# Find a professional email: agent skill

Professional email finder API for an agent: it sends a full name and a company domain to a catalog endpoint and reads work email, verification status and confidence score back. Several providers sell the call, so the agent tries the cheapest first. You pay per call, and a failed call costs nothing.

## When it starts

- find the work email of Jane Doe at example.com
- get me a business email for this person
- who can I email at example.com

## What it asks for

- Full name of the person
- Company domain, such as example.com. Ask if you only have the company name

## How it runs

- looot discover finds the endpoint
- looot inspect shows the price and the input schema
- looot run executes it, billed per call
- Endpoints in order: tomba-email-finder, icypeas-email-find, leadmagic-people-email-finder, hunter-email-finder, anysite-api-linkedin-user-find-email-by-url

## What comes back

- Work email
- Verification status
- Confidence score
- Job title
- LinkedIn profile

## Answer rule

Give the email, its verification status and the confidence score on one line. Never present an unverified address as confirmed.

## Install

Save the skill file as /agent-skills/find-professional-emails/SKILL.md, or tell your agent: set up looot, then use /agent-skills/find-professional-emails/SKILL.md.

## How do I find someone's professional email address?

Send the person's name and the company domain to an email-finder endpoint. The provider returns the address it found, with a status or a score. Your agent can try the cheapest provider first and move on when one has no answer.

## Can I find an email from a LinkedIn profile URL?

Yes, with two of the providers here. Send the profile URL with the vanity alias, not the numeric id. One returns the email, its validity and the job title. The other accepts a LinkedIn handle in place of a name and domain.

## Why does the same name give different addresses on different providers?

Each provider holds its own data and its own checks. One may return an address it saw on a public page, another one it inferred from the company's pattern. Verify the address before you send.

## What if no provider finds an email?

Then the answer is empty and the agent says so. Most providers do not bill a search that finds nothing, and a call that fails at the provider costs you nothing.

## Is it legal to email someone I found this way?

That depends on where you and the recipient are and what you send. looot returns data from providers and gives no legal advice. Check the rules that apply to you before you run a campaign.

## How much does one person cost?

You pay per call, and the price depends on the provider your agent picks. This page reads the cheapest live price from the catalog and shows no number when the catalog is unreachable.
