Reverse Email Lookup — Name, LinkedIn & Phone ✅ Misses Free

Reverse Email Lookup — Name, LinkedIn & Phone ✅ Misses Free

Reverse email lookup and enrichment in one call — find the person behind an email address. Give it one email and get back full name, company, job title, location and phone — plus, when available, the person's full LinkedIn profile (headline, work history, education and skills) — as one clean, enriched row. Runs on the Neuralverge engine, so there's no login, cookies, proxy or API key to configure. Use it from the UI, the Apify API, or any MCP client, and pay only when a person is found — misses are free.

✨ Why this Actor

• 💸 Misses are free — you're charged only when an email resolves to a person. No match, no charge, no empty billable rows.
• 📇 The person, not just an "OSINT hit" — most email tools only tell you which sites an address shows up on. This returns the actual person: fullName, company, title, phone, location and linkedin.
• 🔗 Full LinkedIn profile when found — up to 20+ structured fields when available: headline, current role, skills and school at the top level, plus the complete positions & education history under raw.
• ⚡ Real-time & structured — every email is resolved live at run time (no stale cache) and returned as clean JSON, ready for CSV/Excel, the Apify API, or an AI agent over MCP.
• 🔑 No login, cookies, proxy or API key — nothing to configure.

🔧 How it works

1. Provide an email address in the email field.
2. Run the Actor. The email is resolved live on the Neuralverge backend.
3. Get one dataset row per matched person, with key fields at the top level and the full response attached. Export to CSV, JSON, or Excel, or pull it over the Apify API.

If the email resolves to no person, it's logged and skipped without charge.

💡 Use it for

• Inbound lead routing — enrich sign-ups and demo requests the moment an email hits your form.
• CRM enrichment — fill in name, title, company, phone and LinkedIn on thin records.
• Sales prospecting — turn a list of addresses into people with real role and company context.
• Recruiting — put a name, background and profile to a candidate's email.
• Trust & anti-fraud checks — confirm an email maps to a real, consistent identity.

Input

One email per run.

Field	Type	Notes
email	string	The email address to enrich.

{
  "email": "steve@builder.io"
}

Accepts any email — business or personal. You're billed only for addresses that resolve to a person, so there's no downside to trying one you're unsure about.

What you'll receive

Up to 20+ structured fields per matched person, when available:

• Person — fullName, firstName, lastName, gender, dateOfBirth, photoUrl
• Contact — email, emails, phone, phones
• Location — city, state, country, location
• Work — title, headline, company
• LinkedIn — linkedin (profile URL), connectionCount, school, skills; the complete positions & education history under raw.machine.linkedin
• Social (when found) — xProfile, telegram
• Meta — query (input email), scrapedAt, human (markdown summary) and the full response under raw

Example output

Key fields are flattened to the top level for convenience; the complete, unmodified API response is attached under raw.

Pricing

$0.010 per matched email ($10 per 1,000) returned to the dataset. You pay only when a person is found — unresolved emails are free.

Event	Price
Actor start	Free
Matched person returned (per dataset row)	$0.010

Competitive for the niche: reverse-email tools on Apify range from ~$5 to $20 per 1,000, and data-provider wrappers reach $150. Emails that resolve to no person are not billed. Pricing is on top of your Apify platform usage.

Not sure an address will resolve? Try it on an email you already know. If we can't match it to a person, no row is written and you pay nothing.

Run it over the API & MCP

Results are stored in a standard Apify dataset — export as CSV, JSON, XML or Excel, or fetch on demand through the Apify API. Call the Actor synchronously and get the enriched person back in a single request:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/neuralverge~neuralverge-email-enrichment/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "email": "steve@builder.io" }'

The Actor also plugs into Apify's integrations (Make, Zapier, n8n, webhooks) and can be called from any MCP client to give an AI agent a live people-lookup tool.

Data & compliance

Data is compiled from publicly available sources and resolved at request time. You are responsible for ensuring a lawful basis for processing personal data under applicable privacy laws (e.g. GDPR / CCPA) and for using the results only for permitted purposes.

FAQ

What do I get back from an email? The person behind it: name, company, job title, phone and location — plus their LinkedIn profile (headline, skills, school) when found. The complete work history and education are attached under raw.

Is this email enrichment? Yes — it's reverse email enrichment: instead of just verifying an address, it enriches it into a full person record (name, company, title, phone, location and LinkedIn). You're charged only when an email actually enriches to a person.

Which emails work best? Any email works as an input, and you're charged only when one resolves to a person. Work addresses typically return the fullest profiles; anything that doesn't resolve costs nothing.

Do I need an API key, login or proxy? No. The lookup runs on the Neuralverge engine — you never provide credentials, cookies or a proxy.

Am I charged if an email isn't matched? No. You're billed only for rows returned to the dataset, i.e. when at least a name is found.

Is this compliant? The Actor returns data compiled from publicly available sources, resolved at request time. You're responsible for having a lawful basis for processing personal data (e.g. legitimate interest under GDPR, or CCPA compliance) and for using results only for permitted purposes such as B2B outreach, verification or recruiting.

How fast is it, and can I run it at volume? Each lookup resolves in real time, usually in a few seconds. Run one email per run and parallelise across runs; your standard Apify account concurrency and rate limits apply.

How is this different from the LinkedIn Email Scraper? This runs email → person. If you already have a LinkedIn URL and want the work email, use the LinkedIn Email Scraper instead — that's the opposite direction.

Is the data live? Yes — every email is resolved at run time, not served from a stale cache.
