Why use this free email extractor
Built for speed and privacy. It works on any modern browser, on desktop or phone.
Files never leave your device
It runs inside your browser. Nothing is uploaded to LeadCanal or stored anywhere.
Only the right files open
It accepts TXT, CSV, HTML, JSON, VCF, EML, PDF, DOCX and XLSX and checks each file's first bytes, so renamed programs or scripts are refused.
Free with no limits we impose
No signup, no watermark and no daily cap. Big files depend only on your device memory.
Several files at once
Where it makes sense, drop many files and download them together as a ZIP.
After you extract emails from text: verify before you send
An extracted list is only a starting point. Old pages and documents carry addresses that no longer exist, and sending to them raises your bounce rate and hurts deliverability.
Run the list through an email verifier first, and only contact people with a genuine reason to hear from you. Laws such as CAN-SPAM and GDPR apply to how you use the addresses.
- Verify before you send
- Remove role addresses for cold outreach
- Keep an opt-out in every email
- Record where each address came from

Your files stay on your device
This converter runs inside your browser, using your own computer or phone to do the work. The file is never uploaded to LeadCanal or anyone else, and nothing is saved on our servers. Close the tab and it is gone.
Each tool only opens the file types it is built for. We check the file extension and the first bytes of the file, so a renamed program or script is refused before it is opened.
Drop the PDF, Word, Excel or text file into the extractor and click Extract emails. Every address is listed once and can be downloaded as CSV.
Yes, with "Catch name [at] site [dot] com" switched on, common obfuscated forms are converted back to normal addresses.
Yes. "Business emails only" removes free providers, and the CSV marks each address as Business, Free or Role.
It depends on where the person is and why you contact them. B2B outreach is allowed in many places with an honest sender, a relevant reason and an opt-out. Check CAN-SPAM, GDPR and local rules.
