Our take
Since 2006, Mixbook has been offering customers the ability to create photo-customized products online. They offer the familiar array of cards, photobooks, and prints, but what is unique is that they have been one of the most persistently high-ranking companies for this service over recent years.
The market is a fairly crowded one, with long-standing competitors like Shutterfly being joined by startups like Popsa and Sokbook. But it remains a lucrative one: reports suggest that the rise of digital photography is accompanied by a greater value being placed on creating physical records of these images.
Whilst Mixbook is sticking to a fairly traditional selection of products, the company is enriching its offerings through features such as Mixbook Movies (a video format for its offering) and Story Mode (prompt-based photo book creation). These enhancements should help the company stand out and take a good slice of the growing personalised gifts market, which is expected to exceed $65 billion by 2033.
