Best email verifier for lemlist: 7 options compared

Which email verifier should I use for lemlist?

What it is

Email verification with a real SMTP mailbox check: each address comes back valid, risky or invalid with a reason. Includes an email finder on Pro and up.

Price per check

Starter $9/mo for 2,500 ($3.60 per 1,000); Pro $39/mo, 100,000 a month at full speed ($0.39 per 1,000 when used), then slower, never cut off. Business $99/mo with 300,000 at full speed; Agency $249/mo with 750,000 at full speed.

One-time packs

10,000 for $15 ($1.50 per 1,000); 25,000 for $29 ($1.16 per 1,000); 50,000 for $49 ($0.98 per 1,000); 100,000 for $79 ($0.79 per 1,000); 250,000 for $169 ($0.68 per 1,000). Credits never expire, run at standard speed, CSV verification only (no API or finder).

Free checks

First 100 email checks free with a Google sign-in, no card, once per account. Single checks on the free email checker need no account.

Billing

Monthly subscription, cancel anytime (yearly billing optional). One-time packs are listed above. Starter allowances reset monthly and do not roll over.

Speed today

One sending IP today, shared by every customer: about 13,000 mailbox checks a day in the standard lane. Bad syntax, dead domains and disposable addresses return at once; a list of 100,000 takes days, not hours, and each job shows its estimated finish time.

Catch-all handling

Catch-all (accept-all) addresses stay risky, never valid, and are graded higher, medium or lower likelihood with the reasons. Anything a mail server does not confirm is risky.

API and MCP

REST API on Pro, Business and Agency (Pro includes 10,000 calls a month, then $1.50 per 1,000). Remote MCP server with 6 tools for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and VS Code. No API on Starter.

Integrations

Connects to Instantly, Smartlead, HubSpot and Mailchimp by API key: verifies a campaign or list and tags each contact with its result. CSV in and out for any other tool.

Phone

Free phone format checks (country, type range). Live carrier and line-type lookups come with Pro + Phone at $49.99/mo (5,000 a month). It never says a number is in service.

What it does not do

No sending, warmup or inbox placement tests. No published accuracy benchmark against other verifiers. Catch-all domains, Yahoo and AOL cannot be confirmed, and Outlook.com and Hotmail mailboxes are not probed while Microsoft refuses checks from our server's network: all of these come back risky, never valid.

SimpleVerifier facts from our pricing page and product. Last updated October 31, 2026.

Which one should you pick?

• Pick DeBounce if you want a low price on a one-off clean of a small or medium list, with pay-as-you-go credits that never expire.

• Pick Clearout if you pay yearly and also want an email finder and prospecting on the same credit balance.

• Pick Bouncer if you also want inbox placement and blocklist tests from the same vendor (its Deliverability Kit is a separate plan).

• Pick lemlist's own finder and verifier if your leads are found inside lemlist and you want finding and verifying in the same plan.

• Pick EmailListVerify if you verify a steady 5,000 to 10,000 addresses a month ($16 a month for 5,000), or want pay-as-you-go credits that never expire.

• Pick SimpleVerifier if you verify or re-check lists every month and want one flat monthly price instead of credits, with catch-all addresses kept risky rather than marked valid.

  Skip SimpleVerifier if you want the lowest price for one small list, where another vendor's pack can cost less (cost by list size); you need your data processed only inside the EU (our service providers process data in several countries, including the US); or your list is mostly Outlook.com, Hotmail or Live addresses, which Microsoft currently won't let us confirm, so they come back risky (why).

• Pick MillionVerifier if you clean a very large list once in a while: 1,000,000 credits are $449 one-time, never expire, and there is no subscription to cancel.

How we compared

On 27 October 2026 we read each vendor's integrations page or help center for lemlist (prices were read the same day), and list those pages under each tool. "None found" means we did not find one that day, not that it is impossible: most tools also have an API or Zapier. NeverBounce returned a bot check instead of its page, so that row says "not confirmed". We checked 10 verifiers; to keep the table short it shows the ones that list a lemlist connection and the lowest-priced CSV options, and leaves out NeverBounce, Emailable, Kickbox, ZeroBounce and Hunter, which are in the main roundup. We did not run an accuracy benchmark, so nothing here ranks accuracy: test a shortlist on a sample of your own list, including addresses you know are dead.

Common questions

How do I verify lemlist contacts with SimpleVerifier?

There is no lemlist connector, so it is a CSV round trip. Export: In lemlist, go to Campaigns and open the campaign. Open the Leads list tab, and apply Filters if you need a subset. Tick the top checkbox to select every lead shown, or tick individual leads. Click Export as .CSV in the bulk actions bar. Upload that file to SimpleVerifier as it is; the email column is found automatically. You get three files, valid, risky and invalid, each with every original column, so import the valid file back into lemlist. The export steps follow lemlist's help article; the full lemlist export guide has the details.

Does lemlist verify emails itself?

Its pricing page lists an email finder and verifier as part of lemlist plans. An outside verifier is useful when leads come from somewhere else, or when you want catch-all addresses kept apart as risky before they reach a campaign.

Which verifiers list a lemlist integration?

On 27 October 2026, DeBounce, Clearout and Bouncer listed lemlist on their own integrations pages. NeverBounce's site blocked our check that day. SimpleVerifier's own lemlist connector is in beta (request access); until then the free CSV import formatter reshapes a verified file into lemlist's import columns.

Is the cheapest verifier the most accurate?

We did not run an accuracy benchmark, so nothing here ranks accuracy: test a shortlist on a sample of your own list, including addresses you know are dead.
