Extract Emails
from Text
Paste any text — emails buried in CSV files, log dumps, documents, HTML, or raw data — and get a clean, deduplicated list of email addresses in seconds.
Open Text ExtractorHow Text Extraction Works
Paste Your Text
Open the Email Extractor and select the Paste Text tab. Paste any text content — there is no file upload required. You can paste data from spreadsheets, email clients, log files, CRM exports, or any other source.
Automatic Extraction
Click Extract and the engine scans your text using an RFC 5322-compliant regex pattern. It identifies email addresses regardless of surrounding formatting — whether they're in comma-separated lists, embedded in paragraphs, or mixed with other data.
Validation & Deduplication
Each email is validated through four tiers: format check, structural validation, disposable domain detection, and role-based identification. Duplicates are automatically removed. The stats dashboard shows total matches, unique count, and domain breakdown.
Filter & Export
Use the domain filter to include/exclude specific domains. Then export your clean list — copy to clipboard, download as CSV for your CRM, or save as a TXT file for scripting.
What Can You Paste?
CSV & Spreadsheet Data
Copy columns from Excel, Google Sheets, or CSV files. The extractor finds emails regardless of column structure.
Log Files
Server logs, application logs, error reports — paste them in and extract every email address mentioned.
Email Threads
Copy an entire email conversation and extract all sender/recipient addresses from the headers and body.
HTML Source Code
Raw HTML containing mailto links, hidden email strings, or contact details buried in markup.
JSON & API Responses
Paste JSON payloads from APIs — the extractor finds email values regardless of nesting depth.
Documents & Reports
Copy text from PDFs, Word docs, or reports. Any email address in the text will be captured.
Your Text Stays in Your Browser
Unlike server-based extractors that require file uploads, our paste mode processes everything in JavaScript running in your browser tab. Your text never leaves your device — there are no uploads, no server processing, and no data retention. When you close the tab, the data is gone.
Common Use Cases
Cleaning CRM Exports
Export your CRM contact list, paste it in, and get a clean deduplicated list of verified email addresses. Filter out disposable and role-based addresses before importing back.
Processing Conference Attendee Lists
After an event, paste the attendee spreadsheet data to quickly extract all email addresses and prepare your follow-up outreach list.
Mining Research Papers
Researchers often need to collect author contact information. Copy text from academic papers or conference proceedings and extract all embedded email addresses.
Parsing Server Logs
DevOps teams can paste application or mail server logs to extract all email addresses mentioned in error messages, bounce notifications, or access logs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What text formats can I paste?
Anything: plain text, CSV data, JSON payloads, log files, email threads, HTML source code, spreadsheet exports, or even messy unstructured paragraphs. The regex engine scans all of it.
Is there a size limit on pasted text?
There is no hard limit. The extraction runs in your browser, so it depends on your device's memory. Most modern browsers handle several megabytes of text without issues.
Does pasting text send my data to a server?
No. Paste mode is 100% browser-side. Your text is processed by JavaScript in your browser tab and never leaves your device. We have zero visibility into what you paste.
How does deduplication work?
After extraction, duplicate email addresses are automatically removed. The stats dashboard shows both the total matches found and the unique count, so you can see how many duplicates were filtered.
Can I extract from a PDF document?
The tool works with text, not binary files. To extract from a PDF, copy the text content from your PDF reader and paste it into the extractor. Most PDF readers support Select All + Copy.
What validation is applied to extracted emails?
Every extracted email goes through four validation tiers: regex format check, structural validation (valid TLD, proper syntax), disposable domain detection, and role-based address identification (info@, support@, etc.).
