What It Does

From an Email to a Full Digital Footprint

Validity & Deliverability

Verify that an email address is real, properly formatted, and deliverable. Detect disposable addresses, role-based accounts, and catch-all domains.

🚨

Breach Exposure

Check whether the email has appeared in known data breaches or leaked credential databases. Use this signal as a high-priority risk indicator.

🌐

Domain Risk Scoring

Analyze the email domain for disposable providers, newly registered domains, spam history, and domain age. Returns a normalized risk score.

🔗

Linked Social Profiles

Discover social media accounts, forums, and public web presence connected to the email address. Useful for identity verification and OSINT.

👤

Identity Confidence

Returns a composite confidence score (0–10) based on the breadth and consistency of signals found. Higher scores indicate more verifiable identities.

📊

Marketing Hygiene

Validate contact lists, detect invalid addresses, and filter high-risk domains before outreach. Improves deliverability and CRM data quality.
