Automate Costco

Turn the repetitive Costco work you do by hand (search a keyword, open a product) into a workflow Writ runs for you, on your own account, on a schedule or on demand.

why

Stop doing Costco by hand

The Costco tasks you repeat (search a keyword, open a product, read member price and stock) are exactly the kind of work a computer should do. But Costco has no general public API, and the flow runs behind a login and dynamic pages. Costco offers no general public API; member pricing and availability are only visible in an authenticated browser session.

Writ closes that gap. Record the Costco task once (or describe it to an AI session) and Writ runs it for you in a real browser, on your own account. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

Costco tasks Writ can run for you

Each of these is a real Costco action, captured into a workflow and run on your own account.

{ }search a keyword
{ }open a product
{ }read member price and stock
{ }track an order

Workflows extract structured fields such as member price, stock status, warehouse availability, instant savings along the way: typed data you can route anywhere.

Three ways to build your Costco automation

Pick whichever fits the task. All three produce the same workflow Writ can run for you.

✦Record itDo the Costco task once in a real browser (search a keyword, then open a product) and the recorder captures every step into a reusable workflow.
✦Describe it to AITell an AI session your goal on Costco in plain language; it drives the live page and builds the workflow for you, no recording needed.
✦Discover itLet API discovery watch Costco's own network calls as you browse, then turn the underlying requests into a fast, headless workflow.

Built on the same engine as the recorder and workflows, with 30+ step types.

Login, 2FA, and dynamic pages on Costco

The reason Costco is tedious to automate is the same reason most tools can't. Writ handles it.

Writ signs into your own Costco membership through a Persona to read member pricing and availability inside that session.

Run the Costco automation on your terms

On a schedule, on demand, or the instant something changes. You choose the trigger.

✦On a scheduleRun the Costco task every hour, every morning, or any cadence. No one has to remember to do it.
✦On demandTrigger a single run from the dashboard, a webhook, your code, or an AI agent, whenever you need it.
✦On a changeWatch Costco for price drop or restock and fire the automation the instant it happens.
  1. 1
    Build the Costco workflow once

    Record the task, describe it to AI, or discover it from the network. Writ captures each step, including login and 2FA, into a workflow you can edit.

  2. 2
    Run it on your terms

    Run it on demand, on a schedule, or fire it from a Monitor when Costco changes. It runs on your own Costco account, in a real browser.

  3. 3
    Call it from anything

    The same workflow is a REST endpoint at /v1/costco/run and an MCP tool, so your code, a no-code tool, or an AI agent can trigger the Costco automation too.

Trigger the Costco automation on a change

Monitor Costco for price drop, restock, new instant savings and run your workflow the moment it happens.

Monitors check as fast as every 10s (10s on Enterprise). A detected change becomes a trigger that runs your Costco automation in seconds. Monitor Costco ▸

Local / BYO agent

No compute charge. The agent runs on your hardware, so it can reach Costco even from an intranet or VPN-only network, and your AI keys never leave your machine.

Metered by running time at $0.12 per browser-hour, drawn from your plan’s included usage. No infrastructure to manage.

The same Costco automation is an API and an MCP tool

Automating Costco for yourself and calling it from software are the same workflow. Once you have it, publish it as a REST endpoint at/v1/costco/run and a matching MCP tool, so your code or an AI agent can trigger the Costco task too.

Automating Costco: questions

How do I automate Costco?
Record the Costco task once in the recorder (search a keyword, open a product, read member price and stock) or describe your goal to an AI session. Writ turns it into a workflow it can run for you on a schedule or on demand, on your own Costco account. It usually takes minutes, not a backend project.
Is it allowed to automate Costco this way?
Use Writ on your own Costco membership for actions you are entitled to take. Respect its Terms and purchase limits. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.
Does Costco automation work behind login and 2FA?
Writ signs into your own Costco membership through a Persona to read member pricing and availability inside that session. Writ handles TOTP and mailbox-OTP two-factor through Personas, so the automation runs inside your own authenticated Costco session.
Can I run the Costco automation without writing code?
Yes. Recording and AI sessions need no code at all. If you do want to trigger it from software, the same workflow is a REST endpoint and an MCP tool, but that is optional.
Where does it run, and what does it cost?
Run it on your own machine with a local or BYO agent for no compute charge, useful when Costco is only reachable from your network or VPN. Or run it on metered cloud at $0.12 per browser-hour, drawn from your plan’s included usage. Start free.
