# They'll Fly You to Vegas if You Win This Coding Challenge

## Summary

A coding competition sponsored by Bright Data and BattleBots offers a VIP Las Vegas trip as the prize for building a developer project that uses Bright Data's web scraping tools to pull BattleBots data. The author walks through a sample project — a BattleBots AI fight predictor — explaining the full architecture: web scraping with Bright Data's Web Unlocker API to bypass rate limits and CAPTCHAs, data parsing and storage, vectorization using OpenAI embeddings, a vector database for RAG-based retrieval, and GPT-based predictions returned in a structured schema. The frontend is a React app. The competition is judged on creativity, technical execution, and real-world impact.
