An example of gating access to a future merch purchase by using @causalitynow to provide access only to those who currently possess pre-existing merch/swag (a whole new model for rewarding loyalty). Great work @liamstorydev!

That's a wrap on our first hackathon! 12 teams, 12 @causalitynow-powered solutions answering the question (paraphrased): In a world where physical-digital connections are so important, how would redefine consumer experiences? [Awareness, Engagement and Conversion]

🚀 The Merge Hackathon 2024! 🚀

This past weekend, @cginc_ (creators of @causalitynow) and @betaworks brought together several dozen people across 12 incredible teams for its very first hackathon in NYC.

The challenge? Redefine immersive consumer experiences by seamlessly blending physical and digital worlds using causality.

Participants had half a day to put their creativity to work before presenting their builds to a team for scoring, including:

* Guest judges @REALbyNIGHT (@thesyndotcom, Marketing and Experiential) and Shai Limonchik (@AnthropicAI, Tech )

* Official @cginc_ staff and support members @StrawberrySith, @TheHazelBrown and Jordan Zapakin

* Special guest (PowerStation Studios, Licensing and Product Experiences).

Competition was fierce, with three victors emerging to take 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prizes:

🥇 1st Place: Clever Coffee

A causality-powered loyalty program replacing traditional paper stamp reward cards, “Clever Coffee” turns every coffee tap into a rewarding experience. It perfectly blended digital innovation with tangible enjoyment, which is always our goal for causality’s use and evolution.

🥈 2nd Place: Forager

A retail-oriented scavenger hunt combining causality's ability to enable interaction with the physical space for end-users and AI which generates stories and prompts on the fly, making each experience unique (even in the same store).

🥉 3rd Place: PlateShare

Social good meal-cards, powered by causality, which can be handed out to the needy and loaded on the fly with meals from participating restaurants.

A massive congratulations to the grand prize winners, the two runner up teams and of course to all 12 groups who brought creativity, passion, and cutting-edge thinking to our challenge.

𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀! 🎉

A new version of the causality 𝗺𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽 is live, our 𝗵𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝘂𝗽𝘀 are filling up, and a bit of strategic 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 has commenced. Oh my, let's dig in.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲

For strategic reasons, we have begun to intentionally separate between:

* @cginc_, the name of our company, and
* @causalitynow, the name of our flagship product

You may need only one guess as to why... (hint: it's a very fun reason).

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝗛𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗻 - 𝗡𝗬𝗖, 𝟳 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰

We've got a bunch of signups already for our first hackathon (also our first event ever!), still a few weeks out.

Full details 👉🏻 https://t.co/Nr2ImMPsAL
(Thanks again to our amazing partners at @betaworks )

As coding is required during this event, a handful of you have written to ask if we can help with team matching. We'll open up a thread on each of our socials to help with that, possibly also time to open a Discord server.

𝗔𝗽𝗽 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 - 𝘃𝟮.𝟲

We've taken and applied almost every bit of feedback we got from our activation at @gamescom over the summer. Stability and UX improvements all around. I am extremely proud of how polished causality has become. It's primed and ready for all of our Hackathon participants and everything that comes after...

Last but not least, as a bit of winter spirit we pushed a new app icon (this is our first time doing so since our creative redesign in March). I hope you like it and that it puts you all in the mood for winter break, the holidays and the New Year 🥂
