Sports Social Media Content Automation Platform

Project Title Developer Needed to Build Automated Sports Social Media Content Platform Project Description We are looking for an experienced developer to build a scalable platform that automates the creation of professional sports social media content, replacing most of the manual work currently done by a designer. Our company works with football players and we regularly need to create high-quality visual content for different types of events, such as: Pre-match announcements, goals, assists, transfers, contract renewals, player presentations, man of the match, team of the week, sponsorship announcements and other football-related content. The goal is to have a platform with predefined premium layouts/templates where we only need to select or insert basic information, and the system automatically generates the final image or video. Key Features: 1. Admin Dashboard: Manage players, photos, clubs, logos, colors, templates and event types. 2. Template Control: Predefined premium templates editable only by our team for future updates. 3. Automatic Image/Video Generation: Generate both images and short videos based on event type and format. 4. Approval Workflow: Ensure nothing is published without review. The app must generate a preview first for approval or rejection before publishing. 5. Social Media Formats: Support Instagram posts, stories, reels/videos with potential expansion to other platforms. 6. Automatic Publishing/Scheduling: Publish or schedule content automatically through official Instagram/Facebook APIs after approval. 7. Mobile-Friendly Interface: Enable quick content creation or approval from phones. 8. Brand Consistency: Ensure all outputs maintain a professional and premium look aligned with our sports agency identity. 9. MVP Approach: Develop in phases starting with databases (player/club/logo), predefined templates, automatic image generation, preview/approval and export; video generation and publishing can be added later. 10. Developer Profile: Require experience in databases, dashboards, media generation, template systems and social media API integrations. Workflow: 1. Select player 2. Select event type 3. Select format (Instagram post/story/reel) 4. System automatically generates content using predefined templates 5. Preview generated content 6. Approve/reject/edit information 7. Publish/schedule via social media APIs Important Notes: - The current budget applies only to the first MVP phase of development and not the full platform with advanced features. - The first MVP will focus on: - Admin dashboard - Player database - Club/logo database - Uploading player photos and club logos - A few predefined premium templates - Automatic image generation for Instagram post and story formats - Preview and approval workflow - Export/download of generated images - Video generation, automatic publishing/scheduling features will be developed in later phases after the MVP is functional. - Open to a phased development approach starting with a small paid demo or MVP before committing to the full project. - Preference will be given to freelancers who can demonstrate real examples of similar work involving template-based image generation, dashboards, databases and media automation. Final Goal: To build a complete template-based automation platform for a football agency capable of generating and publishing professional social media graphics and videos with minimal manual work.
