Site2PDF vs Visualping
Visualping is website change detection with visual and text diffs and alerts. Site2PDF saves whole websites as searchable PDFs on demand or on a schedule, and can certify a capture with a hash, a certificate and a signature anyone can verify. Here is how the two compare on the points that decide a purchase.

Where Visualping is stronger
Visualping is built around the alert: it tells you a page changed, shows you exactly what changed, and its free tier already covers five pages checked hourly. Its Personal plan keeps three months of history; Business keeps a year. If the job is "ping me when this page moves" and you never need the page itself as a file, it does that well.
Best for: Anyone who needs to be notified of changes on a few pages and does not need to keep or prove the content itself.
Where Site2PDF is stronger
Site2PDF keeps the page, not just the news that it changed: every run is a full capture you can download as a searchable PDF, and legal captures are hashed, certified and RSA-signed against a published public key. Visualping has no PDF output, no whole-site capture and no integrity or signature feature.
Best for: Anyone who needs the page itself as a file — one searchable PDF of a whole site — and, when it matters, proof that a third party can check without trusting us.
The one row nobody else can tick
Every Site2PDF legal capture ships with a signed manifest and a detached RSA-2048 signature.
Our public key is published at
https://site2pdf.online/.well-known/site2pdf-signing-pubkey.pem,
so a court, an auditor or the other side can confirm the archive is authentic and unaltered with a single
openssl dgst -sha256 -verify command — no account, no request to us.
