Where NLP meets industry 4.0
Waylay NLP is an Artificial Intelligence model developed by Waylay. It parses natural language and generates automation scenarios in response.
We are very pleased to announce that we will be organising the first NLP IoT automation event followed by the Hackathon! Our virtual Hackathon will be around NLP and automation. Each team will get a Waylay mentor.
The event will run from March 23rd until 5:00pm CET until April 6 6:00PM. The judges will assess the applications for 1 week until April 14th 6:00PM.
Everybody will get the chance the play around with cutting edge technology. You don't have to be an expert to join, the Hackathon is about hacking the Waylay tech while also having fun!
An opportunity to attend a really cool event, connect and compete with fellow NLP enthusiasts and of course win awesome prizes! Just by participating you will receive Waylay stickers, socks and T-shirts!

Here you will find answers to the most commonly-asked questions
A hackathon is a challenge in which teams try to develop a creative proof of concept within a certain amount of time and around a certain theme.
At the end all entries will be judged on the criteria specified above. But regardless of what we think, you and your team created something out of nothing and that is cool in and of itself!
All participants will receive Waylay stickers, socks and T-shirts. The winner will get Arduino hardware Speech to Text packages & M5Stack hardware Speech to Text packages.
No, use any coding language you want. The NLP engine is already provided to you. You can add speech to text, bots or any other tech stack you like.
Each team will get one Waylay mentor. You can also read our documentation and also see how we have implemented different use cases. If this doesn't solve your problem, then you are always welcome to post your question on our forum.
At the end of the Hackathon, the team will upload a Youtube video briefly explaining the application and tweet about it with hashtag #nlpwaylay.
No, there is no need to prepare a dataset.
Nothing at all! We hope you enjoy hacking our technology!
No, but all the members on your team need to be registered to the event and create an IO account.
No, we fully encourage multidisciplinary teams!
You and your team, enjoy!
No, but the solution should be as clear as possible. Working with a presentation is encouraged.
You can add in screen recordings or videos of your hardware throughout to illustrate the idea even better.
An end to end demonstration is the minimum requirement.
