Turn Zillow into a REST + MCP endpoint
Writ turns the Zillow actions you already do in a browser into a callable REST endpoint your software (and your AI agents) can call.
curl -X POST https://api.usewrit.app/v1/zillow/run \
-H "Authorization: Bearer wt_8f2c...a91" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "input": { "query": "your search term" } }' No Zillow API yet? Build one in minutes
Record the Zillow task once (search an area, then open a listing) and call it as a REST endpoint and an MCP tool. No backend project, no waiting on Zillow to ship an API.
- 1Record the Zillow task once
Open the recorder and search an area on Zillow in a real browser. Writ captures each step, including login and 2FA, into a reusable workflow.
- 2Publish it as an endpoint
One click turns the workflow into a callable REST endpoint at /v1/zillow/run and a matching MCP tool. Inputs become a typed schema.
- 3Call it from anything
Call Zillow 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.
Zillow doesn't give you the endpoint you need
Zillow has no general public API for the storefront actions most teams need. Zillow retired its public API for most listing data; there is no general API for the search and listing detail data agents commonly need.
Writ closes that gap. Record the Zillow task once (or describe it to an AI session) and publish it as a REST endpoint at /v1/zillow/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.
What you can call on Zillow
Each operation below is a real Zillow action recorded into a workflow and exposed as a typed endpoint.
Returns structured fields such as list price, beds/baths, square footage, days on market: typed JSON, not raw page text.
A real Zillow endpoint, authorized with a wt_ key
POST your inputs, get structured output. Authenticate every call with a scoped wt_ key.
curl -X POST https://api.usewrit.app/v1/zillow/run \
-H "Authorization: Bearer wt_8f2c...a91" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "input": { "query": "your search term" } }' import requests
r = requests.post(
"https://api.usewrit.app/v1/zillow/run",
headers={"Authorization": "Bearer wt_8f2c...a91"},
json={"input": {"query": "your search term"}},
)
print(r.json()["output"]) {
"run_id": "run_zill_7b21",
"status": "succeeded",
"output": {
"list_price": "...",
"beds_baths": "...",
"square_footage": "..."
}
} Also an MCP tool. The same workflow is exposed as an MCP tool your AI agent can call. See Zillow MCP tools, or browse all MCP clients.
Login, 2FA, and dynamic pages on Zillow
The reason Zillow has no usable API is the same reason it's hard to automate. Writ handles it.
Most Zillow listing data is public, so no login is required; Writ renders the page in real Chromium to capture data that loads dynamically.
Three ways to build your Zillow endpoint
Pick whichever fits the task. All three produce the same callable workflow.
Built on the same engine as the recorder and workflows.
Trigger your Zillow endpoint on a change
Monitor Zillow for new listing, price change, status change to pending 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 Zillow ▸
Free on your own machine, or on cloud
Local / BYO agent
No compute charge. The agent runs on your hardware, so it can reach Zillow even from an intranet or VPN-only network, and your AI keys never leave your machine.
Writ cloud
Metered by running time at $0.12 per browser-hour, drawn from your plan’s included usage. No infrastructure to manage.
