Extract Emails
Pull deduplicated email addresses from text.
Extract Emails scans any block of text—like a forwarded message, webpage copy, or document—and pulls out every email address it finds, deduplicated and listed one per line. Everything runs locally in your browser with no upload.
How it works
The tool matches text against a practical email address pattern covering the local part, @ symbol, domain, and top-level domain. Matches are cleaned of trailing punctuation, deduplicated case-insensitively, and listed in the order they first appeared.
Benefits
- Finds email addresses embedded anywhere in unstructured text
- Deduplicates addresses case-insensitively automatically
- Strips common trailing punctuation from matches
- Runs fully offline with instant results
Use cases
- Pulling contact addresses out of a forwarded email thread
- Collecting email addresses mentioned across a long document
- Building a quick mailing list from pasted webpage or PDF text
- Auditing exported data for accidental email addresses before sharing it
Best practices
- Review the extracted list for false positives before using it for outreach
- Combine with Line Deduper if you merge results from multiple extractions
- Double-check addresses with unusual domains manually since format matching cannot verify existence
- Use Find and Replace afterward if you need to redact extracted addresses from the original text
Common mistakes
- Assuming every extracted address is deliverable—format matching does not verify mailboxes
- Expecting obfuscated addresses like 'name at example dot com' to be detected
- Not checking for addresses split across a line break, which the pattern will not join
- Forgetting that this tool only extracts—removing addresses requires Find and Replace
Privacy
All extraction happens locally in your browser using a regular expression. ToolHub does not receive or store the text or emails you process here.
Frequently asked questions
- How does Extract Emails find addresses in text?
- The tool scans your text with a pattern that matches typical email address formats—local part, @ symbol, domain, and a top-level domain of at least two letters.
- Are duplicate email addresses removed?
- Yes. Matches are deduplicated case-insensitively, so 'Name@Example.com' and 'name@example.com' are treated as the same address and only listed once.
- Does this tool validate that the emails actually exist?
- No. It only checks that text looks like a valid email address format. It does not verify deliverability or confirm the mailbox is active.
- Will trailing punctuation after an email be included?
- No. Common trailing punctuation such as periods, commas, and closing parentheses right after an address is stripped so the extracted email stays clean.
- What order are the extracted emails listed in?
- Emails are listed in the order they first appear in your text, one per line, with later duplicates removed.
- Is my text uploaded when extracting emails?
- No. Extraction runs entirely in your browser using a regular expression, and your text is never sent to a server.
