Use This Tool Free →Why Use This Tool?
- Create tamper-evident website evidence bundles (snapshot + metadata + hash manifest) you can verify later.
- Document redirect chains, status codes, and key headers for stronger context and provenance.
- Improve replayability with smart inlining and absolute-link rewriting for self-contained HTML snapshots.
- Scale investigations with bulk capture queues, retries, and CSV/JSONL exports for tracking.
How It Works
Paste one URL (or multiple URLs, one per line) and click “Capture”.
Download the evidence bundle: HTML snapshot, metadata JSON, and SHA-256 manifest (plus optional share link).
Use the built-in “Verify” view to confirm hashes and integrity before publishing or submitting.
FAQ
What exactly is included in an evidence capture bundle?
Each capture produces a snapshot HTML file, a metadata JSON (timestamp, final URL, redirect trail, status codes, selected headers), and a SHA-256 hash manifest to verify integrity.
Is this legally admissible proof?
This tool helps preserve verifiable technical evidence (timestamps, redirects, headers, hashes), but admissibility depends on your jurisdiction and chain-of-custody requirements. For high-stakes matters, consult counsel and follow your organization’s evidence procedures.
Why do some pages not capture perfectly?
Some sites rely heavily on client-side JavaScript, block automated fetches, or require authentication. When that happens, use the “Print Capture” fallback to generate a timestamped, printer-friendly page for consistent OS-level “Save as PDF” capture.
Do you store my captures?
By default, captures are generated for download in your browser session. If you choose “Share”, an optional private short link can store the package with an expiration timer to support collaboration while preserving custody.
