    • Can I capture dynamic websites?

      “Yes! Browsertrix loads each page it captures in a real web browser. This means you can capture content that other tools might miss, like parts of the page that are dynamically loaded using JavaScript. Generally, if it loads in a browser, Browsertrix is able to capture it!”

    • Can I crawl social media?

      “Yes! Although successful crawling and accurate replay of social media sites is always a moving target, Browsertrix automatically applies settings that make complex social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter/X easier to archive.”

    • Time based billing? Can I run test crawls without being charged?

      “Browsertrix bills you based on the elapsed time spent crawling a website, scaled by the amount of browser windows used. Since every website is different, you may need to try different configurations before landing on one that accurately archives your sites.”
