What it is

Pinterest's crawler. It indexes pages so people can find them on Pinterest and re-reads product pages to keep price and title on a Pin current. Pinterest states that content it crawls is not used to train their Canvas image generation model.

What blocking it costs you

Pins pointing at your site go stale — wrong prices, dead links — and new content stops being indexed. For a retailer this is one of the more expensive blocks on the list.
