Extraction Options
Extraction Tip: This tool is perfect for stripping out specific data from logs, HTML, or code snippets. For example, to extract all email addresses inside angle brackets, set Start to < and End to >. Processing happens entirely on your local machine.
Why use an Online Extract Between Delimiters Tool?
Raw data often contains valuable information buried within tags, brackets, or custom characters. Whether you're pulling email addresses from log files, data from HTML/XML tags, or specific values from a structured text format, manually copying each fragment is incredibly slow and tedious. Our Extract Between Delimiters tool automates this extraction instantly. Simply define your starting and ending markers, and the tool will scan your entire text to find every match in between. It uses smart non-greedy matching to ensure it grabs the correct segments without overreaching. It's a perfect utility for developers, researchers, and data cleaners who need to isolate specific data points from large text blocks. Like all CuscusLab tools, your data stays on your machine—no servers involved.
