The Agent-a-thon: The Enterprise AI Agent Creation Competition

Everyone talks about AI agents. Few truly know what they are, and even fewer have actually created one. The Agent-a-thon changes that in half a day: your teams leave with a functional agent, built around their real-world use cases.

The Concept

What is an Enterprise Agent-a-thon?

The Agent-a-thon is an in-company AI competition format. Your teams compete over half a day to design and build real AI agents, connected to your tools and tailored for your specific business needs.

The result: you won't just walk away with another PowerPoint. You'll leave with a catalog of operational agents, created by your own employees, ready to be deployed the very next day.

What the participants say

Decision-makers who organized an Agent-a-thon for their teams share their experience.

"

We had done dozens of AI workshops before. This time, in half a day, my managers left with 16 agents connected to our SharePoint. Concrete. Useful. We deployed 4 into production the following month.

What surprised me was seeing business directors who had never touched an agentic platform configure an agent in 3 hours. Working on their real problems, as a team... that changes everything compared to a classic demo.

The impact on the teams was huge. Beyond the agents we kept, it was a collective realization: everyone understood that agentic AI was no longer just an IT topic. We launched 3 internal projects right after.

Your FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions about the Agent-a-thon

What is an AI agent?

An AI agent is a program based on a language model capable of understanding a request, retrieving information from your data, and then autonomously executing a task (writing, analyzing, triggering an action). Unlike a simple chatbot, an agent acts; it doesn't just respond. The best way to understand what an AI agent is, is to build one. This is exactly what the AI Sisters Agent-a-thon offers: in half a day, your teams build a functional one, based on their own use cases.

What is the difference between an AI agent and ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a general-purpose assistant that answers your questions based on its knowledge. An AI agent specializes in a specific mission, connects to your company data (SharePoint, CRM, internal databases), and can execute concrete actions. One converses, the other works. During the Agent-a-thon, your teams will interact with both and immediately understand the difference by building their own business agent.

How to create an AI agent in a company?

+Creating an AI agent involves 5 steps: defining its role, connecting it to your data, having it execute tasks, improving the quality of its responses, and creating a complete workflow. Most companies get stuck at step 1 due to a lack of methodology and practical experience. The AI Sisters Agent-a-thon was designed around these 5 steps: in half a day, your employees build a functional agent from start to finish, guided by 5 AI Sisters experts.

Why do 95% of generative AI projects fail to reach production?

According to MIT NANDA (State of AI in Business 2025), 95% of generative AI projects in companies never reach production. Not for technical reasons, but because teams don't adopt them. The project is driven by IT or an external firm, never by the business units themselves. The Agent-a-thon solves this problem by having your employees build the agents for their real use cases, which guarantees adoption from day one.

Which platform should I use to build an AI agent?

The main agentic platforms in 2026 are Microsoft Copilot Studio, OpenAI GPTs, Claude Projects, and Google Gemini. The choice depends on your existing stack (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, etc.) and your security constraints. The Agent-a-thon is agnostic: we adapt the event to your chosen platform, or organize a comparative format if you are still undecided.

How can I train my teams to design AI agents?

Theoretical training on agentic AI isn't enough: you need to build an agent to understand how it works. The most effective format combines rapid acculturation (1.5-hour AI Show), supervised practice (3 hours of team building on real cases), and presentation (pitching the best agents). This is exactly the format of the AI Sisters Agent-a-thon, designed for employees with no technical prerequisites.

How long does it take to build an AI agent?

+A simple AI agent can be built in a few hours by a trained individual. An agent connected to your data with a complete workflow takes about 3 hours for a guided team. This is exactly the duration of the Agent-a-thon: 3 hours of supervised competition, after which each team leaves with a functional, tested agent ready for internal expansion.

How much does an in-company Agent-a-thon cost?

The price of an Agent-a-thon depends on the number of participants (up to 80), the level of customization for use cases, the format (in-person or remote), and desired follow-ups (strategic debrief, post-event support, industrialization of agents). Contact AI Sisters for a quote tailored to your needs.

What happens to the agents built after the event?

+A simple AI agent can be built in a few hours by a trained individual. An agent connected to your data with a complete workflow takes about 3 hours for a guided team. This is exactly the duration of the Agent-a-thon: 3 hours of supervised competition, after which each team leaves with a functional, tested agent ready for internal expansion.
