Clean Links Kit
Remove common tracking parameters from links before sharing them in Slack, docs, or emails.
Workflow
- 1) Clean URLs inside text
Paste a block of text into URL Parameter Cleaner. It finds links and removes common tracking parameters (UTM, gclid, fbclid, and more).
- 2) Fix AI-added referrer tags
If links were copied from AI tools and include
utm_source=chatgpt.com, run them through Remove ChatGPT UTM. - 3) Clean the message too (optional)
If you are pasting AI-written text into a team channel, use AI Text Cleaner to normalize punctuation, remove invisible characters, and tidy Markdown formatting.
Common mistakes
- Removing parameters that are required for login or app state (for example:
token=). - Cleaning affiliate links when you actually need attribution.
- Assuming all tracking params start with
utm_(they do not).
Example
https://example.com/article?utm_source=chatgpt.com&utm_medium=referral&ref=ai#section
A cleaned version typically keeps the path and optional fragment, while removing tracking keys.
