Pinterest creators and the hard part of sponsorship scouting
This page is about sponsorship scouting for Pinterest creators: the options you actually have, what each one costs, and which one we would pick. Mamba Labs builds Apify actors, and Creator Finder is the one named below that covers Pinterest creators.

The problem
Pinterest creators skew sponsorship scouting, for a reason specific to them. Start from this: Pinterest creators drive traffic to a site more than they collect an audience on the platform itself, and sponsorship scouting follows. Worth knowing about Pinterest creators, since sponsorship scouting inherits it: monthly viewers and followers are different numbers, and profiles show the larger one. There is 1 runnable example of sponsorship scouting for Pinterest creators below.
Traditional Search Tools
- Pinterest Trends, for Pinterest creators. Free, official, and it shows what the audience is planning rather than who has it.
- Modash. A large searchable creator database across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube with audience filters. Strong discovery, sold on a monthly subscription that suits a team running campaigns every month.
- TikTok One and the other platform marketplaces. Official, free to browse, and limited to creators who opted in. The ones who did not sign up are invisible there.
- An influencer agency. They bring a roster and the relationships, and charge a retainer or a share of the fee. Worth it for a launch, expensive as a standing way to find people.
- Search the platforms yourself. Type the niche into TikTok, Instagram and YouTube search, open every profile that looks right, and copy the handle and follower count into a sheet. About three minutes a creator, and the results depend on what each app decides to show you.
How we would run it
- Start with one of Pinterest creators you already know, so a wrong sponsorship scouting answer is obvious rather than plausible.
- Run Creator Finder across your list of Pinterest creators, which carries 1 ready made setup for sponsorship scouting.
- Read ten rows of sponsorship scouting on Pinterest creators by hand before you trust the rest of the list.
