UNLIMITED VERIFICATIONS

Verify Unlimited Emails.
One Flat Price.

Run the EVA engine on your own servers. Zero per-email costs, all updates and support included. $4,995/yr, about half the price of the only comparable self-hosted verifier.

Why Self-Host?

Four reasons teams choose to run the engine instead of paying per email.

Zero Per-Email Costs

Stop paying per verification. One flat annual license, and every email you verify is free. Verify 10 emails or 10 million. Same cost.

Data Sovereignty

Emails never leave your servers. Full GDPR compliance by default. Your data, your infrastructure, your rules.

Source Available on OEM

Deployment licenses ship production images. OEM licensees receive the complete Go source under a signed agreement: read it, audit it, extend it.

Deploy Anywhere

Docker Compose on any Linux server. AWS, GCP, Azure, on-premise: your choice. 15 minutes from download to first verification.

What's Included

Everything you need to run a production-grade email verification engine.

The full 28-check verification engine

Syntax, DNS, SMTP, provider-specific APIs, disposable, role-based, catch-all scoring, deliverability, spam trap, reputation, Gravatar. Source code included on the OEM license.

Provider-specific strategies (Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, Apple, and more)

Dedicated SMTP engines and API integrations for every major mail provider.

Bulk processing up to 50,000 emails

CSV/XLSX upload, background workers, webhook notifications on completion.

PostgreSQL + Redis stack

Full schema with migrations, Redis caching layer for performance.

Docker Compose deployment

Production-ready Compose files with health checks and resource limits.

Prometheus metrics + monitoring

Pre-built Grafana dashboards and metric endpoints ready out of the box.

GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline

Lint, test, security scan, and deploy workflows included.

All updates and priority support included

Mail providers change behavior constantly. When Yahoo moved its validation endpoint in June 2026, licensees had the fix within days. Your annual license covers every update and new provider strategy we ship.

When Does Self-Hosted Pay for Itself?

Cloud verifiers charge $2.00 to $2.75 per 1,000 emails at volume. The $4,995/yr deployment license works out to $416/mo, and the per-email cost is zero.

Cloud column uses published volume rates from leading per-check verification services ($2.00 to $2.75 per 1,000 emails). Self-hosted cost is the $4,995/yr deployment license ÷ 12 months, updates and support included, $0 per email at any volume. For comparison, the only other commercial self-hosted verifier charges €699/mo (€8,388/yr) for the software alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you buy.

What programming language is EVA built in?

Go 1.24. The entire codebase compiles to a single binary with zero runtime dependencies. Fast, lightweight, and straightforward to audit and extend.

What infrastructure do I need?

Any Linux server with Docker. Minimum: 1 CPU, 1 GB RAM. Recommended: 2 CPU, 4 GB RAM for production workloads. Works on AWS, GCP, Azure, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, or bare metal.

How do updates work?

Deployment licensees pull updated Docker images for as long as the license is active; every provider fix and new verification strategy is included in the $4,995/yr price. OEM licensees pull from the private source repository, with the first year of updates included and maintenance at $5,995/yr after that. Mail providers change their behavior constantly, so updates are what keep accuracy high.

What happens if I don’t renew?

The Deployment License is annual: production use requires an active license, and updates and support stop when it lapses. Renewal is the same flat $4,995/yr, never more per volume. The perpetual OEM Source License is different: the source and the right to use it are yours permanently, and only the update stream depends on maintenance.

Do I need proxies to verify emails from my own servers?

For SMTP-grade accuracy, yes. Most clouds block outbound port 25, and a fresh IP has no sender reputation, so mail servers distrust it. The engine ships with proxy rotation built in: point it at a specialist SMTP proxy provider (typically around $49/mo per IP) and we walk you through the setup as part of onboarding. Syntax, DNS, disposable, and provider API checks work without any proxy.

Do I get the source code?

The Deployment License ships production Docker images, which is everything you need to run unlimited verifications. The OEM Source License adds the complete Go source with the right to modify, extend, and embed it in your own product. Neither license permits reselling the source, redistributing it, or offering email verification as a standalone service to third parties. Source is delivered under a signed agreement.

Why does the OEM license cost so much more than the Deployment license?

Because they grant different rights, not different software. The Deployment License lets you use the engine. The OEM License transfers our core asset, the source of a provider-specific verification engine that took years of research to build, plus the right to ship it inside your commercial product. You are buying rights, not bits.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. The OEM license is available as a term license at $1,495/mo with a 12-month minimum, and larger licenses can be paid in milestones (for example on signing, on delivery, and after acceptance). Email us and we will structure something workable.

What’s the difference between cloud and self-hosted?

Same verification engine, same capabilities. Self-hosted runs on your infrastructure with zero per-email costs, ideal for high-volume or compliance-sensitive use cases. Cloud is fully managed by us with usage-based pricing and no infrastructure work required.
