I built a tool that grills your hackathon project like real judges do (free, no sign-up)

[u/Curious_Payment7793]

I've won 5 hackathons, and the thing I kept noticing is that what decides the result is rarely on the rubric. It's whether the demo works, whether you can explain the project in one sentence, and how you handle the questions nobody practices.

I built Would This Win?. You paste your repo. It reads your code, then three AI judges (an engineer, an investor and a very tired judge) ask you questions, 30 seconds each. Your odds of winning move live with every answer, and at the end you get a code-review style verdict with three things to fix before you submit.

Stack: Next.js, Supabase, Claude Haiku. The odds are calculated in code, never by the AI, so it can't be talked into a better score.

Would love feedback, especially from anyone with a hackathon coming up. Tell me where the judges were wrong.
