Email Extractor

Extract email addresses from any text instantly into a clean list — free email extractor.

About

About the Email Extractor

Paste any block of text — an exported contact list, a scraped web page, a pile of forwarded emails — and get every email address pulled out as a clean list. It matches a name, an @, and a domain with a valid-length top-level domain, so it won't grab something that merely contains an @ sign.

Marketers and sales teams use it to turn a pasted contact list, spreadsheet column or email thread into a clean list of addresses, and support staff use it to see everyone who was copied on a long conversation. It's one of many free text tools on Toolapt, and like every tool here, it's free to use with no sign-up and no limit on how much text you scan.

Guide

Using the Email Extractor

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Email addresses is already selected below as the type to find.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Paste your text into the input box.

  3. 3

    Step 3

    Click Extract to see every matched email address listed below, entirely in your browser.

  4. 4

    Step 4

    Copy the list with the Copy button, then de-duplicate if needed.

  • Finds every email address in pasted text, including names with dots, plus signs or hyphens
  • Only matches a complete address — a name, an @ and a domain ending in at least two letters — so a stray @ sign isn't picked up
  • Removes duplicate addresses by default, so each one is listed once
  • Can sort the addresses alphabetically, or separate them with commas ready to paste into an email's To field
  • Works entirely in your browser — the text you paste is never uploaded
  • Free to use, with no sign-up and no limit on how much text you scan

4 worked examples

01

Contact block in a paragraph

Paste "Reach us at info@toolapt.com or sales@toolapt.co.uk anytime" and clicking Find lists both info@toolapt.com and sales@toolapt.co.uk as 2 matches.

02

Ignoring a social handle

Paste "Follow @toolapt on social media, or email hello@toolapt.com" and only hello@toolapt.com is matched — the bare @toolapt handle has no domain, so it's correctly skipped.

03

Duplicate addresses merged

Paste "john@example.com, jane@example.org, john@example.com" with "Remove duplicates" on to get 2 unique results instead of 3 raw matches.

04

Sorted and comma-separated

With "Sort results" and "Separate with commas" ticked, "zoe@site.com and amy@site.com" becomes amy@site.com, zoe@site.com.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions about the Email Extractor.

How do I extract email addresses from text?

Paste your text above, make sure "Email Addresses" is selected as the type, then click Extract. Every matched address is listed below — nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Is this email extractor free?

Yes. It's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how much text you scan.

How does it avoid false positives?

It matches with a pattern requiring a name, an @, and a domain with a valid-length top-level domain, so it won't grab something that merely contains an @ sign without being a plausible email address.

Does it remove duplicate email addresses?

The extracted list reflects every match found in order; check the output for repeats if your source text mentions the same address more than once.

Can I extract links, domains or other data instead?

Yes — the same tool also finds links, domains, numbers, hashtags/mentions and IP addresses. Switch the type dropdown, or use one of the dedicated extractor pages below.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. Extraction runs entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to a server.

Are addresses with different capital letters treated as duplicates?

No. "Remove duplicates" compares addresses exactly as written, so John@Example.com and john@example.com are both kept. Run the text through the Lowercase Converter first if you want them merged.

Does it find international email addresses?

It matches standard addresses made of English letters, digits and the characters . _ % + and -. Addresses that use accented or non-Latin letters, which some providers now allow, won't be picked up.

Can I get the emails as a comma-separated list?

Yes. Tick "Separate with commas" before you click Extract to get one line like a@example.com, b@example.org — ready to paste into the To or BCC field of an email.

Is it okay to collect emails from websites for marketing?

Only with permission. Laws such as the EU's GDPR and the US CAN-SPAM Act restrict sending marketing email to harvested addresses. Use the extractor to tidy up contacts people have actually given you, like a sign-up export or your own inbox.
