FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about verification, credits, integrations and your data.

General

What is email verification?

Email verification checks syntax, domain mail records, risk signals, and SMTP mailbox response where providers allow it. Some providers limit mailbox-level proof, so results may be valid, risky, or unknown with provider caveats.

How accurate is Kawaa?

Kawaa combines syntax validation, DNS/MX checks, risk signals, and AI-powered analysis. We publish percentage accuracy claims only after benchmark validation.

How fast is the verification?

Verification speed depends on cache state, DNS response time, and optional analysis. Batch requests support up to 10,000 emails per request, depending on your plan.

Pricing & billing

Is there a free plan?

Yes! Our free plan includes 100 one-time starter verifications, perfect for testing our service. No credit card required to sign up.

What happens if I exceed my plan limit?

You can purchase additional credits anytime, or upgrade to a higher plan. We never charge overage fees automatically - you remain in control of your spending.

Do unused credits roll over?

Yes. On a paid plan, your plan’s credits are added to your balance on each billing date, and credits you have not used stay in your balance. Credit packs you buy are added to the same balance. Free-plan credits are a one-time grant and do not reset.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. You'll retain access until the end of your current billing period.

Technical

What verification checks do you perform?

We perform comprehensive checks including: syntax validation, DNS record verification, MX record lookup, disposable email detection, role account detection, spam trap detection, and AI-powered catch-all analysis.

Do you support bulk verification?

Yes! Depending on your plan, you can verify up to 10,000 emails per batch (100 on Free up to 10,000 on Enterprise) via our API or dashboard. Upload CSV/TXT files or send emails via our REST API.

What SDKs do you offer?

Install the Node.js SDK from npm or the Python SDK from PyPI; both are called kawaa. SDKs for PHP, Go, Ruby, Java, C# and Rust are available as source code.

Do you offer webhooks?

Yes, you can configure webhooks to receive notifications when batch jobs complete. We support HMAC signature verification for security.

Integrations

What CRM integrations do you support?

There are no native CRM apps yet. Today you can connect HubSpot, Salesforce or Mailchimp to Kawaa through our REST API, or export a list as CSV and upload it in Bulk verify. Native HubSpot and Salesforce apps are in development, and Zapier and Make integrations are coming soon.

Do you integrate with Zapier?

Our Zapier integration is coming soon. In the meantime, you can connect Kawaa to your Zapier workflows today using Webhooks by Zapier with our REST API.

Is there a Google Sheets add-on?

Not yet. A Google Sheets add-on is on our roadmap. Today you can export your sheet to CSV and upload it in Bulk verify, or connect through the API and SDKs.

Security & compliance

Is my data secure?

Yes. We use TLS 1.2+ encryption for all data in transit and AES-256 encryption at rest. Internal verification lookups are keyed by a one-way hash rather than the raw address, and you can export or delete your account and verification data at any time.

How do you support GDPR?

We're built to support GDPR obligations: we offer a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) for customers who require it, and you can request data export or deletion at any time.

Do you sell or share email data?

Never. We do not sell, share, or use your email data for any purpose other than providing our verification service.
