US Patent 9852377 Providing intelligent storage location suggestions

One or more embodiments of a content system provide machine-learned storage location recommendations for storing content items. Specifically, an online content management system can train a machine-learning model to identify a storage pattern from previously stored content items in a plurality of storage locations corresponding to a user account of a user. Training the machine-learning model includes training a plurality of classifiers for the plurality of storage locations. The online content management system uses the classifiers to determine whether a content item is similar to the content items in any of the storage locations, and based on the output of the classifiers, provides graphical elements indicating recommended storage locations within a graphical user interface. The user can select a graphical element to move the content item to the corresponding storage location.
