What Gets Saved

When you save a Pinterest pin, we capture:

  • High-quality pin image
  • Pin title and description
  • Original source link (when available)
  • Pinner information
  • Color palette extraction
  • Style and mood analysis

Pinterest vs Inspire.Me Boards

Pinterest boards are great for quick saves within the Pinterest ecosystem.

Inspire.Me boards let you:

  • Combine Pinterest with TikTok, YouTube, and other sources
  • Search across everything with smart tags
  • Add personal notes about why things inspire you
  • Keep all your inspiration in one place

Tips

  • Describe what catches your eye - "love the negative space composition"
  • Note the application - "reference for living room color scheme"
  • Combine sources - A Pinterest aesthetic + a TikTok tutorial = project inspiration

Troubleshooting

Pin not loading? Some pins link to deleted content. We'll save what's available.

Can't share from Pinterest? Make sure you're sharing the pin itself, not just the board.
