My First Agent Challenge: Build Your First AI Agent - No Coding Required

You see AI agents everywhere now. ChatGPT assistants, automated social media bots, personal replicas to do your work for you. Ever wondered how to build one yourself?

Today, we're launching something special: AI/ALL: Agent Takeover - a series of challenges designed to bring AI agent development to everyone, regardless of technical background.

"My First Agent" is our kickoff challenge, created specifically for curious minds who want to dive into AI but don't know where to start. This first challenge is for anyone who's been watching the AI revolution and thinking, "I want to be part of this!"

Whether you’re into productivity, crypto, memes, or just experimenting with something fun, you can build an agent in minutes using Sahara AI’s no-code/low-code Agent Builder.

Then share it with the world and compete for $5,000 in $SAHARA in prizes.

This is just the beginning. Over the coming months, we'll be rolling out challenges that take you from complete beginner to confident AI builder. But it all starts here, with your very first agent.

Ready to Build Your First AI Agent? Here Are the Rules.

"My First Agent" is the inaugural challenge in our AI/ALL: Agent Takeover series—a month-long, beginner-friendly experience designed to turn AI curiosity into hands-on building skills.

Using Sahara AI’s no-code/low-code Agent Builder, you'll create your very first AI agent alongside hundreds of other first-time builders. No programming experience needed, just curiosity and creativity.
