Email Verifier

Check whether an email address is valid with the Email Verifier, one at a time or in bulk on paid plans, and see how verification credits work.

The Email Verifier lets you check whether an email address is valid before reaching out — available directly from your SalesQL dashboard.

How to verify a single email

Go to the Email Verifier in your dashboard

To understand why an address was marked valid or invalid, click See Details for a full breakdown across four checks:

  • Format — whether the address syntax is correct
  • Type — whether the domain is a professional domain or a webmail/temporary email provider
  • Server status — whether MX records are present and the mail server is reachable
  • Email status — whether the mailbox exists and can receive emails

Each check returns Valid or Invalid, along with a short explanation.

Bulk verification

Upload a CSV list or paste multiple addresses to verify them all at once. Bulk verification is available on paid plans only.

Who can use this feature?

All users can verify emails individually. Bulk verification requires an active paid plan.

Verification credits

Email verification uses a separate credit pool from your Data credits (the ones used when retrieving contact information). Each email you verify consumes one credit, regardless of whether the result is valid or invalid. This applies to both single and bulk verification.

To check your verification credits, go to your Analytics

"Credits Usage" analytics with "Analytics" in the sidebar and the "Total Email verifier" credits highlighted

Can I verify phone numbers with this tool?

No. The Email Verifier is for email addresses only.
