About ArchiveBox
ArchiveBox is a free, open-source web archiving tool you host yourself. It ingests URLs from bookmarks, browser history, RSS feeds and other sources, then preserves each page in multiple formats including HTML, PDF, screenshots, media files and WARC archives. The result is a searchable personal archive that survives link rot and site shutdowns. It suits researchers, journalists, archivists and anyone who wants a durable local copy of the web content they rely on.
