Build AI 5 May – 30 Jun 2026 8 weeks India Only Teams of 1–3 3+ Years Work Experience ₹6,00,000 Prize Pool 100% Online Register Now Overview Microsoft Build AI is grounded in a simple belief: meaningful innovation comes from builders who take on tough challenges and deliver real, working solutions. Across six dynamic tracks, you’ll solve complex, real-world problems spanning productivity, security, agentic systems, and beyond. This is not just about ideation - it’s about execution, impact, and building what truly works. Who Can Participate • Professionals with 3+ years of work experience • Participate individually or in teams of up to 3 members • One submission per team • Participants can be part of only one team Problem Statements 6 Challenge Tracks Theme 01 - AI AT WORK Productivity & Teamwork Reimagined The way people work — and work together — is changing fast. AI is rewriting the rules of productivity and collaboration, turning chaotic inboxes into prioritized action lists, transforming scattered team conversations into shared clarity, and replacing manual drudgery with intelligent automation. This theme challenges you to build AI-powered solutions that cut through the noise, eliminate repetitive work, and help professionals focus on what actually matters — while making teamwork feel effortless, not exhausting. Think smart assistants, intelligent workflows, real-time knowledge sharing, AI-powered conversation summaries, and tools that make sure no idea gets lost and no task falls through the cracks. Whether it's helping an individual power through their day or helping a distributed team operate like they're in the same room — build something that doesn't just save time, but fundamentally changes how work gets done by individuals and teams.

This theme challenges you to build monitoring frameworks, defense mechanisms, and trust architectures that keep agentic systems safe from prompt injection, identity spoofing, unauthorized access, and adversarial misuse. If agents are the future, someone needs to make sure that future is secure. .png) Theme 03 - AGENTIC WEB Agentic Web What if AI could browse, interact, and get things done on the web on your behalf? This theme is about building autonomous agents that navigate websites, extract information, complete multi-step transactions, and orchestrate actions across services without hand-holding. Your agent should be smart enough to plan, resilient enough to recover, and useful enough that users never want to go back to doing it manually. Theme 04 - DATA & INSIGHTS AI Meets Data Data is everywhere, but insight is rare. This theme is about building AI solutions that take raw, messy, unstructured data and turn it into something teams can actually act on. Think intelligent data cleaning, automated enrichment, pattern discovery, and analytics pipelines that surface the signal buried in the noise. If your soluti
