Inspiration
I wanted to turn my previous manual bartering project into something intelligent. Most people want to trade skills but don't know how to value them or where to start. SkillSync AI solves that.
What it does
It’s an AI-Powered Trade Consultant. You enter what you teach and what you want to learn, and the AI calculates a Compatibility Score, explains the Synergy, and builds a 4-week learning roadmap for both users.
How I built it
Language: Python
Framework: Streamlit (for a fast, professional UI)
AI: Groq AI
Styling: Custom CSS for a sleek dark-mode look.
Challenges I faced
I first used Google Gemini API key and hit major API 404 errors where the library couldn't find the models. Due to the Free tier in Gemini API key, it can't do advanced analysis, so I changed to Groq API key, so that it works well when deployed.
What I learned
I learned how to manage API Secrets securely and that a simple, working prototype is better than a complex, broken one.
What's next
Adding a global database so students from different colleges can find their perfect "Trade Partner" automatically.
