What is AI Tinkerers?
AI Tinkerers is the world’s most curated community of active AI builders: engineers, researchers, founders, and technologists who come together to share real work and push boundaries. We focus on hands-on innovation, not theoretical pontification. Every event delivers working code, live demos, and systems in motion. Curated. Technical. No fluff.
Q: Who is AI Tinkerers for and who is it not for?
We curate for people rolling up their sleeves. Whether you’re debugging large distributed systems or shipping breakthroughs through low-code pipelines, you must pop the hood, debug in public, and help others do the same—think modern-day Homebrew Computer Club.

🎤 Submit Your Demo Proposal
This is a technical show-and-tell for builders, by builders. We want to see your messy experiments, creative hacks, and technical discoveries in action. Your demo should answer: “How did you build this interesting thing?” not “Why should someone use this product?”
Demos are five-minute, work-in-progress showcases focused on the build itself:
- No pitches. Share a challenge, discovery, or lesson—not a startup promo.
- No slides. Jump straight into code, serverless graph, or workflow.
- Show & tell. Highlight architecture, tricky bits, and one hard lesson.
- Enable peers. Unblock or inspire another tinkerer with something concrete.
