Summary
Pinterest’s throwing down the gauntlet with new AI tools designed to revolutionize advertising — no more just keyword searches. Their beta “Business Assistant” in Ads Manager helps brands spot trends and craft hyper-relevant ads, while the global MCP protocol acts as an AI bridge connecting Pinterest’s data to advertisers’ existing tools. The company’s betting big on context over search, leveraging its planning-driven audience for smarter, personalized ads. On the creative front, Performance+ AI picks top-performing ad variations, boosting clicks by 7.5% in tests. And in the US, “Ask Pinterest” is testing a conversational, visual shopping experience that turns discovery into action — all part of Pinterest’s bold move to become the AI-powered hub for inspiration and intent.
