GrabMaps API Hackathon
About this event
Be among the first to build with unreleased GrabMaps APIs. This exclusive beta hackathon welcomes developers of all skill levels to rapidly prototype, stress-test, and shape the future of GrabMaps before official launch.
You'll get elevated API credits throughout the day, hands-on guidance from Grab engineers, and ~7 hours of hacking time to bring your ideas to life.
Choose your track:
🚗 Intelligent Mobility — Build solutions that improve how people, goods, and services move through cities. Think dynamic routing for delivery fleets, ETA comparisons across transport modes, or route planners that adapt to real-time incidents.
🗺️ Discover the City — Maps are discovery engines. Build tools that help people uncover places, experiences, and communities — hyperlocal recommendations, curated map experiences, or social maps where users share favorite spots.
📍 Smarter Places — Places have identity, activity, and context. Build tools that help businesses and users better understand them — richer POI pages, live trending location maps, or platforms that visualize activity around places.
