Why RocketVerifier

Everything included, on every plan

No feature gating and no surprises on your invoice. Every plan gets the full platform.

  • A reason for every result

    Status, sub_status, score and provider on every address, so you know exactly why it passed or failed.

  • Verdicts on catch-all domains

    Accept-all addresses get send_safe, send_with_caution or avoid instead of a blanket unknown.

  • Pay only for clear answers

    Unknown results and duplicate addresses are never charged. Connect your sending platform and every hard bounce on an address we marked deliverable is refunded automatically.

  • Credits never expire

    Pay-as-you-go credits stay until you use them. Monthly and yearly plans roll unused credits over.

  • RocketShield on every plan

    Stop disposable, mistyped and undeliverable signups at the form with one script tag.

  • MCP server and SDKs

    Verify from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor, or build with the Node.js and Python SDKs, CLI and REST API.
