About CREDIFY3
We live in an era where anyone can generate software. CREDIFY3 is for those who can understand it, question it, defend it, and build a safer tomorrow.
Because the future needs more than builders — it needs responsible thinkers.
What you must produce
- A working prototype or concept — show what you built and how it works.
- A 5-minute video — explain the problem, solution, reasoning and risks.
- An AI-use disclosure — state which AI tools assisted the work.
- Your final submission through CREDIFY before the deadline.
