- ▸You don't have an EU-residency requirement and don't need to pay for one.
Frequently asked
Is Publish Now as accurate as Verifalia?
On the MX and DoH layer we match what Verifalia returns. Their SMTP probing adds a few percentage points of extra coverage on borderline mailboxes. For a first pass on a typical list, our results are close enough that running us first saves money downstream.
Why is Publish Now free when Verifalia charges per email?
Verifalia sells SMTP probing, EU data residency, a compliance posture, and a subscription dashboard. We sell zero of that. Our tool runs the cheap checks and stops there, which is exactly the part that doesn't need to cost anything.
Does Publish Now have a daily limit like Verifalia's 25 per day?
No. Drop a CSV with thousands of rows and we'll process the whole file in one pass. There's no per-day cap, no credit balance, no upgrade prompt.
Is Publish Now GDPR compliant?
We don't store the addresses you upload past the processing job. If you have a formal GDPR contract requirement or need EU data residency in writing, Verifalia is set up for that and we aren't trying to be.
Can I verify a single address without uploading a CSV?
The free tool is CSV-shaped today. For one-off checks Verifalia's web form or a similar single-address tool is faster. For lists of any meaningful size, drop the CSV with us.
