2nd out of 91 teams · Call My Agent Hackathon · May 2026
Why it won: About 10 million people are booked into US jails every year, and the one phone call they are allowed usually reaches no one. In a California pilot, people who got a lawyer right after arrest spent 6 days in jail instead of 29; this makes that first call always connect. One person built it in under 12 hours at Y Combinator's office, and it remembers you: call back and it greets you by name with your lawyers' replies.
