Frequently asked questions

Ceven manages the full lifecycle of bulk jobs. The agent first uploads your file to Clearout and then enters a polling state using the progress status tool. Instead of making you wait, the agent monitors the percentage complete in the background. Once Clearout marks the job as finished, the agent automatically generates the download URL and pulls the results back into your workflow. This allows you to scrub thousands of emails without leaving your dashboard or manually checking for completion emails. You can also tell the agent to cancel a specific bulk job if you realize the source list was incorrect.
Yes. Ceven uses two distinct Clearout checks for this. First, it uses the free email verifier to see if the address belongs to a common public provider. Second, it uses the business account verifier to confirm if the domain is registered to a corporate entity. This two step process ensures that you do not accidentally send a corporate pitch to a personal Gmail account or treat a freelance consultant with a custom domain as a large enterprise lead. The agent can automatically tag these differences in your CRM for better segmentation.
When the agent attempts to find a person via a LinkedIn URL and Clearout returns no result, the agent can be programmed with a fallback logic. For example, it can try to autocomplete the company domain first and then search for likely email patterns for that specific person. If all attempts fail, the agent marks the lead as unfindable and moves to the next record. This prevents your workflow from stalling and ensures you have a clear record of which prospects require manual research by a human team member.
Absolutely. The agent uses the role account verifier to scan for common patterns like info@, support@, or sales@. Since these addresses often lead to shared mailboxes or filters, the agent can automatically exclude them from your high priority outreach lists. You can set a rule where any email flagged as a role account is routed to a lower priority nurturing sequence instead of a direct sales sequence. This keeps your sender reputation high by avoiding the generic mailboxes that often trigger spam filters.
Catch all domains are those that accept all mail sent to the domain regardless of whether the specific mailbox exists. Ceven uses the catch all verify tool to flag these. Because catch all emails are inherently riskier and can lead to bounces, the agent can apply a specific risk score to these leads. You can instruct the agent to only send to catch all addresses if the lead has a high match score from other sources, or to flag them for a manual double check before the first email is sent.
One specific quirk of the Clearout API is that bulk result URLs are temporary. If the agent does not download the results file shortly after the job completes, the link will expire and the job must be re processed. Ceven handles this by immediately triggering the download and moving the data into your permanent storage as soon as the status is complete. Additionally, certain enrichment features are gated by your specific Clearout subscription tier. If the agent encounters a permission error, it will notify you that your current plan does not support that specific lookup type.
Yes, by ensuring that every email sent is valid. The agent uses the gibberish and disposable email verifiers to prune your list of low quality data. By removing these before they hit your email service provider, you avoid the high bounce rates that signal to providers like Google or Microsoft that you are a spammer. The agent also checks MX records to ensure the destination server is actually configured to receive mail, adding a final layer of technical verification before any communication is attempted.
The agent uses this when you have a company name but no website. It sends the company name to Clearout, which returns a list of probable domains with confidence scores. The agent is configured to only proceed if the confidence score meets a certain threshold, such as eighty percent. If the score is lower, the agent can flag the record for human review or try a different search method. This prevents the agent from associating a lead with the wrong company domain, which would otherwise lead to failed email discovery.
