All interactive tools run entirely in your browser. Your data never leaves your device.

How It Works

Paste Markdown text and the tool scans for all link types: inline [text](url), images ![alt](url), reference links [text][id], autolinks <url>, and bare URLs. Each link shows its type, URL, display text, title, line number, and reference ID if applicable.

Features

5 link types: inline, image, reference, autolink, bare URL
Reference resolution: resolves [text][id] links against [id]: url definitions
Type filtering: filter results by link type
Line numbers: shows which line each link appears on
Statistics: total links, counts per type, unique URLs, unique domains
Copy URLs: one-click copy of all extracted URLs
Color-coded badges: each link type has a distinct color
5 examples: README, reference links, mixed content, blog post, image gallery
Private: runs entirely in the browser — no data transmitted
