Overview
Reverse Email Lookup transforms any email address into a complete person and company profile via the FullEnrich API.
It allows you to input an email address and retrieve the B2B profile behind it, including both personal and company-level information. This functionality is available through the API only.
Reverse Email Lookup works with both professional and personal email addresses (Gmail, Outlook, GitHub, and more).
