How this service works
Query the Internet Archive's Wayback index for any URL: when it was first archived, the most recent snapshot, how many years it spans, and recent capture dates. Useful for fact-checking page history, finding deleted content and due-diligence. Use this when an agent needs to how the Internet Archive remembers a URL.
Output
Returns the date the URL was first archived on the Wayback Machine, the most recent snapshot date, the number of years the URL has been tracked, and a list of recent capture dates — giving a chronological picture of the URL's archive history.
Example use cases
Fact-checking a website's origin date
“I need to verify when https://misinformation-site.com first appeared online — can you check the Wayback Machine to find its earliest archived date and how long it's been around?”
Due diligence on a vendor's web presence
“We're vetting a new vendor at https://acme-supplier.com — can you pull their Internet Archive history to see when they first showed up online, their most recent snapshot, and how many years they've been active?”
Recovering history of a deleted page
“The page at https://old-blog.com/post/123 seems to have been taken down — can you check the Wayback Machine to see if it was ever archived and what the most recent capture was?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://agenttools-hub.vercel.app/api/v1/dev/archive-lookup?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to check the Internet Archive's historical record for a specific URL — particularly for fact-checking when a page first appeared, verifying a site's longevity, recovering information about deleted content, or performing due diligence on a domain's web presence. Prefer this over general web search when you specifically need archival/historical snapshots rather than live page content.

- URL was never archived — Wayback Machine returns no results for the given URL
- Invalid or malformed URL input causes a request error
