Website Archiving
Prove what your website said — on any date a regulator asks.
Your public-facing web content is a regulated communication. Sharp Archive captures tamper-evident, point-in-time snapshots of your site automatically — so when an examiner, auditor, or records request comes, you can show exactly what was published and when.

Your website changes constantly. Regulators expect a record of every version.
A live site only shows today. But recordkeeping rules ask what your site said months or years ago — and "we updated it" isn't an answer. Sharp Archive keeps the history for you.
SEC Marketing Rule
RIA and broker-dealer websites are advertising under the SEC Marketing Rule. Every claim, disclosure, and performance figure needs a preserved record of when it appeared.
FOIA & public records
Government agencies, cities, and towns must retain public-facing web content. Sharp Archive captures it on a schedule, so records requests are simple to answer.
One archive, every channel
Your website lives in the same archive as your email, social, and messaging — searchable together, across all 23+ channels, in one place.
Archiving your site in three steps
Submit your URL
Add the website you want archived. Once approved, the feed is set up — no plugins to install, no code on your site.
Automatic snapshots
Sharp Archive captures point-in-time versions of your pages on a schedule, preserving content exactly as it appeared.
Browse, search, export
Navigate any archived version by date, search across pages and articles, and export any snapshot at no cost.
Intelligent Monitoring
Get alerted to what matters — not to everything.
Teams switching from other archivers tell us the same thing: their old system flags everything, so reviewers spend their days clearing noise — and the change that actually matters gets buried with the rest.
Sharp Archive scans your archived content as it's captured — across all 23+ channels, your website included — and checks it against the compliance rules that apply to your organization. Content gets a risk score, and only higher-risk items surface for review. Your team looks at what's actually a concern, not every routine update.
Scan on capture
Every snapshot and page is analyzed the moment it's archived — alongside your email, social, and messaging channels.
Score against the rules
Content is checked against the compliance rules that apply to you and assigned a risk score, with the specific concerning language highlighted.
Surface only what's flagged
When content crosses the risk threshold, your team is notified — so review time goes to genuine concerns, not routine edits.
Switching costs you nothing to start
