MyMLH
Your Hacker Identity.
MyMLH is an API that enables hackers to easily share and manage their data in one click.
Quickly create an application to generate an API Key and Secret that you can use for your event. You can use these keys to accept registrations and manage your user data.
Add a "Register" button to your website that points users to MyMLH. You'll be able to get the code for this once you've created your app. If you need to customize the flow, MyMLH integrates with most frameworks and languages out of the box.
Now that you're accepting registrations, you'll be able to view and manage the list of users who have shared their data with you. You'll have access to all their basic information and if you need more you can easily extend the API to get it.
Setting up MyMLH is super simple. Integrating it into your website can be as little as one line of code.
MyMLH has all the basic data you need from a hacker. Name, contact info, school, demographics, event preferences, and more.
Need something that MyMLH doesn't have out of the box? The API is easily extensible so you can collect whatever your need.
Over 50,000 hackers participate in MLH events every year. MyMLH is a trusted brand and is built using best practices.
The Community has created some amazing open source resources for MyMLH like Nucleus, built by the HackTX team.

“MyMLH made developing our hackathon attendee system a breeze! Not having to worry about basic and essential data collection and instead focus on the features we wanted for our event was a huge relief on our entire tech team.”
Robert Lynch
HackTX, Tech Director
“MyMLH really simplified our workflow. We were able to deploy a professional hackathon application in less than 24 hours with no issues. The API is well documented and easy to use, and hackers really love not having to fill out repetitive fields!”
Andrew Hoang
BostonHacks, Lead Organizer
“We leveraged MyMLH for registration at AstonHack, which meant less effort on our side. It was extremely easy to integrate and we didn’t have to store any personal participant information on our servers, which made UK data compliance a breeze.”
Aman Soni
