Email Verifier and Bulk Email Validator, $1 per 1,000 Emails

Validate any email address with five-stage verification: syntax check, MX lookup, SMTP handshake, catch-all detection, and disposable / role-based flagging. Returns a verdict (valid / invalid / risky / unknown), a 0-100 confidence score, the MX provider, and reason codes. Built for bulk: pass a 100,000-row list and it returns a clean roster ready for outreach. Ideal for cold email hygiene, lead-list cleansing, signup form protection, and CRM deliverability cleanup.
