An email validation service with bulk list cleaning, a real-time API, email scoring and deliverability tools. Partly. looot covers some of the jobs and not others.

## What ZeroBounce does and what looot covers

- Verify one email in real time: covered. Providers: millionverifier, bounceban, leadmagic, zerobounce, scrubby, hunter.
- Clean a whole list: partial. Providers: bounceban, scrubby. Two providers take a batch; with the others your agent checks the list one email per call.
- Find a person's work email: covered. Providers: hunter, findymail, tomba, icypeas.
- Inbox placement and warmup: not covered. looot sends no email, so it cannot test or warm up an inbox.
- Blacklist and DMARC monitoring: not covered. Watching a domain needs scheduled runs, not available yet.

## Agent prompt to replace ZeroBounce

Use looot to verify the email addresses I give you, mark each one as valid, invalid, catch-all or unknown, and return only the safe ones as a table. If you have not yet, set up https://looot.ai/skill.md first. Then search the looot catalog for each step, check the price of each endpoint before you call it, run the cheapest one that fits, and show me the results as a table.

## Can an AI agent replace ZeroBounce?

Partly. An agent running looot can do some of what ZeroBounce does through catalog endpoints, and the page marks the jobs it cannot do.

## Is there a free ZeroBounce alternative?

looot has no monthly seat. You pay per call to the provider you pick, and the catalog shows each endpoint's price before you run it. Whether that comes out cheaper than ZeroBounce depends on your volume.

## What does ZeroBounce cost?

List prices change, so check ZeroBounce's own pricing page. This page does not repeat them. The looot side is read live from the catalog on the web version of this page.

## Which ZeroBounce features does looot not cover?

Not covered: inbox placement and warmup, blacklist and dmarc monitoring. Keep ZeroBounce for those, or use another tool beside looot.

Paste the agent prompt on this page into your coding agent. It sets up looot, finds the endpoints for each job and runs them. You can edit the prompt to match your own inputs.

## Do I need a ZeroBounce account to use looot?

No. looot calls its own providers and does not connect to your ZeroBounce account. Your existing ZeroBounce data stays where it is.

Yes. ZeroBounce validation is one of the email verification providers in the looot catalog, next to MillionVerifier, BounceBan, LeadMagic, Scrubby and Hunter. Your agent picks one per email and pays per check.
