LinkedIn Profile Email Finder

Give it a list of LinkedIn profiles and it returns each person's work email address. No company list, no domain, no email format to supply — the current employer is read off the profile, the company's address format is derived from addresses that company already publishes, and the person's name is rendered under it.

Why the addresses come with evidence

Most tools assume first.last because it is the most common layout. It is wrong often enough to matter: some companies use first names alone, some join every surname token, some keep particles like de and van, and some truncate a hyphenated family name while collapsing a hyphenated given one. Two people at the same company can render very differently, which is why confidence is reported per person.

Every row carries the real published addresses its format came from, so the format can be checked rather than believed.

Cost of a long list

A company's format is worked out once. The first person at an employer pays for that; everyone else on the same payroll is rendered under the format already in hand. A list of 200 people across 20 companies does 20 derivations, not 200.

What it cannot do

Only the employer LinkedIn shows publicly is used. A signed-out view of a profile names the current employer in the clear and masks every earlier one, and an address built from a job somebody left will bounce — so a masked employer is refused rather than guessed at, and a profile with nothing readable is skipped and not charged for.

Around 40% of company domains accept every address (catch-all). No mailbox can be confirmed on those by anyone, so they are reported as unverifiable rather than guessed at, and verification is never charged for them.

Free sources of published addresses are uneven. They are rich for companies that publish code and for firms with public staff directories, and can be absent entirely. A profile whose employer yields no format is not returned and not charged for.

Pricing

Charged per profile that comes back with an address. Verified addresses cost extra, and only when a mailbox is actually confirmed.
