Extract Email Addresses From Files and Folders
How it works
- Select folders or upload archives and files to be scanned (local or from the cloud).
- The tool recursively scans folders and unpacks supported archives (ZIP, RAR, etc.).
- The parser analyzes file contents: text documents, spreadsheets, presentations, PDFs, HTML files, and attachments.
- Extracted addresses are filtered, deduplicated, and validated; export to CSV, XLSX, or sync directly with your CRM.

Privacy & security
Security is a top priority when processing files: connections are encrypted, access is limited, and data is stored locally or in the user’s chosen cloud service. The tool operates in read-only mode and stores only the extracted contact data you choose to save. Always comply with data protection regulations and internal privacy policies when using extracted contacts for outreach.
Best practices
- Filter and exclude public or personal domains if your campaign is B2B-focused.
- Always verify lists and obtain consent where required by law before sending campaigns.
- Use scan depth settings and exclusion lists to avoid unnecessary folders and files.
- Back up original files before mass processing and review operation logs.
