Curated. Technical. No fluff.

The global community for hands‑on AI builders.

Curated rooms for people building with AI. Bring working code, share what broke, and test your ideas with builders who understand the work. Find collaborators, build on others’ breakthroughs, and connect to a global network that can help take your ideas to the world.

No slides. Demo the thing.

We focus on demos, code, and technical insight. No sales pitches, no generic AI panels. Working systems set the agenda.

Innovate. Share what broke.

Bring side projects, unfinished systems, architecture notes, trade-offs, and failure modes. The room is built for candid technical work.

Local rooms. Global signal.

Each city protects the room locally while contributing to a shared global standard for serious AI builders.

Our thesis

Builders drive the agentic economy.

Builders are establishing the foundations of the next economy. Their choices influence how work gets done, where money flows, and which technologies become infrastructure.

The decisions of a relatively small number of builders will shape how billions of people live and work.

AI Tinkerers connects them through local rooms and a global network, helping good ideas become working practices others can build on.

Be ambitious. Start with an idea. Bring a prototype. Work through the hard parts with builders in your city and around the world.

Thank you for organizing the event. It is a wonderful space to meet others that are also passionate about building things.

It was my first event. The community was welcoming and great! Appreciated the demos and examples with practical applications.

This was my first time attending the event, and getting to present was so much fun! Looking forward to attending more!
