Ok, but I could replicate this process and archive for under $20,000k per year(probably way under) and set it up in less than 1 day with claude...

I’ll come back in 3 days and you can share the link with your web archive. I’ll Venmo you $20 for your Claude pro subscription.

		Looking at the 2024 to 2025 archive, it's around 1TB/year: https://app.browsertrix.com/explore/usgov-archive/collection... If that's true, something has clearly gone wildly wrong with the, most likely several, departments involved/created with maintaining this. I suspect if you look at the breakdown, it's 90% administrative costs, with the rest being inflated Cisco contracts, or whatever other parasite latched on. As others have said, it's been archived already.

You've obviously never worked in government before. The technology is likely not the issue; the bureaucracy is.
