Learn how to clone websites programmatically and understand our technology.

Quick Start Guide

Clone any website in 10 seconds:

2. Paste your URL
3. Choose Fast or Accurate

That's it. The ZIP file downloads automatically. Extract and open index.html to view offline.

Understanding Modes

FreeSiteClone offers two download modes for different use cases:

Fast Mode

Uses lightweight HTTP requests to fetch the page HTML and all linked resources. Best for static sites, blogs, and documentation.

Accurate Mode

Uses Playwright headless browser to render the page. Captures JavaScript-generated content. Best for SPAs and dynamic web apps.

API Reference

POST /api/clone
{
  "url": "https://example.com",

Returns the ZIP file as a binary download on success, or a JSON error object on failure.
