For hackathon sponsors: which projects are alive / zombie / dead 30-90 days later, still using your API, and winning demos kept alive
Sponsors and organisers spend money on hackathons but cannot show whether builders kept using their API. Without that evidence, it is hard to justify the spend or decide which winning projects deserve support.
Afterlife Wake checks hackathon projects 30 to 90 days later and reports which are alive, zombie, or dead.
- 1Sponsor connects their API and the hackathon project list.
- 2Wake checks each project's activity and API calls at 30 to 90 days.
- 3Dashboard shows alive, zombie, and dead projects, with winning demos kept running.
