FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do AI agent builders use Forager reverse email lookup?

Let GTM engineers and developers build production enrichment workflows by prompting a coding agent against typed endpoints, or add a people endpoint to their own web-data API. Turn an email address into a full person profile: name, title, company, location and social links. This page walks through 3 workflows with the exact steps.

What does reverse email lookup cost for AI agent builders?

Reverse email lookup: 5 credits per request, charged whether or not data comes back. 1,000 reverse email lookups use 5,000 credits: about $67 of Starter credits month to month, or about $50 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices

Why do AI agent builders add reverse email lookup?

Typed people and contact lookups your agents can call, paid per result. Products like yours are judged on whether the agent reached the right person, which is why the cost that counts is per result that reaches the right person. Run your own sample to see what reverse email lookup returns for your users before you build on it.

Which people and company data APIs work well with coding agents?

The workflow uses Forager People search, Person enrichment, Company enrichment, Job postings API, Work emails, Personal emails and Reverse email lookup. People search: Find the people who hold a role at target companies, filtered by title, seniority, department and location. Let GTM engineers and developers build production enrichment workflows by prompting a coding agent against typed endpoints, or add a people endpoint to their own web-data API.

What do I send, and what comes back?

You send email address, API key and calendar attendee. You get back person_id, agent context, company and company summary, from POST /person_detail_reverse_lookup/by_email/, as JSON.

Can we show Forager data inside our product?

Yes, under platform terms. Self-serve plans cover internal use by your own team. Showing Forager data to your users, or passing records on, is licensed separately: talk to sales about volume and which fields your users need to see.

Am I charged when nothing is found?

Yes. Reverse email lookup is charged per request, whether or not data comes back. Only mobile and email lookups are free when nothing is found, so try your inputs on a small run before you scale.

Is there a free way to try Forager?

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 enrich inbound lead inside AI assistant?

Call POST /person_detail_reverse_lookup/by_email/ with the sign-up email. Call POST /organization_search/ with the email domain for company size and industry.

How do I know the data is right?

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.

What is the difference between a reverse email lookup and an email finder?

An email finder starts from a person and returns their email. A reverse email lookup starts from an email address, such as a sign-up or an inbound lead, and returns the person behind it: name, title, company, location and social links.

Does Forager integrate with the tools we already use?

Native in Clay, partner-built in Deepline and called through the API from Make, n8n and your own code. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.
