When a live fetch only recovers a teaser (or nothing) on a paywalled site, the reader now offers a one-click link to the newest archive.today snapshot of that URL - a frozen public copy that is often complete.

  • Shown as a toolbar button and a prominent notice link.
  • Appears only when the result looks incomplete: below the minimum useful length, or a known paywall domain (NYT/WaPo) under a teaser-sized threshold. Full articles don't show it.
  • The app links to archive.today; it does not scrape it.
