Use PinSuite from Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor

Connect PinSuite to your AI assistant once, then save Pinterest boards, Instagram posts and whole web pages straight from the chat, with no tab switching and no extension prompts. Setup takes about a minute. Here is the whole thing, start to finish.

From a fresh account to saving a board by typing one sentence. Prefer to read it?

Why use PinSuite from an AI assistant?

Save without context-switching

Browsing Pinterest in a research chat? Tell Claude "save this board to my library" with no tab-switching and no extension prompts.

Bulk operations as one sentence

"Save these five boards and export them all to PDFs" is one MCP conversation instead of ten clicks across two apps.

Built on open standards

PinSuite exposes a standard MCP server with OAuth 2.1. Works with any compliant client today, and any new client tomorrow.

How it works

1

Sign in to PinSuite

Free account works. Paid is only required for downloads and exports.

2

Add the connector in your AI tool

Paste https://pinsuite.app/mcp in Claude's connector list or run claude mcp add.

3

Use it from any chat

Your assistant can now save URLs, browse your library, and queue exports on your behalf.

What your AI can do

Ten MCP tools covering the core PinSuite workflow.

Tool What it does Plan
save_url Save a Pinterest pin / board / section / profile or Instagram post. Free
preview_url Preview the media at a URL without saving. Free
confirm_save Save selected items from a previous preview. Free
list_library Browse your saved library with search + filter. Free
get_collection Get a board's metadata and its pins. Free
export_collection Queue a board export as zip / csv / html / json / pdf. Paid
get_export_status Poll an export and get the download URL when ready. Free
get_usage Check quota usage and current plan. Free
get_subscription See plan, status, renewal date. Free
who_am_i Confirm which PinSuite account is connected. Free
Private and secret boards are the one exception Your assistant reaches PinSuite over the internet, not from inside your browser, so Pinterest will not show it anything you have not made public. Use the browser extension for those.

One MCP URL, many clients

Claude Desktop · Claude.ai

URL: https://pinsuite.app/mcp

Approves access via the OAuth consent screen.

ChatGPT

  1. Open Settings → Connectors. ChatGPT moves this menu about as often as Claude does. If it is not there, look for wherever apps or connectors live.
  2. Choose to add a connector, and pick the option for a custom or MCP server.
  3. Paste https://pinsuite.app/mcp
  4. Approve on the PinSuite screen that opens. Same sign-in as Claude, so there is no API key and nothing to copy across.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http pinsuite https://pinsuite.app/mcp

Codex CLI

codex mcp add --transport http pinsuite https://pinsuite.app/mcp
codex mcp login pinsuite

What's in the video

The same steps in writing, in case you would rather read than watch, or you are somewhere you cannot play sound.

  1. Sign in to PinSuite A free account is enough to connect, and enough to start saving: the Free plan covers your first 25 saves. A paid plan is what unlocks exports and saving beyond that.
  2. Open your connector settings in Claude In Claude, go to Settings, then Connectors, then "Add custom connector". This screen is inside Claude, not inside PinSuite, which trips most people up the first time.
  3. Paste the PinSuite address The address is https://pinsuite.app/mcp. Paste it into the URL field and confirm. Claude will send you to a PinSuite permission screen.
  4. Approve access The permission screen shows what Claude is being allowed to do with your library. Approve it, and you are sent back to Claude with the connector live. Your PinSuite password is never shared with Claude.
  5. Try it in a chat Paste a Pinterest board link into any chat and ask Claude to save it to your library. The board appears in PinSuite. From then on you can also ask it to search your library, pull up a board, or queue an export as a ZIP, PDF, CSV, HTML or JSON file.

Using something other than Claude? The same address works in ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex CLI and Cursor, and the setup for each is listed above. If a connection will not stick, the connection troubleshooting guide covers what usually causes it. Full technical detail is in the developer documentation.

Connect in under a minute

All you need is a free PinSuite account, which covers your first 25 saves. Exports and saving beyond the free cap unlock with a paid plan.
