The problem it solves

Bad or fake email addresses sneak into your contact list and quietly hurt your sender reputation and campaign results. Checking each new sign-up by hand isn't realistic once you're getting contacts regularly.

Who it fits

A marketing team running email campaigns through Mautic.

How it works

  1. A new contact identified in Mautic triggers the check
  2. The contact's email address is validated for deliverability and domain validity
  3. Suspicious or disposable emails are flagged
  4. A Slack alert is sent for review when needed
What you get

Bad email addresses caught before they cost you

You get a Slack alert whenever a new contact's email address looks risky or fake.

What you get

A Slack alert flagging any new contact with a risky or invalid email address.

What you need

A Mautic account, an email validation service, and a Slack workspace.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
