What's billable
| Result | Credits |
|---|---|
| Valid | 1 |
| Invalid | 1 |
| Catch-all | 1 |
| Unknown | Free |
| Duplicate within the same list | Free |
Clearout's other tools use more credits: its Form Guard widget takes 2 credits per billable email and its finder takes 4 credits per non-role email found. Those draw on the same balance, so budget for them if you use both.
Paid add-ons include extra parallel bulk runs ($49 a month each), higher API rate limits ($99 a month per extra 100 requests a minute) and extra team seats ($25 each).

SimpleVerifier Pro is $39 a month, month to month: the first 100,000 checks a month at full speed, then slower, never cut off. Starter is $9 a month for 2,500. See pricing.
Who Clearout fits
- Teams who want a finder and verifier in one account.
- Buyers who commit to a year and want rollover on unused credits.
- Teams that need more parallel runs or API throughput and will pay for the add-ons.
Catch-all rows cost you either way
Clearout bills catch-all at 1 credit. On B2B lists that can be a big share of spend for rows nobody can confirm. SimpleVerifier returns catch-alls as risky, never valid, with a higher, medium or lower likelihood grade so you decide how many to send. See catch-all email verification.
