Public use-case statement

BrandMilo helps authorized Etsy sellers transform their own active listing information into editable Pinterest Pin drafts. Users connect a Pinterest business account through OAuth, retrieve their boards, review the selected image, title, description, alt text, product link, and destination board, and explicitly approve immediate or scheduled publication. The service uses official APIs and does not collect Pinterest passwords or cookies.

Availability

Public status: Private beta — Pinterest Trial. Access tier: Pinterest Trial Access. Pinterest Trial Access is approved. Limited invited usage only. Trial Pins and boards follow current Pinterest sandbox / Trial limits (often visible only to their creator). That is not Standard production publishing. Standard Access is not granted. Production Connect stays limited to selected test workspaces after credentials are configured. Status is derived from product readiness, provider review state, access tier, and environment — not a standalone marketing flag.
