What this tool solves
Pinterest SEO lives or dies on tall imagery with readable typography. Teams drag landscape blog heroes onto Pins and wonder why engagement collapses — this page locks the correct 2∶3 canvas up front.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why 1000×1500 specifically?
Pinterest heavily favours 2∶3 vertical Pins for feed density. 1000×1500 is a crisp authoring resolution that scales cleanly when Pinterest serves responsive variants.
Can I use Instagram portrait dimensions instead?
4∶5 assets look fine socially but are not the same ratio — repurposing without reframing can letterbox or crop unpredictably on Pinterest. Use this dedicated preset when Pinterest is the destination.
Is resizing private?
Yes — your image is processed locally in the browser.
Will Pinterest compress my Pin?
Pinterest optimises delivery like other networks — starting from an appropriately sized master avoids double scaling.
Can I compress after resizing?
Use Compress JPG if your scheduling tool complains about upload size.
Does this work for Idea Pins?
Dimensions still guide frame sizing — creative tooling inside Pinterest handles motion; this page prepares still raster dimensions.
