How it works

From messy CSV to clean list in four steps

No setup calls, no integrations required. Most lists finish verifying in minutes.

  1. Upload or paste

    Drop a CSV or paste from a spreadsheet. Duplicates are removed at import, so you never pay twice.

  2. We check every address

    Syntax, domain and mailbox-level checks. Nothing is ever sent to your contacts.

  3. Review verdicts

    Valid, invalid, risky, catch-all or unknown — each with the reason attached.

  4. Export the clean list

    Filter to valid-only in one click, then load the clean file into your sending tool.

Verdicts

Five verdicts. No jargon.

Valid

What it means
The mailbox exists and accepts mail.
What to do
Keep it — send with confidence.

Features

Everything a list cleaning needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Built around one job: telling you which addresses deserve your sending budget.

Bulk CSV verification

Upload lists of 500,000+ rows — large files stream in the background while you watch live progress. No row limits per file, no babysitting.

Pay per verify

One credit checks one address, and credits never expire. No subscription, no monthly minimum, no meter running while you sleep.

Single-email quick check

Paste one address, get a verdict in seconds. Handy for checking a signup before it hits your CRM or a reply-to before you commit.

Catch-all & disposable detection

We flag domains that accept everything and mailboxes built to expire in ten minutes. Both quietly wreck engagement stats if you let them through.

Role-address flagging

info@, sales@, and support@ addresses reach shared inboxes, not people. We mark them so you can keep them out of personal-touch campaigns.

Filtered exports

Export the whole result set or just the valid addresses — one click either way. Every row carries its verdict, sub-status, and score.

Who it's for

Wherever bounces cost you money

Marketers

Your newsletter list has been collecting addresses for three years, and last month's bounce rate crept past 3%.

Agencies

A new client hands you a 'great list' of 80,000 contacts with no export date and no opt-in records.

Ecommerce

Checkout typos and throwaway addresses pile up all year, and your abandoned-cart flow quietly bounces against a slice of them.

SaaS teams

Signups arrive with typos and disposable addresses, and the onboarding sequence never lands for a chunk of your trials.

Sales teams

Your SDRs pull prospect emails from a dozen sources, and every bounced sequence step nudges your domain toward the spam folder.

Pricing

Pay for verifications. Nothing else.

Prepaid credit packs — one credit verifies one address. No subscription, no renewal date, no surprise invoice.

FAQ

Questions people actually ask

Straight answers — including the ones other verification tools dodge.

Above roughly 2%, start watching closely — mailbox providers notice. Above 5%, they actively throttle or block you, and recovering a damaged domain takes weeks. Cleaning before you send is far cheaper than repairing after.

A catch-all domain accepts mail for any address, real or not, so the specific mailbox can't be confirmed from the outside. No service can fully verify a catch-all — anyone who claims otherwise is guessing. We label them plainly so you can segment and watch engagement instead of gambling a whole send on them.

No. Buy a pack today, use it whenever your next list shows up. There's no subscription and no clock running.

For addresses that come back valid or invalid, accuracy runs in the high 90s. But some mail servers simply refuse to answer clearly — those come back as unknown, and we tell you rather than folding them into a prettier number. An honest unknown beats a confident guess.

Never. Verification happens at the infrastructure level — syntax checks, DNS and MX lookups, and mailbox-level conversations with the receiving server. Your contacts never see anything, and nothing lands in their inbox.

Your lists are yours. We store them and their results only so you can review and export; delete a list — or your account — anytime and the data goes with it. We never sell or share your addresses. Details in the privacy policy.

Yes — one click. Filter the results to any verdict and export exactly that slice, or grab the full file with every verdict, sub-status, and score attached.

We dedupe at import, before verification starts, and the duplicates cost you nothing. You pay one credit per unique address — never twice for the same one.

Payments run through Stripe and accept major cards. If you change your mind, unused credits from a pack purchase are refundable within 14 days — see the refund policy for the details.
