Vibeland Kickoff Munich – Recap: 50 People, 7 Teams, 7 Products

How the day went

We were 50. Seven tables, seven teams, one room. No panel, no slides, no discussion about what someone should one day try. Just: sit down, start, and have something finished by the evening.

Three sponsors made the day possible, and we genuinely owe them a thank you:

• monday.com – for the boards and the internal organisation
• bepurple.ai – the team behind p0 (see also our p0 vs Lovable comparison)
• Till Freitag – because we believe in the format and put the day together ourselves

How it ran

We kept the day deliberately simple:

• Short talk by Fabian Hildesheim to open. Not 40 slides – a handful of clear thoughts you can actually work from.
• Build session #1 – seven teams in parallel.
• Lunch: pinsa, served right at the table. LAN-party style, no need for anyone to get up.
• Build session #2 – the phase where "runs on my laptop" turns into something you can show other people.
• Demos & drinks – every team shows what they built. Drinks after.

The pace carries itself when the breaks are short and nobody is in front of a microphone every ten minutes.

The seven products

Seven teams, seven very different ideas – everything was running by the evening:

1. Web scraper for company info – domain in, structured data out.
2. Personal assistant for your workday – tailored to a specific workflow, not yet another generic chatbot.
3. Yacht charter matchmaking and planning platform – crew, yacht, route.
4. Digital wardrobe & style assistant – photograph your wardrobe, get an outfit suggestion.
5. Concert ticket finder based on Spotify data – listening history in, matching live shows out.
6. Social fitness app – workouts and streaks with friends instead of solo against the app.
7. Bla-bla-o-mat – politics, but playful. Live in the browser.

Seven products in one day, with mixed teams, from people who in some cases hadn't met that morning. That was the nicest part.

Bonus pitch: Pierre Möckel (Beetroute)

At the end an external guest joined in: Pierre Möckel of Beetroute slipped in a short pitch on how he tackles problems today – which suited the mood in the room. Context: Pierre's LinkedIn post.

What we're taking with us

• Pinsa at the table works better than any catering.
• One short talk is enough. More stage time would have got in the way.
• Seven teams is a good size – small enough that you get to know people, big enough that the ideas really diverge.
• Evening demos are the best networking format. If you both shipped something that day, you already have something to talk about.

Munich was the opening. It won't be the last Vibeland. If you want to be at the next one, keep an eye on the DACH events overview 2026 – the next date drops there first.

And if you'd like to host the format somewhere yourself: drop us a line. Happy to share.
