Tips

• Use company domains, not personal email providers (gmail.com, yahoo.com).
• High confidence results are found directly in public sources; medium confidence results are pattern-based.
• Combine with email verification services for best deliverability.
• Start with popular, well-known companies for better email coverage.
• Email availability depends on the company's online presence and public mentions.
