InnoARCHIVE
InnoARCHIVE captures an organization’s online content as WARC archives while applying website governance checks. Teams can run scheduled or manual crawls with a static crawler or Playwright for JavaScript-heavy sites and single-page applications. Archived websites are available in a built-in viewer, searchable through indexed HTML, and browsable by snapshot date on a calendar. The product exports validated WARC files with traceable archive files for preservation and audits, and supports S3-compatible primary and secondary storage. Governance features include WCAG scans and reports, Internet.nl checks for HTTPS and DNSSEC, SSL certificate monitoring, uptime checks, broken-link checks, and configurable reports and alerts. Roles include super user, admin, and client across organizations and websites, with system and website audit logs. Public social media channels can also be captured with checksums and timestamps. Access is by invitation or arrangement, and pricing is on request.
