SUNBULLA, a team that included two members of the Mawhiba community, won first place at the AgentX AI Hackathon. The Saudi Press Agency reported on October 19 that the team comprised four young women. Its project is a nursery-management platform that connects nurseries in one system and tracks seedlings from registration through growth, production and distribution.

The platform uses data analytics and AI to forecast demand and production, identify plant-health risks early and recommend ways to improve planning and resource efficiency. These are described functions and aims; the report does not say the platform has entered commercial operation or produced measured savings.
