  • One file with everything inlined, including images and fonts
  • Saves what is rendered, so pages built by JavaScript are captured correctly
  • Builds an organised, searchable archive rather than loose files
  • Annotations and highlights are stored with the capture
  • Files are large because everything is embedded
  • Interactive and streaming content cannot be preserved
  • Full features need the companion backend server running
  • Setup is more involved than a one-click page saver
