Pinterest is a San Francisco public company (NYSE: PINS) started in 2010 by Ben Silbermann, Paul Sciarra and Evan Sharp. LinkedIn and the newsroom treat it as a visual search and discovery product: people save images and ideas to boards, then use those boards to plan and shop. The official line is to bring everyone the inspiration to create a life they love. Users come for recipes, home, style and other life moments, not a noisy social feed. Official About says more than 600 million monthly active users worldwide come to search, save and shop ideas. The newsroom has also reported hundreds of millions of monthly users and that more than half of users see Pinterest as a place to shop. Money comes mainly from ads next to high-intent browsing. Headquarters is 651 Brannan Street, San Francisco. LinkedIn lists software development. Founded 2010.
