Artist Fine Art Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Perfect before ai" March 15, 2025 4.0 The best app for literally anyone but the slow influx of ai images is taking away from the experience. Pros The variety of images and reference photos available for artists to work with and how there's something for everyone here. Cons The slow domination of ai images that are now everywhere and in every search you put in, before you could only see work of real artists and photographers and people, now it's images generated by a lifeless bot. Switched from [Google Chrome](https://www.capterra.com/p/228985/Chrome/) Because Pinterest provides images that are aesthetic and useful whereas Google provided generic images from anywhere and everywhere.

Cons What I like least about Pinterest for my real estate business is that it can take time to see consistent results and engagement. The platform also requires regular posting and high-quality visuals to stay competitive, which can be time-consuming. Additionally, it’s sometimes harder to convert Pinterest users into serious buyers compared to other platforms. Review Source Destiny C.
