Appathon 2025

Data Apps Conference

What can you build with Sigma Data Apps in just two hours? In this friendly competition, three contestants tackle a real-world challenge: creating a rent-versus-buy calculator using Denver metro real estate data.

Each contestant was given the same dataset and requirements:

  • Feature data warehouse writeback to build a workflow
  • Use a scoring model to make a clear buy vs. rent recommendation
  • Demonstrate Sigma’s capabilities and ease of app development

See the final app demos, hear direct feedback from the judges, and witness the crowning of the first-ever Sigma Data Apps Golden GOAT Champion. Whether you're a seasoned data pro or just getting started, this competition proves that with Sigma, anyone can build powerful applications—fast.
