LinkedIn lookup

Company emails
Find up to 20 verified emails at any company domain.
Decision maker

Why free verification matters
Most free email finders pull from a database that was last updated weeks or months ago. A share of those emails have already bounced — the person left the company, the domain changed, or the mailbox was deactivated. When you send to bounced addresses, your sender reputation drops and future emails land in spam.
emailfinder.dev's free tier includes the same live SMTP verification as the paid tier. For every lookup, the API connects to the company's mail server and confirms the mailbox is active right now. If it cannot confirm, it returns nothing and charges nothing. You get fewer total lookups than Apollo's 10,000-per-month free tier — but every one you get is confirmed deliverable.

How is this different from other free email finders?
