Page Vault Browser
Page Vault Browser captures web content for legal professionals who need to preserve material for legal use. Users visit a site, select capture settings, and the software scrolls through and records the page. It can capture webpages, social media, videos, and documents such as PDFs and Excel files; on supported social platforms, automations can move through profiles, expand comments and replies, and capture videos. Captures include a timestamp, URL, capturing account, and SHA256 hash, and affidavits are available. Page Vault says its patented remote browsing solution keeps the customer outside the chain of custody. Storage and downloads or exports have no limits or extra fees, according to the Browser page. Export options include PDF, ZIP, CSV, HTML source, OCR text, and eDiscovery load file; scheduled capture is also listed. Batch video and bulk capture availability varies by plan. The product runs as an extension, on macOS and Windows, and on the web. Plans require annual pricing and contracts, with listed login allowances differing by plan. Page Vault says it has served the legal industry since 2013 and is based in Miami, Florida.
