'''archive.is''', officially known as '''archive.today – webpage capture''', found at its URL <tt>[https://archive.is archive.is]</tt> (and also at <tt>[https://archive.li archive.li]</tt> and <tt>[https://archive.md archive.md]</tt>), is a privately funded [[web archiving]] service website from {{tag|Europe}}.

'''archive.is''' is similar to the WaybackMachine from the Internet Archive at [[Archive.org]]. However, archive.is differs from Archive.org, in that it does not provide active follow-on 'in-page' links (URLs and / or [[wikilink]]s). Furthermore, archive.is claims that ''"Saved pages will have no active elements and no scripts, so they keep you safe as they cannot have any popups or malware!"'' In effect, {{tag|archived}} URLs on archive.is are saved as a single 'flat' page; whereas on Archive.org, they still contain live internet links (within Archive.org). | '''archive.is''' is similar to the WaybackMachine from the Internet Archive at [[Archive.org]].

One {{tag|GreatFeature|great feature}} of archive.is is that saved pages are available under a shortened URL link, similar (though not identical) to goo.gl and bit.ly. Another feature is that it saves both a textual snapshot, ''and'' a graphical image snapshot of the archived page. | One {{tag|GreatFeature|great feature}} of archive.is is that saved pages are available under a shortened URL link, similar (though not identical) to goo.gl and bit.ly.
