Turn Best Buy into a REST + MCP endpoint

Writ turns the Best Buy actions you already do in a browser into a callable REST endpoint your software (and your AI agents) can call.

Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

No Best Buy API yet? Build one in minutes

Record the Best Buy task once (search a keyword, then open a product) and call it as a REST endpoint and an MCP tool. No backend project, no waiting on Best Buy to ship an API.

  1. 1
    Record the Best Buy task once

    Open the recorder and search a keyword on Best Buy in a real browser. Writ captures each step, including login and 2FA, into a reusable workflow.

  2. 2
    Publish it as an endpoint

    One click turns the workflow into a callable REST endpoint at /v1/bestbuy/run and a matching MCP tool. Inputs become a typed schema.

  3. 3
    Call it from anything

    Call Best Buy from your code, a no-code tool, or an AI agent. Run it on your own machine for free, or on metered cloud.

Read the REST API docs, see what's possible on workflows, or search for another site. Free to start. See pricing.

gap ▸ no public api 02
03
why

Best Buy doesn't give you the endpoint you need

Best Buy has an API, but Best Buy's Products API needs an approved key and omits the live in-store availability and cart flow that buyers care about.

Writ closes that gap. Record the Best Buy task once (or describe it to an AI session) and publish it as a REST endpoint at /v1/bestbuy/run and a matching MCP tool. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

Login, 2FA, and dynamic pages on Best Buy

The reason Best Buy has no usable API is the same reason it's hard to automate. Writ handles it.

Best Buy product and price pages are public; Writ renders them in real Chromium to capture availability that loads dynamically, and can sign into your account for cart actions.

Three ways to build your Best Buy endpoint

Pick whichever fits the task. All three produce the same callable workflow.

Record itOpen the recorder, search a keyword on Best Buy once in a real browser, and Writ captures every step into a workflow.
Describe itTell an AI session your goal on Best Buy in plain language, and it drives the page to build the workflow for you.
Discover itLet API discovery watch Best Buy's own network calls as you browse, then turn the underlying requests into a fast workflow.

Built on the same engine as the recorder and workflows.

Trigger your Best Buy endpoint on a change

Monitor Best Buy for price drop, restock, in-store availability and fire this endpoint the instant something changes.

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

Best Buy API questions

Does Best Buy have an API?
Best Buy has an API, but Best Buy's Products API needs an approved key and omits the live in-store availability and cart flow that buyers care about. Writ gives you a callable /v1/bestbuy/run endpoint that runs the real Best Buy flow in a browser and returns structured JSON.
Is there a ready-made Best Buy API I can use?
Record the Best Buy task once in the recorder (search a keyword, then open a product) or describe it to an AI session. Writ turns it into a callable REST endpoint and MCP tool. It usually takes minutes, not a backend project.
Is it allowed to automate Best Buy this way?
Use Writ on your own Best Buy account and on public listings you have the right to access. Respect Best Buy's Terms and purchase limits. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.
Does this work with Best Buy login and 2FA?
Best Buy product and price pages are public; Writ renders them in real Chromium to capture availability that loads dynamically, and can sign into your account for cart actions. Writ handles TOTP and mailbox-OTP two-factor through Personas, so the endpoint runs inside your own authenticated session.
Can I run it on my own machine?
Yes. Run it on a local or BYO agent for no compute charge — useful when Best Buy is only reachable from your own network or VPN, and free on every plan. Or run it on metered cloud at $0.12 per browser-hour, drawn from your plan’s included usage.
