Link Opener by InterviewCue

Paste URLs in any format and open them all in browser tabs - perfect for podcast prep, presentations, or research.

What is Link Opener?

Whether you're preparing for a podcast interview, organizing research materials, or setting up for a presentation, you often need to open dozens of reference links all at once. Link Opener makes this effortless - just paste your URLs in any format and open them all with a single click.

How to Use

  1. Paste your links in any format:
    • Markdown format: [GitHub](https://github.com/python/cpython)
    • Bold with colon: **Project Name**: https://example.com
    • Plain URLs: https://example.com
    • Bare domains: github.com (we'll add https:// automatically)
    • Mixed formats—comma-separated, one per line, or space-separated
  2. Click "Parse Links" to extract and validate all URLs
  3. Use Cmd+Click (Mac) or Ctrl+Click (Windows/Linux) to open each link in a background tab
  4. Opened links are automatically marked with a checkmark and moved to the bottom

Privacy Note: Your links are processed locally and never stored on our servers. Everything happens in your browser session and is immediately discarded.

Link Directly to Pre-filled URLs

You can also link directly to this page with URLs already loaded! Just add a urls parameter to the URL with newline-separated links (URL encoded). Perfect for sharing a curated set of links or integrating with other tools.

Example:
https://interviewcue.com/tools/link-opener?urls=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%0Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fpython.org

Frequently Asked Questions

Does my browser block pop-ups when opening multiple links?

Link Opener doesn't automatically open links—it extracts and displays them for you to click individually. This avoids pop-up blockers entirely. We recommend using Cmd+Click (Mac) or Ctrl+Click (Windows/Linux) to open links in background tabs, which works smoothly even with dozens of links.

What link formats are supported?

Link Opener handles almost any format: Markdown links ([Text](url)), plain URLs (https://example.com), bare domains (example.com), and mixed formats separated by commas, newlines, or spaces. It automatically adds https:// to bare domains and removes duplicates.

Are my links stored or tracked?

No. Nothing is saved to our servers. When you close the page or start a new batch, the links are completely discarded. Your privacy is fully protected.

Can I remove links from the list?

Yes! Each parsed link has a small × button on the right side. Click it to remove any link you don't need. This is especially useful if you pasted more links than intended.

How do I share a pre-filled Link Opener page?

Add a urls parameter to the URL with newline-separated, URL-encoded links. For example: https://interviewcue.com/tools/link-opener?urls=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%0Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fpython.org. Most programming languages have built-in URL encoding functions to make this easy.

What's the maximum number of links I can parse?

There's no hard limit, but you will have that many tabs so keep it reasonable. If you have hundreds of links, consider breaking them into multiple batches for easier management.
