Overview
Kickbox’s open endpoint checks if an email’s domain is disposable — keyless and CORS-enabled (verified live). The full verification API (syntax, deliverability, risk) is the paid product; the open endpoint is free.
Quick Start
Disposable check (verified live):
curl "https://open.kickbox.com/v1/disposable/test@gmail.com"
{ "disposable": false }
Authentication
None — keyless for the open endpoint.
Rate Limits & Notes
- The open endpoint is free and keyless (verified).
- It only answers
disposable: true|false— the full Kickbox API (email verification with deliverability checks) is a paid service. - Great for a quick “reject burner emails” check in signup flows.
