Remove URLs from Text

This tool eliminates or modifies URLs in your text. You can remove all URLs, selectively remove only certain ones, keep a whitelist of important links, replace them with placeholders, or filter by domain. It’s perfect for tidying up references, ensuring no undesired external links remain, or simply anonymizing them.
