How We Judge

Four things the judges care about.

Creativity beats complexity. A simple tool that runs beats an impressive one that doesn't.

Data Integration

25%

Nansen data drives the logic - not just appears on screen.
The deeper the integration, the stronger the score.

Functionality & Workability

25%

Live data loads. End to end. No crashes.
If it breaks in the recording, it doesn't qualify.

Creativity & Originality

25%

A use case nobody thought to build.
We've seen dashboards. Show us something we haven't.

Documentation & Submission

25%

Clean README. Followable recording. No narration needed. Another builder can run it in under 10 minutes.
