Pinterest's AI now turns beauty Pins into action plans

TechCrunch
Pinterest launches Beauty Guides, an AI feature that converts beauty Pins into actionable salon plans with terminology, costs, and timing.

Summary

Pinterest has launched a new feature called "Beauty Guides" that uses its visual intelligence and generative AI technology, Pinterest Intelligence, to transform beauty-related Pins into actionable plans for salon visits. When users tap the "Get the Guide" button, the feature translates saved hairstyle, color, nail shape, and finish Pins into professional terms like "balayage," "root melt," or "almond nails" that stylists use. The guides also provide practical details such as the time each service may take, price ranges, and maintenance requirements like how often to trim or touch up. This feature aims to make AI useful in everyday life by helping users communicate more effectively with salon professionals and plan their visits with better information.
