Made to Spark vs Tailwind: the short answer

Tailwind is a Pinterest suite sold as three products: scheduling and creation, keyword research, and engagement boosts, each priced per Pinterest account and metered in credits. If you mainly want more fresh Pinterest pins going out, Made to Spark gives you scheduling with no per-pin meter, unlimited template pins from your own photos, and several sites on one plan.

How the pin generator works

What customers say

“I’m working on a fashion blog and was using multiple tools to create pins that didn’t really match the standards I had in mind. Made to Spark came at just the right moment. I had tried a ton of tools to create pins but none match the quality of pins made by Made to Spark. One very impressive thing when using this tool is how quick Paul helps when I need help with an extra feature or get stuck using the tools. His support when using this tool is second to none.”
Daisy K Daisy K Fashion Blogger
“Hi my name is Linda and I am an Amazon Associate posting pins to Pinterest. Madetospark is an awesome product. Very intuitive to use, and trust me I am not the smartest cookie in the bunch. However, Paul has been an amazing help. If you are in doubt, I would definitely recommend Madetospark to anyone who is generating pins.”

Questions about Made to Spark and Tailwind

How is Made to Spark different from Tailwind?

Tailwind sells three per-account products: Pin Scheduling & Creation, Pinterest SEO and Pinterest Engagement, with scheduling, SmartPin and keyword searches all drawing from one monthly credit pool. Made to Spark focuses on making and scheduling Pinterest pins: several pins per page from your own photos, scheduling with no per-pin credits, and several workspaces on one plan.

How many pins can I schedule?

Up to 30 pins a day on Solo, which is about 900 a month, with no credits used for scheduling. Tailwind Pin Scheduling & Creation includes 300 credits a month for one Pinterest account, and each scheduled pin uses 1 credit. Extra credits cost $10 per 100.

Can I manage more than one site?

Yes. Solo includes 5 workspaces. Each workspace has its own brand settings and Pinterest connection, so you can keep sites or shops separate.

Does Made to Spark have Tailwind Communities?

No. If sharing pins through Tailwind Communities is important to you, Tailwind is the better fit for that part.

Does Tailwind make pins too?

Yes. Tailwind Create designs pins, Ghostwriter writes copy and images, and SmartPin drafts pins each week from your URLs. The difference is what it costs to send them out: on Tailwind every scheduled pin uses a credit from the same 300-a-month pool, while Made to Spark includes scheduling and unlimited template pins with any subscription.

Can I pin my whole blog at once?

Yes, on the Solo and Growth plans. Paste your sitemap or a list of links and Bulk Pins makes pins for each page, then spreads them over the next 30 days when you approve the batch.

How much does Made to Spark cost?

Plans start at $12 a month, or about $9 a month billed yearly. Every plan includes pin creation, pin copy and Pinterest scheduling. Larger plans add more AI credits, more pins per day and bulk pin creation.

Can I try Made to Spark before subscribing?

Yes. Create an account and test pin creation, AI images and Pinterest scheduling before choosing a plan. No credit card is required to create your account.
