I'm an amateur photographer who spends a lot of time traveling outside of my day job. I always come home with a massive amount of photos, and I spend countless hours organizing and editing them. A few months ago I decided to try turning my photography into wall art to sell on the side, which introduced me to Print-On-Demand and Etsy.



So I spent a lot of time researching how to start an online store and how to actually get buyers to find my work. At first I used AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini to analyze my photos and generate titles, keywords, and descriptions (SEO). But I realized I was spending most of my time just reviewing AI-generated content, and I was never sure how accurate the output actually was.



That led me to build Wide Open, a platform that helps photographers generate SEO-ready listings, score the content, and streamline the whole listing process. It also generates promotional content for social media channels.



It's still in development, but the MVP works. You can try it here: [https://wide-open.app](https://wide-open.app) (the free plan gives you 5 photo analyses a month, no card needed).



I'd be incredibly grateful for any feedback or advice!
