About Archiveglass: Web Library

Archiveglass is a local web archive with provenance: capture the page, keep the proof.

CAPTURE
- Enter an HTTPS address; Archiveglass makes one request for exactly that page
- No scripts are executed, no other resources are fetched, no crawling ever
- The raw HTML is stored on this device, byte for byte

PROVENANCE
- Every capture records its source URL, capture time, byte count, and SHA-256
- Verify integrity at any moment: the stored file is re-hashed and compared with the recorded hash — intact, altered, or missing, stated plainly
- Export a provenance record beside the HTML for citation

READ AND SEARCH
- Readable text extracted from each capture for reading and full-text search
- Outgoing links listed with absolute URLs — capture any of them in one tap
- Notes and tags on every record; search covers titles, text, tags, notes, and domains

YOURS
- Everything lives in the app's own storage on this device
- No account, no sync, no analytics; the only network activity is the capture you explicitly request
- Delete a capture and its file is gone

For researchers, students, and anyone who has watched a cited page change or vanish: keep your own copy, with the receipt.
