DropMail vs Verifier

If you need a Email API that's easy to integrate, go with DropMail.

DropMail

GraphQL API for creating and managing ephemeral e-mail inboxes

Verifier

Verifies that a given email is real

DropMail

  • No authentication required
  • HTTPS supported

Verifier

  • Simple API key authentication
  • HTTPS supported
  • CORS enabled for frontend use
  • Currently flagged as inactive
FeatureDropMailVerifier
AuthenticationNoneapiKey
HTTPSYesYes
CORSUnknownYes

When to use which?

DropMail is the better choice for quick prototypes and hackathons since it requires no authentication. Verifier works directly from the browser with CORS enabled, making it better for frontend-only apps.
