Kitt actions

Verify email

Verify an email address in real time and get its validity, SMTP status, and a reason when invalid. Required fields:
  • Email: The email address to verify
Credits: 0.05 credits per request Use case: Clean prospect lists before sequencing to protect sender reputation and reduce bounces.

Best practices

  • Verify emails right after enrichment, before they enter any outreach sequence
  • Branch workflows on the returned validity and reason to route risky addresses separately
  • Cache results to avoid re-verifying the same address repeatedly
  • High-volume runs are handled for you: Cargo spreads requests within the connector’s rate limit (100 per second)
