# Local leads that won't burn your domain.

Your sending domain is worth more than any list. Leadraft checks every email against the live mail server before it counts, grades catch-all separately, and only exports Verified by default.

-   Sendable
    
    ## Verified means a mailbox answered
    
    We ask the business's mail server whether the mailbox exists. No email is sent. Invalid addresses are never exported.
    
-   Precise
    
    ## Accept-all is a maybe, never a yes
    
    Domains that accept every address are graded Accept-all, so you can send to them separately, slower, or not at all.
    
-   Complete
    
    ## Volume without the padding
    
    Tiling finds every business in the area, so there's enough volume to keep campaigns full without recycling the same leads.
    

Verification

## Every email graded before it reaches your sequence.

Emails come from each business's own website: pages, sitemap and the browser-rendered site. Then each one gets a grade, and only the ones you choose go out.

-   Verified, Accept-all and Invalid, as separate grades
-   Checked-email credits only for verified emails you take out
-   Instantly bounce feedback flows back to your list

How it works

## A clean list, straight into your sender

1.  01
    
    ### Search the market
    
    Trades × places, or an area you draw. Set a lead goal so a search stops when you have enough.
    
2.  02
    
    ### Let it verify
    
    Each email is checked against the mail server as the search runs. Watch the counts climb.
    
3.  03
    
    ### Filter to Verified
    
    Keep Verified only, or add Accept-all to a separate campaign. Your do-not-contact list is applied automatically.
    
4.  04
    
    ### Push to your sender
    
    Send leads to an Instantly, Smartlead or lemlist campaign, or deliver to a webhook on a schedule.

Questions

## Cold email & outbound, answered

Do you send email to check an address?

No. Verification is a conversation with the business's mail server that stops before any message is sent. The business never receives anything.

What's your bounce rate?

We don't publish one yet: it depends on your list and your sending setup, and we only publish numbers we've measured. Verified addresses had a mailbox confirmed at the time of the check.

What happens to catch-all emails?

They're graded Accept-all. They aren't counted as Verified and aren't exported unless you include them.

If two campaigns target the same city, do I pay twice?

No. A business is charged once per organization, ever. Every later search that finds it again is free.

## Start with 500 businesses, free.
