Multi-Archive Search Tool

Query multiple web archives simultaneously for a specific URL.

How to Use This Tool

To combat Link Rot, it is rarely sufficient to check just one archive. The Wayback Machine might be blocked by robots.txt, while archive.today might have captured the page perfectly.

This tool generates direct queries for multiple archives, saving you time when hunting for a lost URL or a specific Legal Citation.

Query Archives

Supported Archives

  • Wayback Machine: The largest, but struggles with SPAs.
  • archive.today: Best for bypassing paywalls and rendering JS.
  • Ghost Archive: Independent archive, strong on video content.
  • Memento Time Travel: Utilizes the Memento Protocol to query dozens of smaller institutional archives simultaneously.

Tool FAQ

Does this tool save the page?
