What to Build

Your mission is to vibe code with Gemini to transform Team USA and publicly available data into interactive dashboards, web apps, or AI agents that showcase the collective power of Team USA. Your project should fit into one of the following categories:

• Challenge 1: The Team USA Performance Parity Report

• Build a dashboard or app that treats Olympic and Paralympic team data with equal prominence. Highlight shared milestones or hometown support systems. 

• The Data: Historical athlete data and team qualification data, ensuring Olympic and Paralympic parity.

• The Vibe: Showcase the collective power of Team USA across all disciplines.

• Challenge 2: The Hometown Success Engine

• Build a tool that identifies "Hubs" by correlating geography with the sports Team USA is present in. Focus on the number of Olympians/Paralympians from hometowns instead of the number of medalists to be inclusive of all athletes. Avoid implying that geography guarantees results; use conditional phrasing like "could help find".

• The Data: General number of Olympians/Paralympians from hometown regions and public geographical/climate data.

• The Vibe: A tool showing how the American landscape fosters Team USA excellence.

• Challenge 3: The Road to LA28 Games Bracket

• The Data: Team USA World Championship counts and recent news articles.

• The Challenge: Build a "National Momentum" generator for sports featuring at the LA28 Games. Use Gemini to analyze growth and upward trajectory for Team USA sports.

• The Vibe: A prediction engine ranking sports by growth and preparation milestones leading to the LA28 Games.

• Challenge 4: The Athlete Archetype Agent

• Create an analytics tool that clusters 120 years of historical data into "Athlete Archetypes," such as "Powerhouse" for throwers or "Aerobic" for endurance. Build a fan-facing agent where users input biometrics to find their body type's historical alignment with Team USA sports. The agent must explain Paralympic classifications with the same analytical depth as Olympic ones. Ensure all archetypes and insights are presented using conditional phrasing like "could lead to" rather than guaranteeing specific performance results.

• The Data: A dataset of US-only data spanning 120 years, including biometrics, results, and regional hometown data. 

• The Vibe: A "Digital Mirror" that helps fans see themselves in the collective journey of Team USA through data-driven storytelling, without identifying specific private individuals.

• Challenge 5: Choose Your Own Challenge

• The Challenge: Select your own fan-centric question and create your own challenge! The challenge must follow all data use restrictions, ensure Olympic and Paralympic parity, focus on AI's analytical capabilities (insights, comparisons, or pattern tracking) rather than promising better results or performance, avoid implying that performance guarantees results (use conditional phrasing like "could help find), and follow all submission requirements below. 

General Requirements (All Challenges)

• Core Technical Requirements (Mandatory):

• Gemini API: Must be used for narrative generation, data analysis, content drafting, agentic logic, etc.

• Google Cloud Deployment: The final solution must be deployed using a Google Cloud service (e.g., Cloud Run, App Engine, or AI Studio).

What to Submit

• Project built with Gemini API AND deployed on Google Cloud for one of the five Challenges

• URL to the hosted Project (if available) for judging and testing.

• Text description - features, functionality, technologies used, data sources, and your findings.

• URL to your public code repository. 

• must be licensed under the Apache License 2.0 (https://opensource.org/license/apache-2-0).This license should be detectable and visible at the top of the repository page (in the About section).

• Demonstration video of your Project (maximum of 3 minutes, visible on YouTube as unlisted, and in English or with English subtitles). 

• Must show a live demo of the project

• How you used Gemini models and Google Cloud by showing the Google Cloud console, AI Studio, and/or code. 

• The video must comply with all NIL and content restrictions noted in the FAQs
