With Scrubby, you can expect:
- ~98.7% accuracy in detecting hard bounces among catch-all/risky emails
- Bounce rates under 2% when using Scrubby-validated addresses
- Up to 42% more usable leads recovered from your "risky" email segment
Hard bounces vs Soft bounces:
- Hard bounces occur when an email address doesn't exist — Scrubby excels at catching these
- Soft bounces can result from offline servers, full inboxes, or poor sender reputation — these depend on factors beyond the email address itself
Scrubby focuses specifically on hard bounce detection, which is the most critical factor for protecting your sender reputation. Soft bounce rates depend on your list quality, sender score, domain reputation, and email content.
Processing time: Results are typically delivered within 48-72 hours because Scrubby performs deep inbox-level validation rather than instant SMTP checks. This trade-off in speed delivers significantly more accurate results.
