ONLYHACKS for the ONLYWEIRD '26 runs on OnlyWorks — a verification engine that turns your real work into a credential anyone can verify with one link. To register you must: (1) create a free OnlyWorks account, (2) download the desktop app, (3) put your OW ID in the form on the next page. No OW ID, no entry.

  1. 01

    OnlyWorks captures your build

    You install the desktop app + a one-line repo hook. It records what you actually shipped — locally, end-to-end encrypted, on your terms.

  2. 02

    It signs the receipt

    When you submit, OW packages the build into a tamper-evident verification record and signs it. You can’t fake it — but neither can anyone else.

  3. 03

    You get a verifiable cert

    Every finalist gets a digital certificate, signed by OnlyWorks, resolvable at only-works.com/verify/<hash>. Recruiters, judges, future-you: anyone can confirm.

Read the
OnlyWorks intro first.

We walk through install, verify, share, and the specific path for hackathon builders. It's the difference between a sticker and a credential.

Take a minute — getting OnlyWorks set up before you start is the difference between a sticker and a credential.
