The Webrecorder Project has developed many tools to help with web archive capture and replay.

There are tools for everyone who is intersted in creating or replaying web archives on their own, and more advanced tools for developers, which provide tools for software developers to integrate into other workflows and require a bit more technical expertise.

ReplayWeb.page

ReplayWeb.page provides a web archive replay system as a single web site (which also works offline), allowing users to view web archives from anywhere, including local computer or even Google Drive. See the User guide for more info.

Webrecorder Desktop

Webrecorder Desktop is a standalone desktop app, developed as a modification of the Webrecorder (now Conifer) hosted service. It includes support for creating and replaying web archives on your own machine.

Conifer Hosted Service

Conifer (formely https://webrecorder.io/) is an integrated hosted service offered by Rhizome, and includes capture, replay and storage capabilities.
