Data enrichment (name and gender)

Add first and last names and a predicted gender, read from the address itself, to your verification results on the plans that include it.

What is data enrichment?

Data enrichment adds valuable information to your email addresses by extracting and analyzing the name portion of the email to provide:

• First name
• Last name
• Full name
• Gender prediction

Which plans include it

Data enrichment is included on the Business plan and above. On a lower plan, a request that sends enrich: true is refused as a whole with 403 PLAN_UPGRADE_REQUIRED (whether it is a single verification, a batch or a file), so nothing is verified and no credits are charged. Leave the option out on those plans, or upgrade in Settings → Billing.

How to enable

On a Business-or-higher plan, add enrich: true to your verification request:

{
  "email": "john.smith@company.com",
  "options": {
    "enrich": true
  }
}

Response

Enrichment fields are only present when they could be derived, so treat every one of them as optional.

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "email": "john.smith@company.com",
    "status": "valid",
    "enrichment": {
      "first_name": "John",
      "last_name": "Smith",
      "full_name": "John Smith",
      "gender": "male"
    }
  }
}
