What this tool does
This tool scans a web page, PDF, or image to find contact details like email addresses, phone numbers, zip codes, or social media profiles.
Because it works by scanning text in files, the results depend on how the content is stored. For example, if a PDF does not store text in a searchable way, the tool may not find any matches. Similarly, if an image is a picture of text rather than actual digital text, it will not be scanned.
Common uses
- Extracting email lists from public web pages or documents.
- Finding phone numbers or zip codes embedded in text files.
- Collecting social media handles from websites.
Good to know
- You must provide the exact web address (URL) where the content is located.
- If the content cannot be read, the tool returns an empty list.
