URL Extractor
Extract all URLs and links from unstructured text.
About URL Extractor
The URL Extractor identifies and extracts all URLs and hyperlinks from unstructured text, HTML source, Markdown, JavaScript, or plain prose using RFC 3986-compliant pattern matching that handles complex query strings, fragments, internationalized domain names, and both http and https schemes. It also captures common bare-domain patterns and mailto links when present. This tool is essential for web content analysis, SEO auditing, security research, and data migration tasks where every link in a large body of text must be captured without manual scanning.
How to Use
Paste any text, HTML source code, Markdown document, or log file containing URLs into the input area. The tool scans the full content, extracts all valid URLs, removes duplicates, and displays the clean list sorted by domain. Filter results by scheme (http, https, mailto) or by domain to narrow the output. Use Copy All to get a newline-separated URL list, or Download CSV to export with metadata columns for batch analysis.
