Our Email Extractor scans any text, document content or HTML source you paste and pulls out every valid email address it can find in one click. It understands plus-addressed Gmail accounts, country-code domains like .co.uk, and mailto: links buried inside page markup.

Once extracted, the list can be sorted alphabetically, stripped of duplicates, filtered by domain and downloaded as a .txt file. Everything runs locally in your browser, so your data never leaves your device.

The tool reads your input from left to right looking for anything shaped like a valid email address - a local part, an @ sign and a domain with a real top-level domain. Sentence punctuation around addresses is ignored, so write to bob@example.com. still yields a clean bob@example.com.

Because it works on raw text, it happily processes forum exports, comment sections, CSV files, JSON blobs, email headers or full HTML page sources. Invalid lookalikes such as hello@world (no top-level domain) are rejected automatically.

Detection engine: Catches patterns other extractors miss, including plus-addressing (jane.doe+news@gmail.com), multi-part country-code domains (mail@yahoo.co.id) and mailto: links inside HTML. Pasting Contact jane.doe+news@example.co.uk or open mailto:bob@test.org. extracts jane.doe+news@example.co.uk and bob@test.org.

Sort results (A to Z): Arranges the extracted addresses alphabetically instead of the order they appear in the text. With zoe@x.org, mike@a.com and ann@b.org in your input, the output lists ann@b.org, mike@a.com, zoe@x.org.

Unique only: Removes duplicate addresses so each one appears once, no matter how often it occurs in the text. Matching is case-insensitive, so Bob@X.com and bob@x.com count as one entry, and the result message reports how many duplicates were removed.

Lowercase output: Converts every extracted address to lowercase for consistent lists. MiXeD@Example.COM becomes mixed@example.com - safe, because email delivery ignores capitalization.

Gmail cleanup: Rewrites Gmail addresses to their canonical inbox form by removing dots and everything after the + sign, and treats googlemail.com as gmail.com. For example j.o.h.n+ads@gmail.com becomes johndoe@gmail.com. Combine with Unique only to collapse many aliases into one address.

Domain filter: Enter one or more domains, comma separated, then choose Keep only to hold on to those domains or Exclude to throw them away. Keeping gmail.com from a mixed list leaves only @gmail.com addresses; leave the field empty to disable filtering.

Obfuscation detection: Reassembles addresses that were written to hide from scrapers. With this option checked, bob (at) site [dot] com becomes bob@site.com, and plain-word forms like john.doe at example dot com are detected too.

Separator: Controls how the results are joined. New line puts each address on its own row, Comma gives a@x.com,b@y.org, Space gives a@x.com b@y.org and Comma+Space gives a@x.com, b@y.org.

Load an example: Inserts sample text that mixes plain addresses, a duplicate written in different case, a plus-addressed Gmail, a country-code domain, a mailto: link inside HTML markup and an invalid lookalike - then extracts the list immediately using the default settings.

Upload a file: Load a .txt, .html, .csv or similar text file straight into the input area instead of copy-pasting. The file is read locally by your browser and never uploaded anywhere.

FAQ 1: Is this email extractor free?
Answer: Yes, it is completely free with no sign-up, and there are no limits on how much text you can scan or how often you can use it.

FAQ 2: Is my text or my extracted emails stored anywhere?
Answer: No. The extraction runs entirely in your browser - nothing you paste, upload or extract is sent to or saved on any server. Once you close or refresh the page, everything is gone.

FAQ 3: Can this tool crawl a website by URL?
Answer: No, it works on text you provide rather than live web pages, because browsers block cross-site reading of other websites. To use it on a web page, open the page, view its source (Ctrl+U in most browsers), copy the markup and paste it into the tool.

FAQ 4: Why do some extracted addresses look different from the input?
Answer: Two options rewrite addresses on purpose: Lowercase output converts everything to lowercase, and Gmail cleanup collapses Gmail aliases such as name+tag@gmail.com into their canonical form. Uncheck either option to keep addresses exactly as they appear.

FAQ 5: Why was hello@world not extracted?
Answer: A valid address needs a domain ending in a proper top-level domain such as .com or .co.uk. Text like hello@world has no real domain, so it is rejected along with malformed entries containing consecutive dots.

FAQ 6: Can I extract emails from HTML source code?
Answer: Yes. Paste the full page source into the input and the extractor picks up addresses whether they appear as visible text, inside attributes like href="mailto:name@domain.com", or wrapped in any tags.
