What this tool does

Extract URLs finds http, https, and www links in pasted text, trims surrounding punctuation, optionally normalizes bare www links, removes duplicates, and shows source-line context without crawling or fetching any URL.

Common use cases

Pull links out of pasted text, notes, emails, drafts, or logs before auditing, cleaning, deduplicating, or sharing them.

Use Extract URLs when pasted text needs counting, cleanup, rewriting, list preparation, formatting, or a final check before it goes into an email, document, CMS, spreadsheet, prompt, or publishing workflow.

Clean pasted copyProcess drafts, notes, prompts, spreadsheet cells, or lists before moving text into a CMS, document, ticket, email, or editor.

Check a list or countUse the result to review line order, duplicates, spacing, punctuation, word counts, character counts, or formatting before publishing or sharing.

Preserve meaningAfter cleanup or transformation, read a sample of the output so automation has not removed context, changed wording, or broken destination formatting.

How to use it

Paste the text, email, markdown draft, support note, export row, or log block that contains links.
Choose whether duplicate URLs should be removed and whether bare www links should be normalized with an https:// scheme.
Review the extracted URL list and source lines, then copy the clean links into a spreadsheet, audit note, redirect map, or cleanup workflow.

Example workflow

Paste the text you need to count, clean, split, join, sort, or reformat. Review the word, character, line, sentence, paragraph, spacing, or list result, then copy the cleaned output into your document, spreadsheet, CMS, prompt, or editor.

Privacy note

URL extraction runs locally in your browser. ClearUtils does not upload, store, fetch, crawl, open, or log the text or links you paste.

8 focused answers for this page

What links can this URL extractor find?

It finds http://, https://, and bare www links in pasted text. Bare www links are normalized to https:// in the output so the copied list is easier to use.

Can I see where each URL came from?

Yes. The tool shows each extracted URL with its source line number and hostname so you can quickly trace links back in a long draft, email, or log.

Can I remove duplicate URLs?

Yes. Keep duplicate removal enabled to output each URL once. If the same link appears more than once, the tool keeps the first copy it finds and skips later duplicates.

Does the extractor remove punctuation around pasted links?

Yes. It trims common trailing punctuation such as commas, periods, parentheses, brackets, colons, and exclamation marks so copied URLs are cleaner.

What should I do before extracting URLs from messy text?

If the source text has hard line breaks or extra spacing, clean it first with Remove Line Breaks or Remove Extra Spaces so repeated links and wrapped URLs are easier to catch.

Can I use this tool on emails, notes, or log files?

Yes. Paste any plain text source, including emails, notes, logs, drafts, or exported content, and the extractor will pull matching links into a clean list.

What if a URL is wrapped across lines?

If the source text wraps a link across lines, clean the text first with Remove Line Breaks so the extractor can see the full URL more reliably.

Does this URL extractor upload my text?

No. URL extraction runs locally in your browser and does not send pasted text or extracted links to ClearUtils servers.
