A better way to save, clean, tag, and share links
Nox URL Manager is a lightweight browser extension for Chrome/Edge that helps you capture links fast, keep them tidy, and share them wherever you work — without handing your data to anyone else. It’s built for people who live in their browser: developers, researchers, and anyone who collects lots of URLs.
Why use it?
- One place for links. Save from the toolbar, a dialog, or the context menu.
- Stay organized. Tag, filter, search, and de-duplicate in seconds.
- Fix messy links. Bulk tools help standardize URLs (e.g., convert to HTTPS, lowercase, strip spaces).
- Share anywhere. Custom Actions let you send
%url%
to services like LinkedIn, Mastodon, or your own tools. - Own your data. Everything is stored in your browser, not on my servers. Sync uses your Google account (optional).
Key screens
Saved URLs — your link inbox

Filter, tag, de-duplicate, export/import, and multi-select actions. Buttons include Multi-Launch, New, Paste, Remove Duplicates, Export, and more.
Save URL dialog — quick capture

Type a title, paste a URL, and click one or more tag chips. That’s it.
Options — make it yours

Use the browser’s color scheme, enable Custom Actions, show notifications, and more. Add actions that receive the
%url%
value (examples below).Context Menu History — what you grabbed from right-click

A simple list of links saved via the right-click menu with export and clean-up controls.
About — what to expect
How it works
- Save a link
- Click the toolbar button and use Save URL, or
- Right-click a link/page and choose Save to Nox URL Manager, or
- Paste multiple URLs using the Paste button on Saved URLs.
- Tag & find
- Use Tags to group related links.
- Filter by text, tag, or URL. The search box supports quick narrowing.
- Clean & standardize
- Open Tools to perform helpful bulk fixes (e.g., convert to HTTPS, lowercase URLs, trim whitespace).
- Click Remove Duplicates to de-dupe safely.
- Import/Export
- Import from Bookmarks HTML, CSV, or HTML exports.
- Export selected items or everything to take your data elsewhere.
- Custom Actions (power feature)
- In Options, enable Custom Actions and add buttons that point to any web URL.
- Use the token
%url%
which is replaced with the selected link. - Examples you can use today:
- Share to Facebook →
https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=%url%
- Share to LinkedIn →
https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url=%url%
- Share to Mastodon →
https://mastodon.social/share?text=%url%
- Share to Facebook →
- These open a small window with the URL pre-filled so you can finish the post. (No app secrets, no server round-trips.)
Privacy & security (straight talk)
- Your URLs are stored on your machine inside browser storage.
- No cloud back-end: the extension does not send your links to me or to third parties.
- Optional sync uses Google’s built-in browser sync under your account.
- No background “AI” processing of your data.
- You’re always in control: export or delete at any time.
Tip: In Options, the storage bar shows approximate usage (the browser grants ~5 MB by default, enough for thousands of links).
Licensing
- PRO license is a one-time purchase tied to your email.
- Install the PRO version on up to five (5) personal computers.
- Lifetime updates included.
(If you’re evaluating, start with the base features. You can unlock PRO on your own schedule.)
