WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE DOJO

If you need a place to hack, if you need a place to meet people, if you need a place to drink beers on fridays. For me, the Hacker Dojo was my first home in the valley.

The people there wanted to be there because they loved tech, they loved the future, and they loved getting together with other people with similar sets of values.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can I get started?

You can sign up online and get access within minutes. Once you complete the membership form and payment, you'll receive your digital key to the building. No waiting period, no approval process for standard memberships.

Is there a long-term commitment?

No. All monthly plans can be cancelled at any time. The annual plan locks in a lower effective rate (saving you $450) but is paid upfront. We don't do contracts or lock-in periods on monthly billing.

How does the annual billing work?

The annual Standard plan is $1,350 paid once per year, equivalent to $112.50/month — a savings of $450 compared to monthly billing. Student and Veteran annual plans may also be available; contact us for details.

How do I verify student or veteran status?

After signing up, you'll be asked to provide a valid student ID or military service documentation. Our team will review and activate the discounted rate within one business day.

What is a Dedicated Desk?

A dedicated desk is a permanent, reserved workspace that is yours every day. You can leave your monitor, equipment, and personal items set up without packing away each visit. It's an add-on to any membership plan for +$225/month.

Can I host events or workshops at Hacker Dojo?

Yes. Members can request event space for talks, hackathons, and workshops. Use the "Request An Event" link on our homepage or contact the front desk to check availability and book a space.

Where is Hacker Dojo located?

Hacker Dojo is located in the heart of Silicon Valley. Visit our homepage for the exact address and a map. We're accessible by public transit and have parking nearby.
