How it gets flagged
Automated checks scan pin images for generative-model signatures at upload and attach a visible info panel when a match is found.
For Pinterest creators
Keep your pins in distribution, not under a warning label.
Pinterest flags AI-assisted pins with an info panel and pushes them down the feed, which quietly kills click-through on affiliate and shop pins. The Forge gets your image ready before you pin it.
The risk
A pin that starts flagged rarely catches up.
Pinterest runs uploaded pins through automated image-authenticity checks and applies a may be AI-generated info panel when the signature matches known generative-model patterns.
What happens when caught
Lower placement in home feed and search, a visible warning label that reduces click-through and saves, and for shop or affiliate pins, a direct hit to conversion.
Why it matters
Pinterest traffic compounds over months. A pin that starts flagged rarely catches up to one that never was.
Detectors this page targets
Calibrated against the detectors that matter here.
These are the detectors most relevant to visual-content platforms like Pinterest, the ones built into moderation pipelines and the ones outside reviewers use to check a pin. The Forge calibrates against all of them.
Sightengine
A visual-content moderation vendor built into image-heavy platforms.
Winston AI
Focused on authenticity checks, popular with publishers and content curators.
TruthScan
A general-purpose scanner outside reviewers and brands reach for.

Questions
Before you start.
Will this help a pin that is already flagged?
Re-upload the processed image as a new pin rather than editing the flagged one; the original signal stays attached to that existing pin.
Does this work for product and shop pins?
Yes. Product photography, lifestyle shots, and affiliate images all go through the same Forge workflow.
Do I need any technical skill to use this?
No. Upload or generate an image, run it through the Forge, and download the result.
