In 2025, Pinterest has taken e-commerce marketing to the next level with the launch of its AI-Powered Trend Detection tool—a groundbreaking upgrade to its existing Trends platform. By combining generative AI, visual search intelligence, and behavioral analytics, Pinterest now offers brands a crystal-clear view into what consumers want, before they even buy.
Unlike traditional keyword-based tools, this new system captures the full journey from inspiration to action—helping brands predict shopping behavior, create relevant content, and optimize product discovery in real time.
The Power Behind AI-Powered Trend Detection
Pinterest’s strength has always been its ability to turn user intent into action. With AI-Powered Trend Detection, it now taps into multiple layers of data:
- Search queries
- Pin saves and board curation
- Clicks to retailers and shopping behavior
This powerful integration allows brands to anticipate market shifts and plan campaigns around authentic, high-intent trends—making it one of the most advanced Pinterest e-commerce tools available.
1. Visual and Textual AI Analysis at Scale
Pinterest uses Visual Language Models (VLMs) to break down the content of images. This means:
- Fashion photos can be analyzed for fabric, fit, color, and style.
- Home decor Pins can be decoded for textures, themes, and moods.
- Beauty content can be tagged by ingredients, skin tone compatibility, and packaging styles.
This visual trend analysis enables Pinterest to detect rising patterns far beyond what text-based platforms can offer.
2. Extended Trend Duration for Long-Term Planning
Unlike fleeting trends on other social platforms, Pinterest trends last nearly twice as long. Why? Because users come here to plan, not just scroll. From weddings and travel to seasonal fashion and holiday gifting, Pinterest captures sustained interest.
This allows brands to create content and inventory strategies around trends that will actually stick—perfect for long-term campaign cycles and product rollouts.
3. Identification of Shoppable Trends
The AI engine doesn’t just spot what’s trending—it identifies which trends are strongly correlated with shopping behavior. This includes:
- Pins that lead to clicks on retailer sites
- High engagement with product Pins and collections
- Popular boards centered around a product category
This results in AI shopping trends that reflect both inspiration and commercial intent—bridging the gap between brand visibility and actual conversions.
4. Personalized Trend Forecasts for Advertisers
Every brand’s audience is unique. Pinterest’s new platform delivers personalized insights by industry, product category, and audience segment.
For instance, a beauty brand targeting Gen Z might receive trend visuals showing rising skincare interests (like “skin flooding” or “mushroom-based beauty”) along with engagement metrics, top Pins, and related keywords—all pulled from recent platform behavior.
This transforms product discovery on Pinterest into a strategic planning tool for performance marketing.
5. AI-Generated Creative Tools to Scale Visual Content
In addition to identifying trends, Pinterest has introduced auto-generated shoppable collages. These are AI-curated layouts that pull from a brand’s product catalog and arrange them into scroll-stopping visual boards—ready to be promoted or shared.
This visual content aligns directly with trends and makes it easier to act on insights fast, bringing AI-driven retail insights into your creative workflow.
Real-World Adoption and Impact
Retail giants like Macy’s and eBay are already leveraging this feature to:
- Optimize inventory around rising categories
- Time product launches with emerging trends
- Adjust ad creatives and messaging based on real-time cultural moments
It’s no longer about following the trend. With AI-Powered Trend Detection, it’s about predicting it—and getting there before your competition does.
