Email Validator API
ML-powered email validation that goes beyond blacklists
Most email validators fail against auto-generated disposable emails as they have real mailboxes so MX and SMTP return valid, and blacklists can't keep up with random domains. This API combines traditional checks with an XGBoost ML model that scores username and domain risk, catching what rule-based systems miss. Free tier available, Python SDK included.
I built this after getting frustrated with existing email validators missing auto-generated disposable emails. MX records and SMTP checks are useless against them since disposable providers have real mailboxes, so I trained an XGBoost model on username and domain patterns instead.
Would love to hear what edge cases you've run into with email validation, always looking to improve the model. Free tier available if you want to try it out!
