Automated Pinterest Queue Gap Alerts
Every Thursday, WebRun opens Pinterest, reads the scheduled pins for the next two weeks, works out which days and which boards have nothing queued, leaves a Gmail draft briefing your designer on what is missing, and posts the gap list to your marketing Slack channel.
How do I make sure my Pinterest schedule never runs empty?
WebRun keeps your Pinterest queue full. Every Thursday it reads the pins scheduled across the next fourteen days, identifies the days and boards with nothing queued, drafts a brief to your designer in Gmail for approval, and posts the gap list to your marketing Slack channel.
- Empty days are caught with two weeks of lead time to fix them
- The designer gets one clear brief instead of scattered requests
- Quiet boards surface before the account loses momentum

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it publish pins for me?
No. WebRun only reads what is already scheduled and reports the gaps. It never creates a pin, never schedules one, and never publishes to your boards, so your Pinterest presence stays entirely in your hands.
Does the designer get emailed automatically?
No. The brief is left in Gmail Drafts for you to read, adjust, and send. WebRun writes the message and stops, so nothing reaches your designer until you press send.
How far ahead does it look?
Fourteen days by default, which is enough lead time to commission new creative. Tell WebRun a different window and it reads that range instead, using your own target pins per day as the benchmark.
