HackZ

HACKZ – FROM PROBLEMS TO PRODUCTS Hackz is an end-to-end innovation lifecycle platform designed for colleges, universities and organisations to discover problems, nurture ideas, conduct innovation programs, evaluate submissions and take promising innovations forward. Hackz brings Ideathons, Hackathons and Research Paper Evaluations into a single platform, helping institutions manage the innovation journey from problems and ideas through evaluation, intellectual property, prototypes, publications and potential products. KEY CAPABILITIES ◆ End-to-End Innovation Lifecycle Manage problems, ideas, teams, evaluations and outcomes across the innovation journey – from problem discovery and ideation to prototypes, publications and potential products. ◆ Multi-Event Innovation Platform Conduct Ideathons, Hackathons and Research Paper Evaluations through a common platform with consistent event management, participation and evaluation workflows. ◆ Persistent Institutional Innovation Repository Build a long-term repository of problems, ideas, teams, submissions, events, evaluations and outcomes instead of losing valuable innovation data after each event. ◆ AI & Originality Analysis Provider-neutral AI and originality analysis supporting similarity checks, AI-writing indicators, matching sources and detailed reports based on the capabilities of the configured provider. ◆ Configurable Evaluation & Ranking Define evaluation criteria and weightages, assign judges, evaluate submissions and manage rankings and results for different innovation programs. ◆ Reports & Smart eCertificates Generate useful reports and institution-branded eCertificates for participants and 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place achievers, with configurable event-level signatories. ◆ Secure Multi-Organisation Platform Designed for multiple colleges and organisations with isolated organisation environments, secure access and centralised platform management. ◆ Role-Based Workspaces Provide dedicated dashboards and workflows for administrators, department administrators, coordinators, judges, team leads and team members. BEYOND THE EVENT Hackz is designed to help institutions build a continuous innovation ecosystem rather than manage each event in isolation. Problem → Idea → Ideathon → Evaluation → Patent/IP → Prototype → Hackathon → Publication → Product Promising ideas can continue beyond an Ideathon or Hackathon towards intellectual property, prototypes, research publications and potential real-world products – helping institutions build, manage and track their innovation portfolio over time.
