A public rank that means something because of who assigned it, a verified record on your profile, and your work in front of an audience that was never going to find your repo on its own.
Your repo has four stars and three of them are yours. That is not a measure of the work. It is a measure of who saw it.
What you leave with:
- Signal that travels
- A rank assigned by people whose read on your work carries weight in a hiring conversation.
- Distribution
- The strongest builds get promoted to our network, our newsletter, and the people we introduce you to.
- Career routes
- Internships and pre-placement conversations with the companies in the room.
- Cash
- Weekly prize money for the top of the board.
- A record that stacks
- A verified certificate and leaderboard points that carry across every week you enter.
Start to finish:
How a week runs
- 01
Put up your best build
One project. The one you would show a stranger if you had a single shot at being taken seriously. Any age, any stack, shipped or half-shipped.
- 02
It gets screened
We read every entry. The ones with substance move to the panel, and everyone else gets told why they did not, which is more than most places give you.
- 03
A panel judges it live
Hiring managers, founders, and operators walk through the work with you. They ask the questions they would ask in a real interview loop.
- 04
You get the record
A rank on the board, a verified certificate on your profile, and the strongest work pushed out to our network. Then it runs again next week.
What the panel looks for:
Judged like an interview,
not a form.
The panel is made up of people who make hiring calls at companies you would want to work at, founders who have built and sold, and operators who can tell a demo from a product. Names go up before each week opens.
- Craft
- How well is it actually built. Architecture, edge cases, and the details only another builder notices.
- Originality
- Did you solve something real, or reskin a tutorial.
- Impact
- Who uses it, and what changed for them.
- Clarity
- Can you make someone who did not build it understand why it matters, in two minutes.
It compounds:
One board, every week.
Points from the Weekly Challenge stack onto the same all-time leaderboard as every event we have run. Turn up once and you have a record. Turn up every week and you have a case.

Before you ask:
Questions
Does the project have to be new?
No. Bring the best thing you have ever built, whenever you built it. This is a showcase of your peak, not a race against a clock.
Solo or team?
Either. If a team built it, enter as the team and everyone on it gets the record.
What if I have not shipped anything big?
Enter the thing you learned the most from. Judges read skill, not scope, and a small thing built well beats a large thing held together with tape.
Does it cost anything?
No. It never will.
How often does it run?
Every week, with a new panel and a fresh board.
What happens to my submission?
It stays yours. We showcase the strongest work with credit and a link back to you.
Somebody is going to get seen this week.
It may as well be the person who actually built the thing.
