Part 01 · Overview

Welcome

What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first

1.6

GPA, above 2 of the 61 other email verification and deliverability tools we grade

Validity Engage, the product the directory lists as Validity Everest, is an enterprise email platform for brands that send at scale. Its deliverability module covers inbox placement testing, Sender Score monitoring, blocklist and authentication checks, and pre-send checks. It is sold through sales, with no public price list.

To get you started, here are 7 things to know about Validity Engage, taken from its own pages and our grades.

No price is published, the vendor's pages now call it Validity Engage, and a demo is the only way in.

Free plan and trialFNo self-serve sign-up, free plan or trial on the pages we read.
FeaturesCInbox placement tests, reputation, authentication and blocklist monitoring and pre-send checks. It's enterprise-aimed, and the listing's name no longer matches the vendor's.

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

To replace Validity Engage you would be making newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 58 of the 61 other email verification and deliverability tools grade higher.

What you could not

  • Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox.
  • Reading the reports inbox providers send about your domain.

What this rests on. Validity Engage’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
