About Tailwind
Tailwind is bolting AI onto Pinterest scheduling while its feed runs mostly on blog content.
Tailwind's feed mixes Pinterest marketing how-tos with a few real product signals. The standouts are an MCP server that lets AI assistants manage Pinterest accounts via natural language, and beta results for Tailwind Turbo, a creator-curation feature it says made Pins far likelier to go viral. The bulk of recent entries are SEO and seasonal-strategy blog posts, not release notes.
