PURL (https://purl.archive.org/) is a similar permanent URL service but you choose the URL.

It used to be hosted at purl.org and run by the OCLC but in 2016 it was transferred to the Internet Archive.

PURL is in the same space as w3id.org, not perma.cc. Purl and w3id work by creating stable URLs thar can redirect to a (potentially changing) origin, perma.cc/archive.org/archivebox create WARC archives or the content at a given instant.
