Sri Lankan agentic AI studio sixn.ai has secured a major international victory at the SuperAI NEXT Hackathon 2026 in Singapore, finishing among the Top 5 teams overall and winning the Best Use of Stripe Award for its AI fashion companion, Bloom.

The achievement marks a significant milestone not only for sixn.ai but also for Sri Lanka’s growing presence in the global artificial intelligence landscape. Competing against 700 applicants, 80 teams, and participants from 26 countries, sixn.ai was the only Sri Lankan company to secure a place in the overall Top 5 at one of Asia’s largest and most competitive AI events.

SuperAI is widely regarded as Asia’s largest AI event, bringing together leading AI founders, researchers, investors, technology companies and innovators from around the world. The SuperAI NEXT Hackathon is one of the conference’s flagship competitions, providing a platform for emerging AI builders to develop and showcase cutting edge solutions under intense time constraints. Securing a Top 5 finish among international participants places sixn.ai alongside some of the region’s most promising AI innovators and highlights Sri Lanka’s growing capabilities in advanced artificial intelligence.

Built within the hackathon’s intense 36-hour timeframe, Bloom is an AI powered fashion companion that demonstrates how intelligent agents can understand user intent, coordinate tasks and deliver seamless commerce experiences, showcasing the practical potential of agentic AI.

For sixn.ai, the recognition validates a broader vision: AI agents should do more than assist users. They should understand business context, collaborate across workflows and execute complex tasks with meaningful autonomy.

“The AI landscape has changed dramatically. Building quality AI products is no longer the biggest challenge. The real opportunity lies in understanding business context, identifying meaningful problems and applying AI where it can create measurable impact,” said Shivantha Meepage, Founder of sixn.ai.

Founded with the mission of building the operating layer for the next generation of enterprises, sixn.ai develops agentic AI solutions that enable organizations to move beyond traditional automation and embrace intelligent autonomous systems.

Headquartered in Colombo, the company represents a new generation of South Asian technology builders creating globally competitive AI products with a product first mindset and deep technical expertise.

The dual recognition at SuperAI NEXT 2026 validates both the technical sophistication of sixn.ai’s architecture and its ability to rapidly transform ideas into deployable products.

Looking ahead, sixn.ai plans to expand its enterprise AI systems portfolio, pursue strategic international partnerships and continue showcasing Sri Lankan innovation on the global stage.

As the global race toward agentic AI accelerates, sixn.ai’s performance at SuperAI NEXT 2026 serves as a powerful reminder that groundbreaking AI innovation can emerge from anywhere and that Sri Lanka is firmly in the race.
