    MailTester Ninja helps companies keep their contact data clean, so that campaigns, sales sequences and transactional messages reach real people. The approach is direct: rather than consulting a stored list of known addresses, the service contacts the mail server responsible for each address at the moment of the request. It validates the syntax, looks up the domain and its MX records, and runs a brief SMTP dialogue that ends before any content is transmitted. The outcome is sorted into…

    Additional Details—Pricing is a flat subscription, not a credit system: each plan gives a daily verification allowance that renews every day, so there are no credits to buy in advance and none that expire. Starter costs $6.99 per week and Pro $23.99 per month, both with 100,000 verifications a day; Ultimate costs $39.99 per month for 200,000 a day. Higher volumes are available by choosing a larger quantity at checkout (for example, five Ultimate units give 1,000,000 verifications a day). There is no setup fee and no long-term commitment: plans can be cancelled at any time. Prices are the same nominal amount in USD, EUR and GBP depending on the buyer's country, payment is by card, and Bitcoin is accepted for six-month prepaid Pro and Ultimate plans. A free tier is available to evaluate the product: free checks on the website, and free API access with up to 50 checks a day using a free token, or 10 a day without any signup.

    The scenario we most commonly use Hunter for is to quickly find and retrieve contact email information. Phone numbers are an added bonus, but they tend to only be available for contacts in the US. SDRs have the extension in order to confirm or to help them "guess" as to what a contact's email address might be. This speeds up our prospecting time considerably. Where Hunter falls short is not being flexible where companies have more than one email format.

    Pros
    Hunter
    • Hunter provides a quick and easy way to look up the email format for any company using the free Google Chrome extension.
    • Hunter allows you to upload a bulk list of emails and verify them easily.
    • Hunter shows where verified emails were found on web pages and PDF documents. This shows that the emails were published by trusted sources.

    Cons
    Hunter
    • Hunter is only as valuable as the information it is able to scrape from the internet. If a company has not listed any email addresses online, then Hunter is not going to be able to find it.
    • Sometimes Hunter is only able to identify non-personal-specific email addresses (ex: info @, support@, etc.). This makes it difficult to identify personnel emails
    • Sometimes companies will have different email domains that Hunter is not able to correlate. For example, when searching for an email address at Lead.com, Hunter is not able to point to ParentCompany.com email addresses that would be more useful.

    Usability
    Hunter
    I think the features are good, but it makes my brain hurt (and feel overtaxed) when I have to jump between searching by name and domain and then searching via a specific email to verify. I wish I could do all of that from one landing page, one über search bar.

    Hunter is a good all in one solution, which hasnt always been the case as it used to be a daa only solution. However, other tools like lemlist as slightly more user friendly and make it so simple to build and launch multi-channel campaigns , and do this slightly better than Hunter.
