Real contacts, never invented
Your assistant stops inventing email addresses and people who don’t exist. If Hunter can’t verify a contact, it says so instead of guessing.
Ask your AI to find companies, verify email addresses, and build leads lists with Hunter’s MCP.

When AI confidently invents a lead’s email address, it undermines your entire research flow. Hunter’s MCP fixes that, giving your assistant accurate, real contact data as the foundation for your outreach.
Every contact is found and verified, never guessed.
Your assistant stops inventing email addresses and people who don’t exist. If Hunter can’t verify a contact, it says so instead of guessing.
Every email address is checked for deliverability and returned with a confidence score, so you don’t burn your domain on bounces.
Answers come from Hunter’s data from 100M+ companies and real email addresses, not the model’s best guess.
You’re using AI to research accounts, draft outreach, and prepare for calls. But the moment you need a verified email address or a list of contacts, you leave the chat, open Hunter, and start copy-pasting. Context gets lost. Momentum slows down.
Prospecting used to mean switching tools, exporting CSVs, and losing track of browser tabs. Tell your assistant who you want to reach, and Hunter finds real leads.

I have a call with {{company_name}} tomorrow. Use Hunter to find the company’s domain, then pull all available contacts there. Identify the most senior people in {{department}} and return their names, titles, and verified email addresses so I know who the key stakeholders are before I get on the call.
I need to reach the person responsible for {{function_or_decision}} at {{company_name}}. Use Hunter to search for contacts at this company, then identify the most relevant person based on their job title. Return their name, title, email address, and any other available profile details.
Use Hunter to find everyone working at {{company_name}} in {{department}} roles. Organize the results by seniority – leadership first, then mid-level, then individual contributors – and include their verified email addresses and confidence scores. I want a clear picture of the full team structure.
I’m uploading a CSV with columns for first name, last name, and company from an event. For each row, use Hunter to find and verify their professional email address. Return the enriched list with the original columns plus email address and confidence score added. Flag any rows where Hunter couldn’t find a match.
I just received a lead from {{name}} at {{company_name}}. Use Hunter to look up the company domain, verify their email address, and pull any other contacts at the company in {{department}} roles. Give me a quick snapshot: is the email address valid, what’s the company size, and who else should I be aware of at this account?
I’m building a prospect list for {{ideal_customer_profile}}. Use Hunter to find {{number}} matching companies, then for each one identify the top {{number}} contacts in {{department}}. For every contact, verify their email address and note the confidence score. Output everything as a structured list I can review and prioritize before starting outreach.
