Stop paying for email lookups that come back empty.

Most tools check one database. When it misses, you get "not found." Our waterfall checks 7 sources in sequence — it doesn't stop until it finds a verified email or confirms there isn't one.

You're not searching wrong. Your tool is searching once.

Every email finder on the market checks its own database. When that database doesn't have your prospect, you get "not found" — and you're stuck wondering if the email exists somewhere else.

Single-source tools
  • Check one database — if it's not there, you're done
  • Pay for Hunter, Snov.io, AND Apollo to cover gaps
  • Export from one, re-import to another, fix columns
  • 'Valid' results include catch-all domains nobody reads
  • No idea if 'not found' means the email doesn't exist or the tool just missed
7-source waterfall
  • Checks 7 sources in sequence — moves to the next when one misses
  • One lookup replaces 3 subscriptions
  • Results flow through automatically — no exports needed
  • Catch-all domains flagged so you don't waste sends
  • Every email verified before it's returned to you

Here's exactly how it works, step by step ↓

How the waterfall works

Enter a name and company. The system checks source after source until it finds a verified email — or exhausts every option.

1
Enter a name and company

Type a person's name and their company domain. Or upload a CSV with hundreds of contacts. One at a time or thousands — same process.

2
7 sources checked in sequence

Internal database, company directories, website scraping, Google search with AI extraction, email format guessing, and real-time verification. Each source feeds the next.

3
Get verified results

Every email is verified before it reaches you. You get the email, job title, confidence score, and LinkedIn profile — ready to use.

What else makes this different ↓

Not just another email finder

A pipeline that thinks like a researcher — and catches what single-source tools miss.

7-Source Waterfall

Internal databases, company directories, website scraping, Google SERP with AI extraction, email format guessing, and role-based discovery. Each source feeds into the next — nothing gets missed because one database was incomplete.

Catch-All Detection

Catch-all domains accept any email address — including fake ones. Other tools mark these as "valid." We detect them upfront and flag them so you don't waste sends on addresses that technically accept mail but nobody reads.

Decision-Maker Targeting

Prioritize CEOs, founders, owners, and presidents. Skip the generic info@ addresses and go straight to the person who signs checks. The waterfall surfaces decision-makers first, role addresses last.

Email Scoring

Every result gets a confidence score from 0 to 100. Based on verification status, source reliability, and format match. Sort by score and send to the highest-confidence contacts first.

Bulk CSV Processing

Upload a spreadsheet of companies or domains. Get back an enriched list with verified emails, job titles, LinkedIn profiles, and company data. 500 companies process in under 15 minutes.

Why I built this

I was paying for three email finders. Hunter for basic lookups, Apollo for enrichment, and a verification tool to check what the other two returned. $200 a month to do what should be one step.

The worst part wasn't the cost — it was the workflow. Search Hunter, copy the email, paste it into the verifier, wait. If Hunter said "not found," open Apollo, search again. If Apollo missed too, start Googling manually. For every prospect, the same ritual.

One day I timed myself: 4 minutes per prospect just to find and verify a single email address. For a list of 200 companies, that's 13 hours of copy-paste-wait-repeat. Not selling. Not writing emails. Just looking up email addresses.

So I built what I was doing manually — check one source, if it misses, check the next, then the next — but automatically, in seconds. Seven sources checked in sequence, verified, scored.

What took 4 minutes per prospect now takes under 3 seconds. What cost $200/month across three tools is one subscription.

Common questions

The waterfall checks: (1) our internal verified email database, (2) company directories and business databases, (3) company website scraping, (4) Google search with AI-powered extraction, (5) email format pattern matching, (6) role-based email discovery, and (7) real-time email verification. Each step only runs if the previous ones didn't find a match — so you get the fastest possible path to a verified result.

Hunter and Apollo each check their own single database. When that database doesn't have your prospect, you get "not found." The waterfall treats that as step one — it keeps going through 6 more sources automatically. The result is a significantly higher find rate without juggling multiple subscriptions.

Every email gets a score from 0 to 100 based on verification status, source reliability, and format match. A score of 90+ means the email was directly verified and is safe to send to. Scores below 70 may be role-based addresses (like info@) or couldn't be fully verified. Most users send to 80+.

A catch-all domain accepts every email address, including fake ones. If you send to [email protected], the server accepts it — but nobody reads it. Most email finders mark these as "valid" because the server didn't bounce. We detect catch-all domains upfront and flag them, so you know the difference between a genuinely verified email and one that just didn't bounce.

Yes. Upload a CSV with company names and domains. The waterfall runs on each one and returns an enriched list with verified emails, job titles, LinkedIn profiles, and confidence scores. A list of 500 companies typically processes in under 15 minutes.

No. You only use a lookup credit when we return a verified email. If the waterfall exhausts all 7 sources and doesn't find a match, it costs you nothing. You never pay for a miss.

Each result includes: verified email address, first and last name, job title, LinkedIn profile URL, confidence score (0–100), verification status (verified, role-based, or catch-all), and the source that found it. Everything you need to personalize your outreach in one lookup.

Every prospect you can't email is a deal your competitor closes.

Your list of "not found" emails is a list of revenue sitting on the table. The waterfall finds what single-source tools miss.
