An email-finding and verification tool - given a name, domain, or company, it locates likely professional email addresses (via domain pattern-matching and web-crawled data) and verifies deliverability; also offers bulk domain search and a separate higher-volume "Data Platform" API for larger-scale lookups.

## Research notes
The Free tier ($0/mo, 25 searches + 50 verifications/month) includes API access per Hunter's own feature-comparison table, making it one of the few tools here with genuinely self-serve, no-cost API access (rate/volume-limited). Paid tiers: Starter (~$34-49/mo), Growth (~$104-149/mo), Scale (~$209-299/mo depending on annual/monthly billing), Enterprise custom. A separate higher-volume "Data Platform" API product uses credit packages starting around $6,500. 2026-09-03: vendor docs state the Email Finder endpoint "finds the most likely email address from a domain name, a first name and a last name" and its response includes linkedin_url (https://hunter.io/api-documentation/v2); no MCP tool name is stated on that page; the docs state no credit is charged if no email is found, and the pricing page states the Free plan includes 50 credits per month (https://hunter.io/pricing).
