About

Sanitize It helps you instantly remove tracking and referral junk from links, so you can share clean, readable URLs in one click (or one hotkey).

Whether you're posting in Slack, Discord, email, or social, Sanitize It makes sure your links look tidy and don't include unnecessary tracking parameters.

Features:
• One-Click URL Cleanup: Remove tracking parameters like utm_source, utm_medium, fbclid, and more.
• Smart Mode: Preserves essential parameters on known sites like YouTube video IDs, Google search queries, Kagi lenses, and Amazon product pages while still stripping trackers. Enabled by default, toggleable in settings.
• Settings Panel: Choose your default click behavior (Copy only or Copy + Refresh) and toggle smart mode. Access via right-click the icon > Options, or Alt+Shift+S.
• Auto Copy to Clipboard: Cleaned URLs are automatically copied, so you can paste and share immediately.
• Contextual Notifications: The toast tells you what happened, whether tracking was removed, essential params were kept, or the URL was already clean.
• Keyboard Shortcuts
- Sanitize + Copy: Alt+Shift+X (or Option+Shift+X)
- Sanitize + Copy + Refresh: Alt+Shift+R (or Option+Shift+R)
- Open Settings: Alt+Shift+S (or Option+Shift+S)
• Refresh with the Clean URL: Perfect when you want the page you're viewing to load without tracking attached.
• Privacy-First & Open Source: No analytics, no data collection, minimal permissions and is fully open-source. Settings are stored locally in your browser.
