Site preservation

Cora Archive

When a site goes offline, its content does not have to disappear with it.

Cora IQ captures a site's published copy, imagery, assets and metadata, then packages them into an organized archive your team can retrieve after takedown.

Why it exists

Preservation before takedown

Retiring a website should not mean rebuilding its history from fragments later.

Sites go dark after legal holds, mergers, rebrands, consolidations and deliberate content reductions. The team responsible still needs to know what was published and where supporting assets belonged.

Manual exports are slow and separate content from its context. Cora Archive automates the capture before takedown so the organization keeps an intentional, retrievable record.

Who it supports

One capability, several high-stakes moments

Built for teams that cannot afford to lose the record.

Legal and compliance teams

Preserve published content for a retention or litigation-hold workflow without keeping the full site live.

Marketing and web teams

Retain a legacy site during an acquisition, rebrand, consolidation or platform transition.

Companies reducing content

Create a safety net before removing pages or retiring an entire website.

What is captured

An archive with context

Keep the page, not just a folder of disconnected files.

  • Published page copy organized by page and section
  • Images and assets kept alongside the content they support
  • Titles, descriptions and available structured metadata
  • An organized package scoped for authorized retrieval

The process

Four clear steps

From live site to retrievable package.

  1. 01

    Scan the live site

    Cora IQ crawls the published website without requiring a CMS integration for a standard capture.

  2. 02

    Keep context intact

    Copy, images, assets and metadata are organized together by page.

  3. 03

    Package the archive

    The captured site is prepared in an organized, retrievable format defined during scoping.

  4. 04

    Retire with confidence

    The live site can come down while the content remains available to authorized teams.

Two ways to use it

For agencies

Planned for Cora Workspace.

The current coming-soon model includes Archive during discovery, delivery or ongoing client work. Final availability and packaging may change before launch.

Direct answers

Useful before the conversation

What teams ask before preserving a site.

What does Cora Archive preserve?

Cora Archive captures published page copy, images, assets and metadata, then organizes them by page so the content can be retrieved after the live site is retired.

See how an Archive proposal is scoped
Does Cora Archive require CMS access?

Cora IQ scans the published website directly, so a standard archive usually does not require a CMS integration. Scope is confirmed before capture begins.

See how site scanning works
Can Cora Archive support a legal-hold or M&A workflow?

Cora Archive can preserve website content for legal, compliance, acquisition, rebrand and downsizing workflows. Your legal or compliance team should define the retention and evidentiary requirements that apply to your organization.

Discuss preservation requirements
How is an archive delivered and retained?

The delivery format, access model and retention period are defined during scoping so the package fits the organization's preservation and retrieval needs.
