Which links does it find?

It matches full http:// and https:// URLs as well as bare www. addresses, then trims trailing punctuation like a sentence-ending period or a closing bracket that is not part of the link.

How accurate is the matching and the domain extraction?

URLs are detected by pattern and balanced-bracket trimming, and the domain option parses each URL with the browser's built-in URL parser, so hostnames are extracted exactly as the browser would resolve them.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No — all extraction happens locally in your browser and nothing is sent to a server.

Can it reduce a list of URLs to just the domains?

Yes. Turn on the domain option and each link is parsed with the browser's URL parser to keep only its hostname — useful for building a list of referring sites or checking which domains appear in a document.

Does it find bare www links without http?

Yes. It matches full http:// and https:// URLs as well as bare www. addresses, so a link written as www.example.com is picked up even without a scheme.

How does it handle a URL at the end of a sentence?

It trims trailing punctuation and unbalanced brackets, so a link followed by a full stop or wrapped in parentheses is captured cleanly without the surrounding characters.

Can I remove duplicate links?

Yes. De-duplication keeps each link (or each domain, if that option is on) once, even if it appeared many times, and you can sort the result alphabetically for a tidy list.

Extract URLs from Text

Extract URLs from text

Whether you’re auditing the links in a document, harvesting sources from an article, or pulling referring domains out of a log, finding every URL by eye is tedious. This tool scans any text — prose, HTML, logs or exports — and lists every link it contains, with options to clean and reshape the result.

How it works

The extractor matches full http:// and https:// URLs plus bare www. addresses, then trims trailing punctuation and unbalanced brackets so a link at the end of a sentence or inside parentheses comes out clean. From there your options apply: de-duplicate keeps each link once; domain only parses each URL with the browser’s built-in URL parser and keeps just the hostname; sort orders them alphabetically; and the separator toggle joins them with newlines or commas. A count shows how many links were found.

Example

Paste:

See (https://example.com/page). Also visit www.example.com and https://docs.example.com.

With domain-only, de-duplicate and sort on, the output is:

docs.example.com
example.com

The trailing ) and . are trimmed, the two example.com links collapse to one domain, and docs.example.com is kept separately. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
