CubePath hackathons
We run and sponsor events where the community turns ideas into real projects, from the hackathon we put together with midudev to the Cubethon. Everything you see here is built and deployed on our infrastructure.
CubePath Hackathon 2026
The biggest hackathon we have run so far. Two weeks, 238 projects submitted and more than $1,300 in prizes, with the whole midudev community building and deploying on CubePath.
The hackathon podium
A four-person jury scored user experience, creativity, usefulness and technical execution. These are the three projects that took a prize.
OpenVid
Cristian Olivera
A video editor for devs that runs entirely in the browser. Record your screen, add smooth zooms, device mockups and backgrounds, then export in 4K to MP4, WebM or GIF with nothing to install.
$500 Amazon + $150 PayPal + 1 year of midu.dev
TrueRisk
Javier de Jesús
Climate intelligence for the 52 provinces of Spain. It tracks eight types of natural hazard in real time and scores the risk per province with seven machine learning models trained on historical data.
$300 Amazon + $100 PayPal + 3 months of midu.dev
espejoCV
Yerko Reyes
A voice-based job interview simulator. You upload your CV, an AI generates realistic scenarios for your profile and gives you feedback on content, structure and tone.
$200 Amazon + $50 PayPal + 1 month of midu.dev
Cubethon 2026 Q3
The first edition of our own hackathon. The brief: build the app you wish existed and deploy it on CubePath. Sixteen days, 50 spots and a whole community building at the same time.
The three winning projects
The standard was extremely high and choosing was hard. These three stood out.
Veredict
Joaquín Casillas González
A practice room for pitches and public speaking. You present through your mic against a timer while a panel of 3 to 5 AI judges with different profiles listens, transcribes and scores you. Bilingual in Spanish and English.
$250 Amazon + 1 year of VPS
HookTrials
Iker Jurado
A reliability control plane for integrations. Create deterministic failure scenarios, inspect real webhooks, verify signatures and contracts, protect deliveries with durable retries and recover dead letters.
$100 Amazon + 1 year of VPS
English Pathway
Cristian Escalante
A platform for learning English with a conversational AI tutor over text and voice. It explains things in the student’s native language, tracks progress and adapts the next activities to their performance.
$50 Amazon + 1 year of VPS
The rest of the projects
Every participant with a valid project gets three months of CubePath credit and their place in the Hall of Fame.
MCP Devbox
@charle-z
A secure-by-default MCP server that lets an agent work on real repos: read, patch, run tests and deploy, with path jailing, secret denial and single-use plans with approval and auditing.
QAntiVPN
@LeonardoRRC
An API that detects whether an IP belongs to a VPN, proxy or datacenter by resolving it to its ASN with the global BGP routing table. In-memory longest-prefix-match over 1.46M IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes.
ChileRisk
@Alphabeath
An interactive map that scores the risk from natural hazards for the 16 regions and 346 communes of Chile, with a score that is comparable across territories and hazard types.
DevDash
@GanzytoX
Self-hosted monitoring for uptime, latency and SSL certificates, with automatic incident detection, Slack and Discord alerts and a public status page.
Akin
@martinezharo
A mobile-first habit tracker that turns daily goals into streaks, with a recovery window, coins, a customizable capybara, friends and an activity wall.
IgnisGuard
@SamuFer
A platform for monitoring and preventing wildfires in Spain, with historical heat maps, simulated patrol drone telemetry and preventive AI diagnostics.
MyPHR
@jhg
A personal health record controlled by the patient. Everything is encrypted in the browser and authentication is OPAQUE, so the server never reads the sensitive data.
