I help founders turn their MVP ideas into reality… right up to Hackathons! 😄
From July 11th to 13th, I took part in the Chiliz Hackathon, in a truly iconic and inspiring location: the Parc des Princes 🏟️
🏆 And I’m super proud: our team won 2nd place in the AI Agents / Tools For Sports track! 🏆
The project? SOKAI 👉 https://t.co/4mNYIRAZ6l
SOKAI is a football training game for kids, where every completed exercise is detected by AI. These results are recorded on a SBT (Soulbound Token) – a non-transferable NFT proof, whose metadata updates as the child progresses. ⚽📲
MAKSES AI, the passionate football-loving founder, reached out to me beforehand to share his vision, and together we discussed MVP structuring and Web3 possibilities.
But it was during the Chiliz Hackathon that everything truly came together: we built a team, aligned our strengths, and in just two days shipped the first working version of SOKAI!
⚽ Quentin TRESCH, data scientist and AI expert, trained the AI to recognize ball movements ⚽ Naherry Darouèche built the front-end gaming experience ⚽ And I developed the entire Web3 layer, from smart contract to front-end integration
👩💻 My role:
Smart contract development (Solidity) for SBT minting
On-chain AI data integration (score, time) into the SBT
Front-end integration + Figma mockup
Congrats to the team, and to MAKSES AI, the driving force behind the project – leading the pitch, the deck, the live demo, and an amazing video 👉 https://lnkd.in/epzseAnp
🎮 Play, have fun, and improve with SOKAI!
✨ Bonus: we even got a private tour of the Parc des Princes between coding sessions!
🎓 Special shoutout to Alyra, my blockchain & AI school 💙 — so nice to reconnect with my professor Cyril Castagnet and other alumni at the event! Congrats to them as well for their great hackathon performance!
A big thank you to the entire Chiliz team for the warm welcome! 🙏
