Copy Website | Save Pages as HTML & Screenshots

Copy any public website into a browsable snapshot. Works on modern JavaScript-heavy sites. No setup required.

🚀 What this Actor does

• Copy any public website in minutes
• Works on JavaScript-heavy sites (React, Vue, etc.)
• Choose how deep to crawl — you stay in control
• Save pages as HTML for offline use
• Optionally capture screenshots for each page

This Actor is designed to be the simplest way to copy a website without dealing with complex scraping setups.

📦 What you get

For each page:

• Full HTML snapshot
• Page URL and metadata
• Crawl depth information
• Optional screenshot (for visual reference)

All results are stored in a dataset and can be exported as JSON, CSV, or downloaded for further use.

🧠 How it works

1. Start from a URL
2. Crawl links within the same website
3. Capture each page (HTML + optional screenshot)
4. Continue up to your defined depth

⚔️ How this is different

Unlike traditional web scrapers, this Actor focuses on:

Capturing full page snapshots — not just extracting text

That means:

• You get complete pages, not partial data
• Better for offline browsing, archiving, and backups
• No need to configure complex extraction rules

💡 Use cases

• Archive a website before it changes
• Download documentation for offline use
• Save blog content for research
• Backup public websites
• Analyze site structure

💰 Pricing

Simple and predictable:

You only pay for successfully saved pages.

• 1 page saved = 1 billable event
• Failed or blocked pages are not counted

This makes costs easy to estimate and control.

⚙️ Example input

{
"startUrl":"https://example.com",
"maxDepth":2
}

⚠️ Limitations

Works best for:

• Blogs
• Documentation sites
• Marketing websites

May struggle with:

• Login-required sites
• Highly protected websites (e.g., strong anti-bot systems)
• Extremely dynamic or infinite-scroll apps

🧩 Tips for best results

• Start with a low depth (1–2) to test
• Increase depth gradually
• Avoid very large sites unless needed
• Use screenshots for debugging tricky pages

🏁 Summary

The simplest way to copy any public website.

No complex scraping configs. No confusing pricing. Just give a URL, set depth, and get your website snapshot.
