Systems and methods for automatically creating a photo-based project based on photo analysis and image metadata

A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing executable instructions, which when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform a method for automatically creating a photo-based project based on photo analysis and image metadata over a communications network, the storage medium comprising executable instructions to:

• establish a client-server connection between the server and a user-device connected to the communication network;
• receive a plurality of images from the user-device, read embedded metadata from the plurality of images, and store said plurality of images in the data repository;
• perform user analysis on an expected user of the photo-based project based on data from a social media platform;
• perform photo analysis on the plurality of images in the data repository to determine a visual content and relevant metadata in the images based at least on the images and the user analysis;
• customize the photo-based project automatically by performing one or more automatic customization actions based on the visual content in and the relevant metadata in the plurality of images;
• place the plurality of images automatically in one or more particular page layouts of the photo-based project based on the customization performed;
• and
• generate a printed product comprising the plurality of images based on the customization performed.
