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.
How do AI candidate sourcing use Forager work emails?
⌄
Let recruiters contact a shortlisted candidate immediately with a personal email or mobile shown on the card. Verified work email addresses for a person at their current employer. This page walks through 3 workflows with the exact steps.
What do work emails cost for AI candidate sourcing?
⌄
Work emails: 5 credits per work email found, and a work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits. That is $0.07 per work email on Starter month to month and $0.05 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices
Why do AI candidate sourcing add work emails?
⌄
Show personal email and mobile on every candidate card. Products like yours are judged on candidate replies, which is why the cost that counts is per result that reaches the right person. Run your own sample to see what work emails returns for your users before you build on it.
How AI recruiting tools find candidate emails?
⌄
Resolve the candidate with POST /person_detail_lookup/ (linkedin_public_identifier). Fetch personal_email (preferred for passive candidates), then mobile and work_email.
What inputs does it take and what does it return?
⌄
You send ATS export (name, email, LinkedIn URL), candidate LinkedIn identifier and company filters. You get back work_email, phone_number, personal_email and company with open roles, from POST /person_contacts_lookup/work_emails/, as JSON.
Can our users see Forager data in our product?
⌄
Yes, under platform terms. Self-serve plans cover internal use by your own team. Showing Forager contacts 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 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 AI candidate sourcing 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 the hiring manager for a job posting?
⌄
Pull matching postings for the member's target titles and locations with POST /job_search/. Find the likely hiring manager and team lead at the employer with POST /person_role_search/ (department, seniority, organization_domains).
How do you check data quality?
⌄
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.
