How to use the Pinterest Ad Library?

Want to see what a brand is advertising on Pinterest? Start with the Pinterest Ads Repository. That's Pinterest's official Ad Library.

I like it for checking creative and audience details. Watch the country and date filters: narrow settings can hide results.

1. Choose a country and date range

Select the ad's delivery country and your date range.

On 17 September 2026, the default dates were 12–17 September. Widen the range to find older ads.

The selector included Brazil, Norway and Türkiye alongside EU countries. Brazil returned ads; the United States wasn't listed. Coverage isn't worldwide and can change.

2. Search for the advertiser

Enter the brand in the advertiser-name field and search.

Start with all categories, genders and ages. Then narrow the filters to compare things like a fashion brand's creative across age groups.

3. Read the ad details

Click Details on an ad.

A Brazil ad checked for this update showed delivery on 12–14 September, age and gender fields, and reach of 0–10,000. Some fields were blank or “None”. The record may expire.

Detail	What I use it for
Creative and copy	Note the hook, offer and visual style.
Advertiser	Check that I'm looking at the right brand.
Date range	Understand when this particular ad appeared.
Country and audience fields	Read the available delivery and targeting context.
Reach information	Understand the reported scale, including whether it's a range.

Reach and running time don't tell you whether an ad is profitable.

Why are ads missing from my search?

Check these first:

1. Country: does the repository cover the market you're looking for?
2. Dates: did the ad run outside your selected window?
3. Advertiser: are you searching for the right business identity?
4. Filters: have category, age or gender filters removed the results?

No results doesn't mean the brand isn't advertising.

How long do ads stay in the repository?

Pinterest's 2025 transparency report says EU ads are available for the previous year. Other countries may have different retention.

Keep the ad's link, date and your notes. Save a reference image where allowed, since links can expire.

Can I save Pinterest ads with Swipekit?

Swipekit doesn't currently save Pinterest ads. Here's the supported-source list.

For Meta ads, see our Facebook Ad Library guide and downloader.

Turn the research into something useful

Pick one competitor and one question. What offers are they testing? Which hooks keep showing up? Keep your notes with the ads.
