Hunter Email Finder

Hunter · hunter.io Freemium Beginner

When you have a name and a company but no address, Hunter is the default first stop: type the person and the domain, and it returns the verified email or its best guess with a confidence score. The free tier gives you 50 searches a month with no card, which is plenty when you are reaching out one founder at a time rather than blasting a list. It works off publicly available data and shows its sources, so you are not scraping anyone manually.

  • Search by first name, last name, and company domain to get a verified professional email or a confidence-scored guess.
  • Free plan covers 50 searches a month with no credit card, enough for targeted one-to-one outreach.
  • Results carry a verification status, so you know whether an address is deliverable before you send.
