Summary

Over 300 participants took part in Hack The Valley, an annual student-run hackathon at the University of Toronto, where they built over 70 projects within 36 hours. Among these projects were three that utilized AssemblyAI's Speech-to-Text API: ShopAdvisr, a mobile shopping app with smart recommendations and product recognition; AcadeME, an educational tool for note taking and summarization during live lectures; and Speed Reader, an application that enables users to read text at faster speeds by streaming words on the screen.
