## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## 🔥Email Verifier by Million Verifier

✅ #1 Email Verification Service\
✅ Only pay for valid and invalid emails\
✅ No charge for catch all emails

This Apify actor verifies email addresses in bulk using the Million Verifier service. Every email is checked in seconds, you’re only billed for decisive results (valid, disposable, invalid), and responses land in the default dataset ready for download or automation.

### 💸 Pricing & Charging

- You’re billed $1 per 1,000 decisive verifications (result: `ok`, `disposable`, `invalid`).
- Catch-all, unknown, and other non-decisive outcomes are free.
- Charging happens automatically after each processing batch; the actor logs a summary at the end of the run.

### ✨ Features

- 🧹 Automatic deduplication across runs.
- 📊 Resumable stats and per-batch charging ensure accurate billing.
- 📈 Built-in dataset view for a clean, browsable summary in the Apify console.

### 📝 Input

- **emails** (required, array of strings): Email addresses you want to verify.

> Tip: You can paste a list directly into the “Emails” field in the Apify input UI—each line should contain a single address.

### ▶️ How to Run

1. Open the actor on Apify and click **Run**.
2. Paste or upload the list of emails into the `emails` field (or use the prefill to test).
3. Press **Start**. You’ll see live logs and progress in the console.
4. When the run finishes, visit the **Dataset** tab to download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

### 📦 Output

The actor writes each verification result to the default dataset. Results are sanitized to remove metadata fields that are not relevant for end users.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "emails": [
    "test@test.com",
    "test@gmail.com"
  ]
}' |
apify call account56/email-verifier --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,account56/email-verifier"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
