# Save competitor profiles to Projects

> Save Pinterest competitor profiles into a Pinsearch Project.

Save competitor profiles to Projects when you want to keep your Pinterest research organized.

This is useful when you are comparing brands, building a content plan, researching a client niche, or collecting examples to revisit later.

## Save a profile from Profile Explorer

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open a profile report">
    Search for a profile in **Profile Explorer**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Add to Project">
    Click **Add to Project** in the profile header.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a Project">
    Select the Project where you want to save the profile.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Choose or create a Project

When the Project picker opens, you can save to an existing Project or create a new one.

</Frame>

To create a new Project while saving:

1. Click **New**.
2. Enter a Project name.
3. Confirm the new Project.
4. Add the profile to that Project.

Project names must be at least 3 characters long.

## Duplicate profiles

If the profile is already saved in the Project, Pinsearch does not save it again.

You may see a message letting you know the profile has already been added. Choose a different Project if you want the same profile in another research workspace.

## When to save a profile

Save a profile when you want to:

* Track a competitor in your niche.
* Compare several Pinterest accounts for a campaign.
* Keep profile metrics together with saved keywords and pins.
* Revisit strong profiles while planning future content.
* Build a client research file inside Pinsearch.

## Review saved profiles later

Saved profiles live inside the Project you chose.

Open the Project later to review saved competitor profiles alongside saved keywords and pins from the same research session.
