FAQ
Questions teams ask before switching.
How accurate is Mailtrue compared to NeverBounce or ZeroBounce?+
We benchmarked one million mixed-quality emails against both providers. Mailtrue matched or beat them on every category and caught 14% more catch-all risks. We're happy to share the full benchmark on request.
Do you store the emails I verify?+
Never by default. Verification results are cached for 24 hours via salted hash only — so repeated lookups don't burn credits — and you can disable caching entirely with one toggle. SOC 2 Type II, GDPR-compliant.
How fast is the API?+
15ms median, 180ms p99 for the real-time endpoint. Fast enough to drop into a signup form without spinners. Bulk CSV runs at ~1M emails per hour.
Can I switch from NeverBounce without rewriting my code?+
Yes. Our /v1/verify endpoint accepts the same request shape and returns a compatible response. Most teams change one base URL and one API key.
What happens if I run out of credits?+
Nothing breaks. Your API keeps responding with a 402 you can handle gracefully. Auto top-up is available on paid plans.
