What Email Hippo is
Email Hippo provides web and API tools for verifying email addresses, cleaning data, and assessing fraud risk. CORE checks uploaded CSV files containing up to 500,000 emails for syntax problems, disposable addresses, catch-all servers, possible spam traps, and greylisting. MORE validates addresses in real time through DNS, MX, SMTP, and other checks. INSIGHT examines email activity, risk factors, and domain details, including consumer or business classification. ASSESS returns a 0–10 Hippo risk score using signals such as domain reputation, domain age, Tor exit nodes, and IP location. Listed integrations include Auth0, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, OttoKit, Unbounce, WordPress, and Zapier, and customers can use the API in their own integrations. Plans start at $9.88 a month; CORE also offers pay-as-you-go at $9.88, paid once. There is no free plan, though a free trial is available. Monthly credits do not roll over.
