Emailable (formerly Kickbox) provides a clean API and developer-friendly experience. But when it comes to the checks that actually matter — catch-all resolution, spam trap detection, and deliverability scoring — Emailable leaves gaps that cost you bounces. VerifyHQ matches the developer experience while going 6 layers deeper on every email.

Why Switch
Why teams switch from Emailable
Catch-all resolution that works
Emailable flags catch-all domains but can't tell you if the actual mailbox exists. VerifyHQ resolves catch-all addresses to real mailbox validity.
Deliverability score + tier system
Emailable gives "deliverable" or "risky." VerifyHQ gives a 0–100 score and a clear Safe / Risky / Bad tier so you can tune your send threshold precisely.
Spam trap & abuse detection
VerifyHQ identifies spam traps, abuse addresses, and toxic emails. Emailable doesn't flag these signals — leaving your sender reputation exposed.
More affordable at every scale
VerifyHQ starts at $9.99/mo for 10K credits with free credits on signup. Emailable's pricing scales steeply beyond small volumes.
