Questions
Is Pequod a Hunter alternative?+
Hunter Domain Search is a directory of emails on a domain. We return the person for the role you named. Pack, not a monthly seat.
How is the email verified?+
We verify the mailbox on this run, with an identity check. Hunter returns a confidence score. Sendable is not permission to send.
Hunter finds every generic in one click. Why you?+
That is their job. Naming the owner of a local restaurant is ours.
Is there a free plan?+
No free plan. The demo on this page is free: up to three domains, no sign-up. After that, the smallest pack is €49 for 500 credits that never expire.
Sendable means we verified the mailbox just now. Whether you may write is still yours. Legal
