Scheduling Tools
What is the best Pinterest scheduler?
There's no single best — the right scheduler depends on whether you're curating others' content, publishing your own, or generating pins with AI. The established options are Tailwind, Later, Planoly, Buffer, and Hootsuite. AI-first alternatives include Supapin, Pin Generator, BlogToPin, and Postcards.
Established schedulers
- Tailwind — the most mature option. Best for power users and bloggers running large catalogs. Pinterest-specific features like Tribes and Smart Loop are unique to it.
- Later — multi-platform (Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, more). Best if Pinterest is one of several networks you publish to.
- Planoly — visual content calendar with a strong grid view. Best for product and lifestyle brands.
- Buffer — broad social scheduler with a clean UI. Pinterest is one of many supported networks.
- Hootsuite — agency-focused with team and approval workflows. Higher price point.
AI-first alternatives
- Supapin — generates pin images and copy from your blog or store URL, then schedules through the official API
- Pin Generator — focus on AI-generated pin images for bloggers
- BlogToPin — pulls from your RSS feed and generates pins automatically
- Postcards — design and schedule pins in one flow
How to pick
- Need AI to generate the images themselves? Go AI-first.
- Need community or content-sharing features? Tailwind.
- Need to also schedule Instagram/TikTok? Later or Buffer.
- Need to manage many client accounts? Hootsuite or an agency-tier plan.
