What does it do?

This Actor automates B2B prospecting in France. From a simple domain name (company.fr), it identifies the company, its decision makers and likely email addresses, then tests each address against the company's mail server without sending any message.

Typical use cases:

• Find the email of a French company's CEO or manager from its website
• Build B2B lead lists (SMEs, tradespeople, agencies, firms, manufacturers)
• Enrich a CRM, Airtable or Google Sheets with name, role, SIREN, NAF code, headcount and city
• Feed cold email sequences with real decision makers
• Qualify leads before a sales call

How it works

1. Reliable company matching: the Actor reads the site's legal notice, extracts the SIREN (Luhn-validated) and queries the official French company registry (recherche-entreprises.api.gouv.fr). The company name must match the domain, so homonyms are filtered out.
2. Decision maker extraction: President, Manager, Managing Director, Founder, based on the roles you choose.
3. Email pattern generation: first.last@, f.last@, flast@, first@, last@.
4. SMTP verification: each address is checked against the company's mail server. No email is ever sent.
5. Clean, exportable output with an explicit status for every email.

}

Email statuses (transparent, no false positives)

email_statut	Meaning
publie_sur_site	Email found publicly on the company website
verifie_smtp	Address confirmed by the company's mail server
aucun_pattern_valide	The server rejects every tested format
catch_all_non_verifiable	The domain accepts all addresses, so confirmation is impossible
non_verifiable	Mail server blocks verification (e.g. Google Workspace, Microsoft 365)
domaine_sans_mx	The domain does not receive email

Limits

• French companies only (registered in France, with a SIREN).
• Domains hosted on Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 or configured as catch-all cannot be verified address by address. They return non_verifiable or catch_all_non_verifiable.
• The Actor never returns a "valid" email without confirming it.
• Decision maker data comes from official public sources. Comply with GDPR and B2B prospecting rules (legitimate interest, right to object) in your campaigns.

Pricing

Pay per event: you only pay for each decision maker found (decideur-trouve). Domains with no result are not charged.

Why this Actor?

• Built for France: official company registry and SIREN, no approximate data scraped from social profiles.
• No API key and no email verification credits to buy.
• Honest email statuses: you know exactly what is verified and what is not.
• Works with Make, n8n, Zapier, Airtable and Google Sheets through the Apify API and webhooks.

FAQ

Can I search by company name or SIREN? For now, input is by domain name, the most reliable way to avoid homonyms.

Are the emails guaranteed? A verifie_smtp email was accepted by the company's mail server. No verification method offers a 100% guarantee.

Is any message sent to the decision makers? No. The check stops before sending: no email is ever sent.

🇫🇷 En français

Trouve le dirigeant et l'email vérifié de n'importe quelle entreprise française à partir de son site web.

Colle une liste de domaines : l'Actor identifie la société via le SIREN et la base officielle, récupère le dirigeant (PDG, gérant, DG, fondateur), génère les emails probables et les teste en SMTP, sans envoyer aucun message. Aucune clé API, tarification à l'usage : tu ne paies que pour chaque décideur trouvé.

Idéal pour la prospection B2B en France, le cold email et l'enrichissement de CRM. Les domaines sur Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 ou en catch-all ne sont pas vérifiables adresse par adresse : l'Actor l'indique clairement dans email_statut.
