OpenAI opened a DevDay side-quest sweepstakes on September 29, 2026, offering five Codex Micro keyboards to developers who publish short videos of themselves using ChatGPT and Codex. One finished challenge is enough to enter. Each eligible challenge is worth one raffle ticket, and no one can hold more than five.

Five keyboards. Ten builder challenges.

OpenAI is drawing five Codex Micro keyboards for developers who publish short videos of DevDay features. One finished challenge is an entry. Five is the cap.

Challenges you can try, versus tickets that count

Same unit: number of items. Ten are listed. Only five eligible submissions become raffle tickets.

Challenges listed

Tickets that count

Doing more than five challenges does not add tickets. One completed challenge is enough to enter the same random drawing.

Videos are 15–30 seconds, or under 30 seconds for Ultrafast. A direct upload does not count.

What works for anyone

Free accounts can earn the full five tickets on the free challenges. No purchase and no DevDay badge is required. Tickets are not ranked by polish or praise.

Where people get stuck

Half the list needs paid features still rolling out. The video must be public, and OpenAI gets a perpetual marketing license. The keyboard's live agent lights need the desktop app.

Closes October 1 at 2:30 p.m. PT

One prize per person. Equal weight per remaining ticket. Winners are notified by email within 72 hours of the October 2 drawing and must respond within 72 hours.
