About Hunter

Hunter is mainly an email finder for professional contacts; its verifier is one part of a wider lead-generation suite. It can suit sales teams that mostly need to find new professional addresses and verify a few of them.

Why people choose Mailcut

  • No subscription: buy credits once, use them within 12 months, nothing renews.
  • Free credits to start, so you can test your own list before you pay.
  • Price per 1,000 verifications from $:price on the largest pack; the more you buy at once, the lower the price.
  • Syntax, domain and MX, disposable address and SMTP mailbox checks, plus deduplication.
  • Single checks, bulk lists and an API, in English and Turkish.

How to compare fairly

Prices change often, so we do not quote other vendors here. Convert every offer to a price per 1,000 verifications at your own volume, check whether unused credits expire or a plan renews on its own, and test the same sample file in each tool. If you clean a list a few times a year, a pay-as-you-go pack is often simpler than a monthly plan.

Try it in five minutes

  1. Export a sample of your list (a few hundred rows is enough).
  2. Verify it with Mailcut using your free credits.
  3. Compare the statuses with your current tool.
  4. Buy the pack that fits your list size and upload the full file.
  5. Come back for more credits only when you need them.
