NousResearch · x · 2026-07-16
NousResearch, together with NVIDIA and Stripe, has announced the winners of the Accelerated Business Hackathon. The competition required developers to build agents that can make money, spend money, and operate at real-world scale, receiving a total of 292 submissions.
The core focus of this prompt isn't just model capabilities, but rather integrating agents into real business processes: payments, business operations, and scaled execution.
