About this tool
Links pile up inside things that are hard to work with: a busy group chat, a marketing email, the source of a page, a document full of footnotes. This tool gathers them into a clean list with one link per line, which you can paste into a spreadsheet, a bookmark manager or a link checker.
It knows where a link ends. A full stop or comma that closes the sentence is left out, and a closing bracket is kept only when the link itself opened one, as many encyclopaedia addresses do. In HTML source, the & inside links is turned back into a plain ampersand.
Shared links often carry tags that only exist to report where a click came from, such as utm_source or a long click ID. Removing them makes links shorter and more private and lets true duplicates collapse into one. Switch to "site name only" to get a quick list of every domain a page refers to.
Frequently asked questions
Which tracking tags are removed?
Every tag starting with utm_, plus common advertising and analytics click IDs such as fbclid, gclid and msclkid. Ordinary tags that change what the page shows, like a search term or page number, are left alone.
Why are some domains without http:// not picked up?
Bare domains are only matched when "Include links without http://" is on. Even then, a name must start with www. or end in a well-known ending, so file names like notes.md or setup.py are not mistaken for websites.
Does it visit the links or check that they work?
No. It only reads the text you paste. No link is opened, so it is safe to use with suspicious or private addresses.
Where does my text go?
Nowhere. The scanning code runs inside this page on your device, and closing the tab removes the text completely.
