A place to find the next battle. And build the scene around it.
While visiting another city, I wanted to watch a rap battle and could not find where one was happening. That small discovery problem became the starting point for RapTrak.
Finding an event is only one part of the scene. Crews need a way to manage their work, and MCs need a public place to show their accomplishments.
I built the product across four journeys: finding nearby battles, crew management, MC profiles and accomplishments, and administration and moderation. I owned the product direction, design, mobile app and backend.
All four journeys are functional. The app has not been publicly released: community preparation and time alongside other work have shaped the launch timing.
Functional does not mean publicly launched. No adoption, app-store availability or community-impact metrics are claimed. Detailed architecture and implementation decisions will be documented after a dedicated source review.
