Internet Archive Scraper — Wayback + Search + Metadata [$1.5💰]
Pricing
from $1.50 / 1,000 archive rows
Internet Archive all-in-one scraper — paste a URL or domain for Wayback snapshot history, a keyword for library search, or an item ID for full metadata + file lists. Date filters, availability checks, flat JSON rows. Pure HTTP via open APIs, no browser, no proxies. $1.50/1k rows.
One query per line. Examples: example.com (snapshot history of a domain), https://example.com/page (history of one URL), nasa (library search), https://archive.org/details/InformationM or item:InformationM (item metadata + files), snapshotOf:example.com@20200601 (closest snapshot to a date).
Which web archives to pull snapshot history from. Wayback Machine (archive.org) is the default and gives the richest metadata. archive.today is a separate mirror that often has pages Wayback missed. Memento aggregator (TimeTravel) returns snapshots from 20+ member archives at once. Multiple = merged, each row tagged with its archive. Applies to URL/domain queries only (library search & item lookups are archive.org). Tip: enable a proxy in the Proxy section for archive.today / Memento — those mirrors rate-limit per IP.
[ "waybackmachine"]Start of the date range. Applies to snapshot timestamps in CDX mode and to publicdate in search mode. Defaults to 1996-01-01 (the Wayback Machine's first crawls), i.e. no effective lower bound.
End of the date range. Applies to snapshot timestamps in CDX mode and to publicdate in search mode. Also used as the default target date for snapshotOf: lookups without an explicit @date. Leave empty for 'up to now'.
Restrict library-search results to one archive.org mediatype. Ignored in CDX / metadata / availability modes.
When enabled, consecutive Wayback snapshots with identical content (same digest) are collapsed into one row. Ignored in other modes.
Sort for library-search results. Default (empty) is relevance.
Hard cap on total dataset rows across all queries. Always enforced — CDX requests carry an explicit limit so large domains stay fast.
How many queries are processed in parallel. archive.org is a nonprofit — keep this low (hard-capped at 5).
