Open community · Fall 2026
Build the software your
cohort actually runs on.
A six-week, open-access community program. You build real applications in the frameworks and workflows professional engineering teams use—and the strongest builds go into production for the whole cohort to use.
You build the tools, then the best ones go live.
Weeks 1–3 are contests: project management, internal communications, then vibe marketing. Everyone reviews every submission on GitHub; optional public upvotes decide which build the cohort adopts and operates.
Weeks 4–6 go external, one week each: Ludwitt learning integration, a startup venture package, then an open-source swarm contribution.
Runs on Ludwitt
This cohort runs on Ludwitt. Pitchrise, the ALC process in Ludwitt, is at /alc. Week 4 is the Ludwitt integration: a registered, working, instrumented learning app. Week 4 requirements.

Run your venture or pitch cohort on Ludwitt — the curriculum from Algorithmacy Cohorts.
Working products, deployed and used
- Live applications running over HTTPS, not slide decks
- Real accounts, data, and deadlines for the whole cohort
- Setup docs and known limitations, written for the next engineer
Reviewed like a real engineering team
You read your peers' code, test their deployments, and write technical reviews before voting. Pass criteria are published before every project—no surprises, no participation trophies.
