🌐 The Web Archival Challenge

Web content is ephemeral—pages change, disappear, or get restructured constantly. For legal compliance, evidence preservation, and historical records, enterprises need reliable HTML to PDF conversion that captures the exact state of web pages at specific moments in time.

Enterprise Impact

Financial institutions must archive customer-facing web content for SEC 17a-4 compliance. A single missed page can result in $1M+ regulatory fines.
