Give Claude or ChatGPT access to public Pinterest posts: text, video, images and a Whisper transcript. One URL, no API key, no Pinterest login.

Updated: 2026-10-14

**Server URL: https://shortformkit.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no authentication). Add it as a custom connector in Claude or ChatGPT, or in Cursor, VS Code or Claude Code. It works with public Pins with video or images on Pinterest: read them, save the media and transcribe the speech.**

[Add to Cursor](https://cursor.com/en/install-mcp?name=shortformkit&config=eyJ1cmwiOiAiaHR0cHM6Ly9zaG9ydGZvcm1raXQuY29tL21jcCJ9) [Add to VS Code](https://insiders.vscode.dev/redirect/mcp/install?name=shortformkit&config=%7B%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A//shortformkit.com/mcp%22%7D)

## What your assistant can do with Pinterest

- **Read a post** (get_video_info): author, caption or text, duration and available video qualities.

- **Save the media** (download_media): the video as MP4, its audio as MP3, the image or a single frame at a timestamp. The link is valid for 15 minutes.

- **Transcribe the video** (transcribe_video): Whisper transcript with timestamps in 90+ languages, optional English translation.

- **Check upload specs** (social_video_specs): Pinterest video sizes, lengths and caption limits for 2026, with sources.

## Prompts that work

- «Transcribe the video in this Pinterest post and summarise it in three bullets: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/...»

- «Save the video of this post as MP4.»

- «What size and length should a video for Pinterest have in 2026?»

## Add it

**Claude:** Customize, Connectors, + Add, Add custom connector, paste https://shortformkit.com/mcp. **ChatGPT:** where your plan offers custom connectors (developer mode), add the same URL. **Claude Code:** claude mcp add --transport http shortformkit https://shortformkit.com/mcp. **Cursor or VS Code:** the buttons above, or { "url": "https://shortformkit.com/mcp" } in your MCP config.

## What it does not do

It only sees public posts, the same as anyone without logging in. It does not post, reply, search, read your feed, DMs or analytics; for that you need the Pinterest API with your own account. The same features without an assistant: [Pinterest downloader](https://shortformkit.com/pinterest-video-downloader/). All tools and platforms: [Shortform Kit MCP server](https://shortformkit.com/mcp-server/).

## How it works

1. **Copy the server URL** https://shortformkit.com/mcp
2. **Add it as a connector** In Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Code.
3. **Paste a Pinterest link** Ask for the transcript, the text or the video.
