Abstract

A method for generating a graphical user interface (GUI) can include receiving a first user request to log in to a session of an application. The method can further include obtaining first user characteristic information, including one or more user psychological information, user environmental information, or user lifestyle information. The method can further include selecting a first set of GUI elements to be presented to the user during the session, wherein the first set of GUI elements are selected based on the first user characteristic information. The method can further include generating a GUI that includes the first set of GUI elements and transmitting the GUI to a user device for display during the session.
