EmailDetective – A Email Validation API

Hello, I'm Andrew, owner of EmailDetective. I was looking for an API solution for email validation/scoring for multiple mailing lists. I noticed a lot of the email validation services out there: - Do not have an API - Are behind a paywall to try the API - Are priced way to high - Have inconsistent or non-intuitive APIs So I decided to create my own solution. This is my first time announcing EmailDetective, so I am looking for any general feedback, issues you might have run into and if you find this service useful. And yes you can try it out for free without signing up :)

EmailDetective – A Email Validation API launched on October 17, 2024 with 6 votes, #1,611 of 5,185 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 2 years on.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
