# ValidatedMails

> Email verification through an HTTP API, bulk CSV uploads, and a local stdio MCP adapter.

## Integration essentials

- API origin: https://api.validatedmails.com
- Authentication: Authorization: Bearer <API_KEY>. Create keys at https://validatedmails.com/app/api-keys.
- GET /api-keys/me checks credentials without spending credits.
- POST /validate accepts {"email":"name@example.com"}.
- POST /validate/batch accepts {"emails":["name@example.com"]}, up to 100 per request by default.
- Branch on status: valid, risky, invalid, unknown. Unknown is inconclusive, not invalid.
- One credit per conclusive validation; unknown results are free.
- POST /discover accepts {"url":"https://example.com","crawl_depth":1}. It normally costs 2 credits when signals are found.
- Inspect per-item batch errors. Do not automatically retry paid calls after ambiguous failures.
- MCP is a downloadable local stdio adapter, not a hosted endpoint.
