Project Overview

CommuniTrader is a community-based trading platform that originally existed as a website for buying, selling, and exchanging goods and services within trusted communities. The goal of this project was to redesign and transform the web experience into a mobile-first application with a more intuitive, engaging, and AI-powered user experience that improves usability, engagement, and conversion.
