How to test it
Test work emails on your own sample
Pull a sample. Take profiles your users looked up last week.
Run it. Use a self-serve key, or book a demo and send us the list.
Measure what your users feel. Connect rate for mobiles, bounces for emails, and whether the right person answers.

⌄

Which staffing and recruiting workflows use work emails?
⌄
Win new staffing clients by reaching hiring leaders behind open roles and prospect plant and warehouse managers for an on-demand staffing marketplace. Each is on this page with its trigger, steps and outcome.
How do I find companies hiring engineers and their cto?
⌄
Find companies posting target roles with POST /job_search/ (title, location, posted date). Find the CTO, VP Engineering or talent lead with POST /person_role_search/.
What inputs does it take and what does it return?
⌄
You send company filters, hourly role keywords and metro areas. You get back work_email, company with open roles, facility with open shifts and hiring leader, from POST /person_contacts_lookup/work_emails/, as JSON.
Am I charged when no work email is found?
⌄
No. A work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits, so you pay for work emails we find. Search, enrichment and reverse lookups are the exception: they are charged per request.
Can staffing and recruiting firms test work emails for free?
⌄
Yes. Create a free account at app.forager.ai: it comes with $5 in free credits and an API key, and there is no credit card to sign up. Run it on records you already know, or book a demo and send us a list: we run it and show you what we find.
How do I find plant managers hiring hourly workers?
⌄
Detect high-volume hourly hiring by site with POST /job_search/ (title, location, posted date). Find plant, warehouse and operations managers at each site with POST /person_role_search/ (role_title, location, organization_domains).
How accurate is Forager data?
⌄
The test that counts is your own: send a list of profiles you care about. We run it and show you what we find, number by number, so you can measure hit rate and connect rate yourself.
How is a work email finder different from guessing the email pattern?
⌄
A pattern guess (first.last@company.com) gives you an address that may not exist or may belong to someone who left. A work email lookup returns the address for that person at their current employer, and with Forager a work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits.
Where can I use Forager work emails?
⌄
Native in Clay and Zapier, partner-built in Deepline and Cargo and called through the API from Make, n8n and your own code. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.
Do I need a subscription?
⌄
Not to test: a free account comes with $5 in credits. To keep using work emails, choose a monthly or yearly plan. Monthly plans cancel anytime and unused credits roll over; yearly plans grant all credits upfront and cost 10% less. Larger volumes are agreed with our team.
Written answers are not available right now. The matching pages above still help, or book a demo and ask the team.
