01The brief

Classifieds apps put the listing first and the conversation second. For a trade-based marketplace, the conversation IS the transaction — so the entire IA had to invert.

02The approach

Chat-first product surface. Listings live inside threads, offers are sent as cards, and the search experience guides users to swaps rather than purchases. The visual language uses confident teal greens to differentiate from money-coloured competitors.
