What they did
At signup the only ask is the user's website. Within about a minute the app scans the site and generates a few Pinterest pins from its own images for the user to review and edit. Only then does onboarding ask for settings (pins per day, which pages, which boards), after which it generates a full month of pins in advance, so the core value (lots of pins scheduled in minutes) is shown right away.

“as soon as person signs up, I ask him to add a website.”
“In around a minute, I'll scan your website, understand what it's about, and create a few Pinterest pins for you to take a look at.”
“the very simple value for person is presented right away: that he can get a lot of pins scheduled for him in a few minutes.”
