Email Scoring
Learn more about catch-alls with Email Scoring
Most email verifiers like Bounceless.io identify catch-all or accept-all emails and mark them as risky. Understandably, most will remove these from their email list to play it safe.
However, every email address you obtain has a marketing cost, and discarding an otherwise valid email isn't always the right call.
ZeroBounce helps you learn more about your catch-alls with Email Scoringⓘ. Our AI detects the latest activity level of a catch-all address to help you determine the actual risk level. Emails with a score of 10 show high levels of engagement and can be worth pursuing if you have a low email bounce rateⓘ. These are potential conversions waiting to happen.
Conversely, emails with a low score are risky and not worth emailing. Either way, ZeroBounce gives you the insights you need to make educated decisions for your business.
