AI Tinkerers Asunción: March Build Night
🛠️ Real AI Demos. No Slides. Just Code.
AI Tinkerers Asunción is a community for those actively building with foundation models and generative AI. We prioritize technical depth, hands-on experimentation, and the “Homebrew Computer Club” ethos. This is a space to show what you are building, share messy architectural challenges, and connect with other practitioners in Paraguay.
Registration is required and space is limited to 150 builders. Our events reach capacity quickly.

🎙️ Show Your Work
We are looking for builders to demo their latest projects. Whether it is a specialized RAG implementation, an autonomous agent workflow using OpenClaw, or a custom fine-tuning experiment, we want to see the internals.
What makes a great demo?
- Show, Don’t Tell: Run your project live. No slide decks allowed.
- Expose the Internals: Share your stack, prompt strategies, and what broke along the way.
- Teach, Don’t Sell: Focus on the technical “how” rather than a product pitch.
Who is this for?
This event is curated for active practitioners. We screen all registrations to maintain a high signal-to-noise ratio.
- ✅ Welcome: Engineers, researchers, and founders shipping AI software.
- 🚫 Not a fit: Recruiters, marketers, or those looking for a general AI overview.
📍 Venue & Location
The meetup will be held at the Centro Paraguayo-Japonés in Asunción. To maintain the quality of the session, the exact room and entry details will be sent only to confirmed and approved attendees.

AI Tinkerers Asunción Stats
- Attendees: This community of 161 members is composed of 68% full-stack developers, 54% AI and machine learning specialists, and 32% cloud infrastructure engineers. Key achievements include pioneering localized Guaraní NLP systems and deploying agentic AI in fintech and logistics. This high-signal hub bridges academic research and industrial-grade deployment, offering sponsors direct access to Paraguay's top technical innovators.
- Companies Represented: Featuring innovative startups and tech companies like Labelbox, CodeRabbit, Chili Piper, Saywise, Solviac AI, Penguin Academy, Ai-whisperers, Kemsa, Eien Innovations Tech, and more
- Demos: 5 demos have been submitted and 4 have been presented. The most engaging themes have focused on practical AI community building, turnkey AI-driven automation for everyday productivity, parallelized multi-agent development workflows that reduce merge friction, and fast, cost-effective deployment of applications using open-source infrastructure tools. Technical exploration has centered on AI agents, developer tooling, and deployment/security considerations.
- Testimonials:
A great demo tends to be (1) live and runnable with no-slide clarity (so the audience sees the system working end-to-end), (2) tightly scoped around a single practical outcome or workflow the community can replicate, and (3) explicit about the presenter’s technical stack and architectural trade-offs—exactly what the speaker form asks for (“show your project running live,” “expose your inner technical stack and architectural trade-offs,” and “focus entirely on teaching”). The evidence also suggests that engagement matters: even when the topic is narrative (e.g., community lessons), the structure should keep attention throughout and deliver concrete takeaways. Conversely, what to avoid is demos that feel like shallow overviews—e.g., purely high-level descriptions or minimal snippets that don’t sufficiently demonstrate the underlying system behavior or reproducibility—since that reduces the “teachability” and the sense that attendees just learned something they can apply immediately in their own projects.
The highest rated session in Asunción, as captured in the feedback, was Tomás Arribas’s “Construyendo una comunidad de IA: Lecciones desde AI Tinkerers Ámsterdam” (Demo page). Although it’s a community-focused talk rather than a code-heavy walkthrough, it clearly resonated because the presenter framed the story as “real—the good, the bad and the unexpected,” and tied lessons to what keeps an AI community alive (energy, keeping the essence when new organizers take over), which helps the audience stay engaged. Another strong technical example is Tomás Arribas’s “Parallelizing Agents with Git Worktrees” (Demo page) in Asunción: the demo’s value proposition is concretely about scaling agent workflows—running multiple agents in parallel using isolated Git worktrees—so participants can learn a specific mechanism to avoid conflicts and reduce context switching. Finally, Luis Yorgenis Orna Rodriguez’s “Demostración en vivo: tu propio agente privado con IA (gratis)” (Demo page) is positioned as an accessible live workshop (not requiring prior technical knowledge) with a fast, hands-on outcome: generating notebooks, tasks, events, reminders, and documents in about 30 minutes, which is the kind of immediate, real-world payoff many attendees prefer.
