About ContactLint

ContactLint is a small, one-person developer tool. It is built and run by John Alewine in Kansas City, Missouri, and operates as a trade name of Crypto Boutique LLC, a Missouri limited liability company. That is the name you will see on a card statement.

What it is

An HTTP API and a hosted MCP server that check email addresses (syntax, MX and A records, disposable domains, role addresses, typos) and phone numbers (parsing, line type, region, E.164 format) before you save them. It is meant for signup forms, AI agents that write to a CRM, and list cleanup.

What it is not

It never opens an SMTP connection, so it cannot confirm that a specific mailbox exists or detect catch-all domains. If you need that, a mailbox verifier is the right tool; our comparison says which ones and what they cost.
