Business development Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Fast, affordable, and actually catches the bad emails" August 21, 2026 5.0 We switched over from a more expensive competitor to cut costs, expecting a slight drop in quality, but Proofy actually performed better. Our deliverability has been rock solid ever since. If you're sending high-volume email and need a reliable, budget-friendly way to keep your lists clean, this is a no-brainer. Pros Crazy accurate: It catches risky catch-all addresses that other tools usually mark as safe. Great pricing: The pay-as-you-go credits don't expire, which is huge if you don't need a monthly subscription. Bulk processing: Handled a massive list for us in one sitting without freezing or crashing. Simple API: Took our developer about 20 minutes to hook it up to our website sign-up forms. Cons The interface isn't super flashy, but it's simple enough that anyone on the team can use it without training. Review Source R Reviewer CEO Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A great surprise!" July 29, 2026 5.0 I was looking for an email verification app and found this gem at a more than reasonable price! Many thanks to the development team—you're really helping me out a lot! Pros The best price I found. The service is quite fast and effective. Being able to pay per use is fantastic. It is quite intuitive to use, the learning curve is practically immediate, and everything is very simple. Cons I'm quite new to using this platform; I haven't found anything I don't like yet. I haven't experienced any bugs or issues so far. Review Source R Reviewer Intern Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Great product for a great value" July 10, 2026 5.0 Proofy has really upped my game and allowed me to work quickly and efficiently when contacting owners because of its phenomenal and reliable email verification. There appear to be other features to the app that I haven't looked into yet, so there may be even more pleasant surprises in store for me. Pros Proofy has been essential to maximizing the work that I am doing in terms of proprietary sourcing and contact verification. It's a load off my shoulders to know that I can trust this app to verify emails for me quickly and efficiently. Cons Being an early user, I haven't really explored all of the features that this product has to offer, but for the time being it is serving very nicely. Review Source Vladislavs V. CEO Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Good so far" June 8, 2026 5.0 Pros Value for money - I've compared different options and seems like 1000 credits for 5$ is quite good. They also give you some free credits in the beginning Cons Nothing so far. i'm a new user and haven't seen anything that is not working or that is misleading. they also had 40% off Review Source R Reviewer Proofy - All good Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Proofy - All good" June 8, 2026 5.0 Pros I've tried just about every email verification tool out there, and Proofy is the one that stuck. I run lead gen for a small agency, mostly B2B SaaS clients, and bad data used to be the silent killer of our campaigns — bounces piling up, domains getting flagged, the whole thing. Proofy fixed that without making me jump through hoops. You drop in your list, it sorts everything into clean buckets: deliverable, risky, unknown, catch-all, the stuff that actually matters. No guessing. What really won me over is how little friction there is. So many of these platforms bury the actual feature under five tabs of "premium insights" you didn't ask for and a popup begging you to upgrade. Proofy just does the job. And the pricing is honest — pay for what you use, no mystery tiers, no surprise charges at checkout. After getting burned by a couple of the big-name verifiers that treat every feature like an add-on, that transparency feels almost rare. If you're sending cold email at any kind of volume and you're skipping verification, you're basically gambling with your domain reputation. Proofy makes it cheap and simple enough that there's really no reason to skip it. Cons That I didn't find it sooner. Proofy makes it cheap and simple enough that there's really no reason to skip it. Review Source Deylan R. CEO Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Best Tool Ever" May 6, 2026 5.0 Proofy has become a go-to in my workflow. I manage outreach for multiple clients in the home services space and list quality is everything — a dirty list tanks your sender rep fast. Proofy makes the whole process effortless. Upload your list, get a clean breakdown of valid, invalid, duplicates, and role-based addresses, done. No bloated dashboard, no upsell every time you click something. The pricing is the most straightforward I've seen — you know exactly what you're paying and what you're getting. Honestly refreshing compared to the bigger names in this space that nickel and dime you. If you're running any kind of outbound email operation and you're not cleaning your lists, you're leaving deliverability on the table. Proofy makes it easy enough that there's no excuse not to Cons That I didn't find it sooner. Would've saved me a lot of money on overpriced alternatives. Love this software Review Source R Reviewer Empresário Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "an essential tool to improve email deliverability" April 1, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Proofy has been very positive. The platform delivers exactly what it promises, allowing me to validate email lists quickly, easily, and efficiently. Since I started using it, I have noticed a clear improvement in my cold email deliverability, along with a significant reduction in bounce rates. This directly helps maintain a healthy domain reputation. It’s a tool that fits perfectly into my prospecting process and one that I use regularly. Pros What I liked most about Proofy is the accuracy of its email verification and how easy the platform is to use. In just a few minutes, I can upload a list, analyze the results, and export only valid contacts. This greatly improves my email deliverability and helps protect my domain reputation. Additionally, the pricing is affordable and the system remains fast even with larger lists. Cons From my point of view, there is nothing significant to improve. The platform’s layout is very minimalist, straightforward, and easy to understand, which makes it very practical for daily use. As a suggestion, it could be interesting to add a language switching feature to better serve users from different countries.

March 30, 2026 4.0 I had a great experience, the interface is really intuitive and easy to use and there are different options depending on your volume of emails with the bulk verifier thing that I find particularly helpful for my case Pros I got the best accuracy emails, even more than with most much more expensive platforms. And I was even able to achieve a 0% bounce rate ! Cons I did have to make the emails go through the verifier 2 times becauss there were still some bad ones after the first use but everything was clean after the second. So that is just a little something the proffy team should think about. Review Source R Reviewer Systems Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Proofy Email Verification " March 16, 2026 5.0 Pros Easy to use platform with a the capability to upload CSV files directly. The price point on this service is also unbeatable. Cons I searched for contact solutions for awhile trying to find the best way to filter out inaccurate emails and Proofy did not come up automatically as a top choice However, they are worth the digging and I am glad I found them for my contacts project. Review Source Denis S. Ceo Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Fast and Accurate Email Verification Platform" March 13, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Proofy has been very positive. The platform is reliable, easy to use, and very effective for cleaning email lists and improving deliverability. It helped reduce bounce rates and maintain a better sender reputation for our email campaigns. Pros What I liked most about Proofy was how easy it is to validate email lists and improve campaign deliverability. The platform is fast, simple to use, and helps reduce bounce rates while maintaining the domain’s reputation. Cons One downside is that the pricing can become a bit expensive when verifying very large email lists. However, the quality of the verification usually compensates for that. Review Source MoFajjaL S. Professional Freelancer Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Results are improving but not good enough yet" January 21, 2022 2.0 Pros I do a lot of email marketing, so, regularly have to validate bunch of emails. I have used a lot of validation tools over the years. And, Proofy is not among the good ones I have used. The only thing I liked about them is their customer service is good, they act fast and give solutions quick. Cons The results aren't that good. They have improved a bit, but not good enough yet. Still have a long way to go. But the thing is, in email marketing you don't get much of a second chance, so, I don't know if I and my team will try Proofy again soon. Review Source R Reviewer Video Editor Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Good product for freelancers" January 7, 2026 5.0 Really nice tool , if your a freelancer like me its a life saver to protect your emails from backlisting coz of hard and soft email bounce Pros its really nice budget friendly email verifier APIs are pretty smooth to work with dont break easily Cons using it in google sheets app script it might cause timeout coz sometimes it takes little longer for huge data rows Review Source R Reviewer Owner Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Reliable, trusted, and cost-effective tool for verifying emails consistently!" January 7, 2026 5.0 The user experience, the speed of verification, the results of verification, and the cost is really good. I've tried so many apps before but Proofy is extremely reliable and I can count on it to verify thousands of leads. Pros It's easy to use. Credits never expire even after updating to a new app. Proofy just gave all the credits and they passed off all the credits. Cons I have found no problems in Proofy. Usually the biggest problems when it comes to similar tools is the accuracy of the tools but the accuracy of Proofy is very high. Review Source Ze D. Founder Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Clean interface and fast verification process" March 13, 2026 5.0 So far, my experience has been smooth and efficient. The setup is quick, the interface is clean, and the verification results are delivered promptly. Even in the trial phase, it feels like a practical solution for improving email list hygiene and reducing potential delivery issues. The tool saves time, protects sender reputation, and increases confidence when launching campaigns. For teams that care about long-term deliverability and list hygiene, it’s a solid and reliable solution. Pros I recently started testing Proofy and my first impression is very positive. The platform is straightforward and easy to navigate. Uploading a list is simple, and the verification process is fast. What stood out to me is how clearly the results are categorized, which makes it easier to understand the quality of the email list before launching a campaign. For anyone working with email marketing, having this level of clarity is very useful. Cons Since I’m still in the early stages of using the platform, I haven’t explored all features yet. It would be helpful to have more built-in guidance or short walkthroughs for new users to maximize the tool from day one. Review Source R Reviewer Director Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Best Instant verification tool with 100 Free credit" January 2, 2025 5.0 Very Good, easy to navigate verify API is useful Pros Instant result category after uploading data Cons High unknown emails category in the list Review Source R Reviewer Admin Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Smooth Experience" January 6, 2025 5.0 Great, most of the time I enjoy and accuracy is quite good. Pros Very user friendly and smooth onboarding Cons There is no option for me to manually input the emails, always must attach a file, can be troublesome sometimes if I just want a quick check. Review Source R Reviewer Art Director Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Pay as you go is amazing!" December 31, 2024 5.0 Pay as you go is so amazing!, that it overways any cons that the platform may have. Pros The fact of pay-as-you-go pricing. Let's say I need to verify 10k emails – I just purchased the amount I need to verify without a subscription. Cons The UI could be better, as now it looks kind of oldschool. Review Source R Reviewer Email Verifaction Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Proofy is used for email verification." May 30, 2024 5.0 My overall experience with Proofy has been positive. The platform offers efficient email verification services with a user-friendly interface, providing quick and accurate results. While there may be some room for improvement in terms of pricing plans and additional features, I've found Proofy to be reliable and effective for maintaining the quality of email lists. Pros The user-friendly interface, comprehensive verification features, quick turnaround time, and reliable accuracy of Proofy's email verification services stand out as key highlights. Cons The limitations in terms of pricing plans and the absence of certain advanced features could be areas for improvement in Proofy. Review Source Chad B. Sr Developer Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Solid product for verifying email deliverability" November 2, 2022 5.0 Using their API was simple. We were able to quickly write our own extensible minimal abstraction layer for integrating it into our current application. Pros An available API was critical for us. We needed to be able to write a real-time check of email deliverability so that we reject bad addresses BEFORE they make it to our list. The other handy feature is that you can screen a current list in bulk very easily simply by uploading it and letting Proofy run the batch for you. Cons There wasn't anything that I didn't specifically like. If I had to pick something, other similar APIs generally have a single query. Proofy's process is 2-stage - you query, it gives you an ID, and then you check the ID for the email status. So that's an extra step. (However, that can actually be a plus, because it seems like they store that data for later use - hence the ID they give you) Review Source CG Cameron G. Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Proofy: The affordable yet accurate necessity for every successful outbound sales email sequence" April 26, 2023 5.0 Despite our best efforts to double check all sales contacts email addresses upon entering the CRM, we have had a large influx of less-than-stellar email addresses resulting in a quickly increasing bounce rate and ultimately, a spam violation from Google. It appears that a vast majority of these imported contact email addresses fall into the catch-all domain section which is a highly gray area for email validation reporting. Thanks to Proofy, we now know which ones are solid and which need to be removed as we work to tighten up our lead lists and immediately reduce our overall bounce rate to a much more appropriate and healthy level. Pros ease of use, bulk email validation, additional services for total sender reputation health accuracy, pricing seems much better than many other competitors Cons Not really an issue with Proofy but rather the general use of "credits" I often find a bit cheesy. While I understand this is likely a better way to deal with most customers, I'm a big fan of just a standard subscription with an unlimited option. Sure, we may not need all the stuff or validations, but it's better to have and not need than to need and not have. Review Source Maxime P. Marketing digital Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Review Maxime TDR" September 11, 2024 5.0 Overall, my experience with Proofy has been very positive. It’s a reliable tool that has helped me clean my email lists efficiently and boost my campaign performance. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable and effective email verification solution. Pros What I liked most about Proofy was its ease of use and accuracy. The interface is clean and straightforward, making it easy to upload and verify email lists quickly. The results are delivered fast, and I found the accuracy of the email verification to be very high, which helped improve our email deliverability rates significantly. Cons One thing I liked least about Proofy is that it occasionally takes a bit longer to verify larger lists. While this isn't a dealbreaker, it would be great if the speed could be more consistent across different list sizes. Review Source Lotus B. Developer Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Probably the best tool for email validation" October 6, 2023 5.0 If you're seeking to enhance your email lists, it's advisable to give Proofy.io some thought. It proves to be effective, easy to use, and delivers measurable outcomes. I strongly endorse it. Pros Their email verification service is straightforward and exceptionally user-friendly. Cons We are thoroughly satisfied with their service and have not encountered any drawbacks thus far. Review Source Mark F. ceo Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "proofy helps build reliable email lists" May 21, 2024 4.0 Pros I recently used Proofy.io for email verification, and I must say I am impressed with the results. The platform efficiently cleaned my email list, identifying and removing invalid or risky email addresses. The verification process was quick, and the user interface was intuitive, making it easy to navigate through the features. I appreciated the accuracy of their service, which contributed to improving my email deliverability. The customer support was responsive and helpful whenever I had questions. Overall, Proofy.io proved to be a reliable tool for maintaining a healthy and engaged email list. Cons Proofy.io has some limitations in terms of features or compared to some other email verification services. Review Source Abish S.

CEO Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Great choice" March 27, 2024 5.0 Pros I recently had the pleasure of using Proofly Email Checker for my business, and I must say, it is an absolute game-changer! From the moment I started using this tool, I noticed a significant improvement in my email campaign performance. The interface is incredibly user-friendly, making it easy for me to quickly verify email lists and maintain high deliverability rates. Cons Not many at all! Most of the time speed was great but only a few time, the uploading speed was lagging a tiny bit. Review Source Similar Products Featured
