Email Verifier

The Email Verification API checks whether an address can receive mail. It costs 0.25 credit per verification, whatever the result: the credit is never refunded.

  -H "Authorization: $EMELIA_API_KEY"

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "_id": "6650f1a2b839d80011c5f003",
    "email": "claire.fontaine@nexora.io",
    "status": "done",
    "qualification": "valid",
    "date": "2026-10-11T08:00:00.000Z"
  }
}

qualification is the deliverability verdict of the provider, for example valid. A verification usually ends within seconds; after about 60 seconds without a verdict the job ends with status: "error", and the 0.25 credit is not refunded.

When to verifyCopy Anchor Link

• Verify the addresses you bring yourself: an old CRM export, a file from a partner, a form.
• Do not verify what the Email Finder returned as valid: it was already checked.
• Catch-all domains accept every address, real or not: no verifier can prove that a specific mailbox exists behind them. Send to those addresses in small batches and watch the bounces.
