$PINS my thoughts on the company
Pros
- Huge images database for ai companies to feed models
- 50% gen z users
- Ban on social media in Australia didn’t include Pinterest
- Interesting opportunity to make it a shopping app (cooperation with shopify would be great)
- Good balance sheet (better than snap)
Cons
- no long tail of advertising (lack of diversity of ads, for example I was searching of turntable images and got ads of women’s underwear)
- Too many ads (low quality and low profit ones)
- Inconsistent ui/ux (when I search for similar objects i sometimes get option to buy such item, sometimes I don’t. I’d rather prefer to see info ‚no similar items to buy’ than nothing.
