NeverBounce alternative for work-email detection

isBusinessEmail vs NeverBounce: list cleaning and deliverability vs free work-email classification with Workspace and Microsoft 365 detection.

NeverBounce is an email verification and list-cleaning service: upload a list or call the API to find addresses likely to bounce before you send.

isBusinessEmail is not a list cleaner. It classifies the domain behind an address so B2B products can tell company signups from personal ones, and see whether the company runs Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.

What you get from isBusinessEmail

  • category: business, personal, disposable, relay, education, government, invalid, unknown
  • recommendation: allow, review or block, under b2b, strict or lenient policies
  • workspace: Google Workspace / Microsoft 365 detection, tenant ID, region, federation and identity provider
  • reasons: explainable signals for every verdict

  • Free, with fair-use limits

A common combined setup

  1. Signup: isBusinessEmail decides allow / review / block and stores the suite on the account.
  2. Onboarding: the stored suite pre-selects the Google or Microsoft connector.
  3. Before campaigns to old lists: a verifier removes undeliverable addresses.
