From a hackathon win to pAIge, a student-services assistant at TUM.
An idea that made it past the hackathon.

A weekend was the beginning.

At the Microsoft × TUM hackathon in December 2023, our team won first place out of thirty-two teams with a student-services chatbot. The idea grew into pAIge through a collaboration involving TUM, Microsoft Germany, and implementation partner milbo.

The part I built.

I worked on the retrieval-augmented generation pipeline and the chat interface: hybrid retrieval, streamed answers with citations, and an evaluation framework. The goal was to help students find useful answers in university information.

Beyond the demo.

pAIge became a live student-services tool. This is the kind of hackathon outcome I care about: a promising prototype growing into something people can use.
