The problem

What Happens When You
Don't Validate

01Fake signup enters

Disposable or mistyped email passes your form

02First email bounces

Welcome email hits a dead inbox and bounces hard

03Sender score drops

Your ESP flags high bounce rates on your domain

04Domain blacklisted

Gmail and Outlook start routing you straight to spam

05Real customers gone

Paying users never see your emails — revenue disappears silently

Companies lose an average of $12.9 per invalid email in wasted marketing spend.

Based on the Gartner Data Quality “1-10-100” rule — bad data costs 10x more to clean and 100x more if left unresolved.

The solution

One API Call.
Eight Layers. Every Plan.

Drop-in email validation that blocks fakes, catches typos, and scores every address — plus built-in bulk validation, email finder, and exportable reports. No premium tiers. No locked features. You get everything from day one.

Integration

Works With Any Stack

One REST API. No SDKs to install, no plugins to configure. If your language can make an HTTP request, you're ready.

Request
curl -X POST https://api.mailsentry.dev/v1/verify \
  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"email": "jane@example.com"}'
Response200 OK
{
  "email": "jane@example.com",
  "score": 92,
  "verdict": "valid",
  "checks": {
    "syntax": true,
    "mx_records": true,
    "smtp_valid": true,
    "disposable": false,
    "role_based": false,
    "free_provider": false,
    "did_you_mean": null
  }
}

If it can make an HTTP request, it works with MailSentry.
