Why Questa

Questa brings structure to a hackathon's creative chaos: progress checkpoints, mentoring sessions logged by QR, networking between teams and sponsors, and a feed where everything happens. Ideal for hackathons, game jams and tech events.

Checkpoints that set the pace

From idea to MVP, each stage is a mission worth points. Teams always know what comes next and don't get lost in the first hours.

Mentoring and sponsors

Participants earn points by using mentoring (QR check-in) and visiting sponsor booths — who get data on who stopped by.

Live leaderboard that motivates

The real-time leaderboard creates the healthy competition that makes everyone give their best until the pitch.

FAQ

FAQ — Hackathons

Can it manage submissions and teams?

Questa manages participation, networking, mentoring and challenges. Final project submission usually stays on the pitch platform, but the whole journey up to it — teams, checkpoints, mentoring — lives in Questa.

Can sponsors get participant data?

They can see how many participants visited the booth, took the brand quiz or scanned the QR. You get concrete engagement proof to show sponsors.

Does it work with poor venue connectivity?

The app syncs when there's a connection. Since many hackathons have flaky Wi-Fi, the local QR codes and check-ins are lightweight and resilient to drops.

Is it multilingual for international hackathons?

Yes. You write each piece of content in PT, EN and ES, and every participant sees everything in their chosen language.
