Copy clean text from any website. No formatting junk, no invisible characters. Fast, private, free.

Tired of pasting a mess? Copy text from the web and you get broken formatting, stray [1] footnotes, tracking links, mismatched quotes - sometimes the site won't even let you copy at all. CleanCopy fixes all of it in one click. Select. Right-click. Paste clean. That's it. No settings to configure, no formatting to fix by hand afterward. Your clipboard gets exactly the text you wanted - nothing else. What gets cleaned automatically: - HTML tags and invisible characters - paste plain text, not a tangle of markup - Tracking parameters (UTM links) - share links without the surveillance baggage - Footnote clutter - [1], [citation needed], and similar markers, gone - Broken PDF line breaks - paragraphs that got mangled on copy, fixed - Duplicate lines and messy quotes/dashes - cleaned up automatically - Email thread markers and attribution spam ("Read more at...") - stripped out Even works where copying is blocked. Some sites disable right-click and text selection to stop you from copying. CleanCopy gets around it - right-click, choose "Disable Copy Protection," and copy normally. Your text never leaves your browser. Everything runs locally. No servers, no analytics, no tracking, nothing sent anywhere - ever. That's not a promise, it's how the extension is built. Fast, by hand or by shortcut: Alt+C (Windows/Linux) or Command+Shift+X (Mac) Free - install once, copy clean forever.
