Why connect Pinterest Ads to Codex?

Codex runs in your terminal, its IDE extension and scripts, so what it finds once can be rerun with codex exec instead of redone by hand. Connected through Lemonado, it reads your Pinterest Ads pins, saves, outbound clicks and CPA, so it can compare Pinterest and Meta for add-to-carts with today's numbers.

  • Your whole Pinterest Ads account

    Campaigns, ad groups and pins, ready to ask about.

  • Always today's numbers

    Impressions, saves and outbound clicks, synced from Pinterest Ads automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "Pinterest or Meta for carts?" use Pinterest Ads and Meta Ads, Google Ads at once.

What can Codex do with Pinterest Ads?

Codex reads your Pinterest Ads data from your terminal and turns one-off questions into commands you can rerun with codex exec.

Pull last week's Pinterest Ads numbers, save them to data/pinterest-weekly.csv and give me the codex exec command to refresh it.

Saved data/pinterest-weekly.csv. Run the same prompt with codex exec in a scheduled job and the file refreshes with each week's numbers.
