# Email verification cost calculator: run it free, or from your agent

Cost to verify your emails with each provider, and the cost per successful check, from looot's own 30-day run data.

## Cost per provider

11 providers ranked for people.email.verify on 42,432 looot calls in the last 30 days, read 2026-11-11 18:50 UTC. Totals are for 1,000 emails; the web page takes any count. Ranked by cost per successful call, then success rate, then speed. A provider needs 20 calls in the last 30 days to be ranked, the same floor as the benchmark pages.

- Filtrat: Charged only for a definite answer (valid or invalid). Unknown, risky, unresolved catch-all and repeat checks cost nothing, so your total can be lower. Resolving a catch-all costs five times the price.

## How this works

Benchmark for this job: https://looot.ai/benchmarks/people-email-verify

- Cost per successful check = price per check / success rate. You pay for every call, so failed calls raise what each answer costs.
- Total = price per check x number of emails. Monthly: per year = per month x 12.
- Data: every people.email.verify call made through looot in the last 30 days, read 2026-11-11 18:50 UTC. The same numbers as the benchmark page for this job.
- Success rate: the share of calls the provider answered without an error. An empty answer counts as an answer. It does not check that the data is right.
- Ranked by cost per successful call, then success rate, then speed. A provider needs 20 calls in the last 30 days to be ranked, the same floor as the benchmark pages.
- Price: what looot charges per call, in US dollars, from a prepaid balance. A row with a note bills fewer calls than that, so its total is the most you would pay.
- Source: GET https://api.looot.ai/v1/public-catalog/<endpoint>?stats=1 for each endpoint, and the public catalog for prices.

## Prompt

Use looot to price people.email.verify for [number] emails. 1. Set up https://looot.ai/skill.md. 2. Search the catalog for job people.email.verify and inspect each provider's price per call. 3. Divide each price by its 30-day success rate. 4. Return one table: provider, price, success rate, cost per success and the total for my count, cheapest per success first.

## What it needs

How many emails you have, and whether that is every month

## What comes back

- price per check for each provider
- success rate and cost per successful check
- total for your emails, per month and per year when you pick monthly
- median time and run count from looot's last 30 days

## Endpoints and providers

None. The tool on the web page runs in the browser and calls no endpoint.

## What it costs

Nothing. The tool on the web page runs in the visitor's browser: no account, no API call and no limit per hour. The prompt above runs the same job from your own looot account with current data, billed per call.

## Budget a list clean

Type the size of the list you are about to send to and see what checking every address costs with each provider.

## Pick on price and speed

A cheap provider that fails often costs more per answer. The table ranks by cost per successful check and shows the median time next to it.

## Plan a monthly volume

Pick monthly to see the bill for a steady flow of sign ups or new leads, per month and per year.

## Hand it to your agent

Run people.email.verify from your agent with fallback on. looot picks a provider that can answer and tries the next on a miss.

## How is the cost per successful check worked out?

It is the price per check divided by the success rate. A provider that answers 8 calls in 10 costs 1.25 times its price for each answered check, because you pay for the failed calls too.

## Where do the numbers come from?

From every people.email.verify call made through looot in the last 30 days, the same data as the benchmark page for this job. Prices are what looot charges per call from a prepaid balance. The page prints the date it read them.

## Why does a provider say not enough calls to rank?

A provider needs 20 calls in the last 30 days to be ranked, the same floor as the benchmark pages. Below that, a few calls move the success rate too much to compare.

## What does the success rate count?

The share of calls the provider answered without an error. An empty answer counts as an answer. It does not check that the data is right, and calls that failed on looot's side are left out.

## Is the calculator free?

Yes, free with no account. The math runs in your browser and makes no API call. The numbers come from looot's public catalog, read at most once an hour.

## How do I check my emails from my agent?

Connect the looot MCP server and run endpointId "job:people.email.verify" with fallback on. looot picks a provider that can answer now and tries the next on a miss. You see the price before each call and pay from a prepaid balance.

## What is the cheapest email verification API?

The first row of the table is the cheapest per successful check on looot's own runs in the last 30 days. The lowest price per check is not always the cheapest per answer: a provider that fails more often costs more for each answered check.

## Does an unknown or catch-all result cost money?

The table shows looot's price per check for each provider, and a row says so when the provider's rule differs. Filtrat charges only for a definite answer (valid or invalid), so an unknown, risky or unresolved catch-all address costs nothing there.
