- Continuous SPF/DKIM/DMARC monitoring is bundled; not part of Clearout's core product.
- Native MCP server for AI agents.
- A verification-only evidence trail, rather than a verdict folded into a broader multi-tool credit system.
✓ Where Clearout wins
- Clearout is a combined platform: email finding, prospecting, and enrichment share the same credit pool as verification.
- Lower published price at 100K and 1M than RocketVerifier.
- Auto Credit Replenishment (ACR) for automatic top-ups when balance runs low.
Best for: Teams that want prospecting, email finding, and verification on one shared credit pool, and are comfortable with features besides verification drawing down that same balance.
Migrating from Clearout
You don't need to re-architect anything. Verification APIs across this category share the same shape: send an email, get back a status and a score.
Sign up & get an API key
Dashboard → API Keys. A sandbox key (rv_test_...) lets you wire up the integration before spending credits.
Map the response fields
Our status field (deliverable / undeliverable / risky / unknown) covers the same ground as Clearout's result field — map your downstream branching logic 1:1.
Run a parallel batch first
Re-verify a sample you've already checked with Clearout and diff the results before cutting over fully — don't trust either vendor's score blindly.
Swap the endpoint
Point your integration (Zapier, n8n, HubSpot, a direct API call) at RocketVerifier and decommission the old key once you're confident.
