NeverBounce for AI agents

NeverBounce is an email verification service that checks address validity in bulk or in real time to reduce bounce rates. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

Check a single email address

Verify one email address's deliverability before it goes into an outreach sequence.

02

Retrieve results from a completed bulk verification job to see which addresses are safe, a read-only lookup.

03

Approve before deleting a job

02 · ACTIONS

12 NeverBounce actions, graded by risk.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How NeverBounce connects.

Users add their NeverBounce api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same NeverBounce connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

NeverBounce and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use NeverBounce with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect NeverBounce to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the NeverBounce actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect NeverBounce?

Users add their NeverBounce api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which NeverBounce actions can my agent take?

12 in total: 2 read, 9 write and 1 destructive, such as “start NeverBounce Job”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in NeverBounce?

Yes. Actions like “delete NeverBounce Job” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call NeverBounce too?

Yes. The same NeverBounce connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
