Overview
Archive.today captures a frozen snapshot of a web page — both a rendered image and a copy of the HTML — at the moment you submit it. It is useful for pages the Wayback Machine cannot capture well.
Features
- On-demand snapshots with a stable short URL
- Captures dynamic pages that resist other archivers
- Provides both a visual and text record
Typical election use cases
- Preserving social media posts and ads
- Creating redundancy alongside the Wayback Machine
- Citing a fixed snapshot in an evidence log
Limitations
Coverage and availability can vary. Always keep a local screenshot as an additional backup.
