Call My Agent Hackathon
Y Combinator
📌About the Event
The Call My Agent Hackathon is a premier “action-oriented” AI sprint hosted by AgentPhone (P26) at the Y Combinator (YC) headquarters in San Francisco.
This event marks a shift from passive “chat-only” AI to Agentic AI models that can physically interact with the world via phone calls, emails, browser automation, and SMS. The focus is on building “in-production” style agents that perform real-world tasks, with infrastructure support from industry leaders like Google DeepMind.
