About the Hashtag and Mention Extractor

Hashtag and Mention Extractor pulls every #hashtag and @mention out of any pasted text — captions, comment exports, competitor posts or your own archive. It deduplicates both lists, counts how often each tag and handle appears and lets you copy or download each set separately.

It is handy for social media audits: paste a month of captions to see which tags you actually used and how often, or paste a set of posts from your niche to collect the recurring tags and accounts. Frequency counts are sorted so the most used items surface first.

Extraction runs 100% locally in your browser. Nothing you paste is uploaded, so you can safely analyze client content or internal exports.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get a list of all hashtags used in my captions?

Paste your captions — as many at once as you like — and the extractor collects every #hashtag, removes duplicates and shows how many times each one was used. Then copy the list or download it as a text file.

Does it also find @mentions?

Yes. Mentions are extracted into their own list with their own counts, kept separate from hashtags so you can copy usernames and tags independently.

Will email addresses be mistaken for mentions?

No. The extractor ignores @ signs that appear inside words, so name@example.com is not treated as a mention of “example”.

Can it handle hashtags in other languages?

Yes. The matcher accepts accented Latin, Cyrillic, Arabic, CJK and other letter ranges, so tags like #café or #東京 are captured correctly.

Is anything I paste stored or uploaded?

No. Everything runs in your browser with JavaScript; the text never leaves your device and the tool works offline.
