We're thrilled to announce our newest challenge with Algolia!

Running through February 8, the Algolia Agent Studio Challenge invites you to build intelligent, data-driven AI agents using Algolia's Agent Studio and search infrastructure. Whether you're crafting conversational shopping assistants, building smart workflow enhancements, or creating proactive user experiences, this challenge is your opportunity to explore how fast, contextual retrieval powers the next generation of AI applications.

There will be four chances to win.

We hope you give it a try!

Our Prompts

Consumer-Facing Conversational Experiences

Use Agent Studio to craft rich, dialogue-based experiences for end users. Think shopping assistants, guided discovery tools, customer support bots, or any conversational interface that benefits from intelligent data retrieval.

Your agent should demonstrate targeted prompting with retrieval from indexed data to provide contextually relevant responses. Consider incorporating Algolia's new InstantSearch chat widget to build your frontend experience.

Consumer-Facing Non-Conversational Experiences

Fashion "look" creation from a curated index
PC building with knowledge of compatibility of different components

The key is showing how contextual data retrieval enhances user experience without requiring back-and-forth dialogue.
