Free URL Extractor

Links buried in long text are easy to miss. Paste anything here and this free extractor pulls out every http and https URL — trimming trailing punctuation, removing duplicates — into a clean clickable-ready list.

Private by design. This tool runs 100% in your browser — your text is never uploaded to any server.

How to Use the URL Extractor

  1. Paste text containing links.
  2. Click “Extract URLs”.
  3. Review the deduplicated list.
  4. Copy or download it.

Features

Regex URL detection for http and https links with automatic trimming of trailing punctuation (periods, commas, brackets) that is not part of the URL. Case-insensitive deduplication, optional alphabetical sorting, and one-click copy/download.

Benefits & Use Cases

Researchers harvest sources from documents. Marketers audit links in copy before publishing. Developers extract endpoints from logs and configs. Students collect references from reading material.

Tips

Only http/https URLs are extracted — bare “example.com” without a scheme will not match. Trailing punctuation from sentences is stripped automatically, but verify unusual URLs with query strings manually. Sort alphabetically to group links by domain.
