About Pinterest Search Scraper
Need to pull fresh data from Pinterest without the manual hassle? I built this Pinterest Search Scraper because I got tired of copying and pasting. It automates the tedious part, letting you collect pins, titles, descriptions, and links directly from search results. You also get image URLs and engagement stats, which are gold for understanding what's actually resonating. I use it mainly for three things. First, for trend analysis—seeing what visuals and topics are popping off in a niche before anyone else. Second, for lead generation; if you're in e-commerce or marketing, those pins are packed with user intent and inspiration you can tap into. And third, for competitor tracking. Run a few searches for your competitors or related keywords, and you can see their top-performing content in bulk, which helps you figure out your own strategy. It's built on Apify, so it runs in the cloud and handles the data extraction cleanly. You just configure your search query and how many results you want, then get structured data back as a dataset or file. It saves hours of work, and the data you get is much more consistent than doing it by hand. Perfect for marketers, researchers, or shop owners who need real Pinterest data, not just guesses.
