Frequently asked questions
What is a reverse email lookup API?
An API that takes an email address and returns the person behind it. BlitzAPI's version is built for work emails: POST /v2/enrichment/email-to-person resolves the address to a professional profile with name, headline, current role and company, LinkedIn URL and work history, so a signup or an inbound lead becomes a known contact without extra form fields.
What does the lookup return for an email?
A found flag and, when matched, the full person object: name, headline, current role and company, seniority, location, LinkedIn URL, work history, education, and skills.
Which emails work best?
Verified work email addresses give the strongest match rates, since they map directly to a professional identity. It's the ideal companion for product signups, demo requests, and event lists.
What happens when no match is found?
The response returns found: false and you can fall back to other identity keys (domain, name, or LinkedIn URL) using Profile Enrichment or Waterfall ICP.
How do I find the person behind a work email?
Send the address to POST /v2/enrichment/email-to-person. When it matches, found is true and person carries the full professional profile, including the LinkedIn URL you can store as a stable identity key.
