 Team formation & project submission lack a structured workflow.
 Judges need a better way to review and evaluate projects.

we are interested, so its important to assemble every info at a same platform.
 No team matching feature, some even struggle to find teammates
 In platform chat system
 No demo/preview option to see how platform works
 Manual score collection
 No live QnA sessions
 Mentor communication is weak
 Winning projects don’t get visibility
 No way to stay connected after hackathon
