A one-page guide that walks any age from a problem they've noticed to a simple solution.
OpenPitch Template
The five-part structure: problem, solution, who it's for, why it matters, and what's exciting.
OpenJudging Rubric
The same criteria judges use, so teams know exactly what they're being recognized for.

OpenSlide Template
A clean, six-slide deck outline so teams can present with confidence — polish is never required.
