EmailRep

EmailRep is an email address reputation and threat-intelligence API operated by Sublime Security, Inc. It crawls and enriches data across social media profiles, professional networking sites, dark-web credential leaks, data breaches, phishing kits, phishing emails, spam lists, open mail relays, spam traps, domain age and reputation, and email-deliverability signals to predict the risk associated with any email address. The free, JSON-over-HTTP REST API returns a `reputation`, a `suspicious` flag, a `references` count, and a detailed signal block (blacklisted, malicious_activity, credentials_leaked, data_breach, domain_reputation, deliverable, spoofable, profiles, and more). A POST `/report` endpoint lets analysts contribute observations of malicious email behavior back into the reputation graph.

EmailRep publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: Reports API and Reputation API. Tagged areas include Security, Email, Email Reputation, Threat Intelligence, and Phishing.

The EmailRep catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.

EmailRep’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, signup flow, pricing, engineering blog, and 41 more developer resources.

features:
- name: Reputation Verdict
  description: Each email lookup returns a `reputation` of `high`, `medium`, `low`, or `none` summarizing the overall trust
    signal for the address.
- name: Suspicious Flag
  description: A boolean `suspicious` field indicates whether the email should be treated as risky based on combined positive
    and negative signals.
- name: References Count
  description: '`references` is the total number of positive and negative reputation sources observed for the address or its
    associated domain.'
- name: Credential-Leak and Breach Signals
  description: Detects whether the email has appeared in known data breaches, dark-web credential leaks, or pastes — historically
    and within the last 90 days.
- name: Domain Reputation and Age
  description: Reports `domain_exists`, `domain_reputation`, `new_domain`, and `days_since_domain_creation` so callers can
    weight reputation against domain freshness.
- name: Deliverability and Mail-Server Posture
  description: Reports `deliverable`, `accept_all`, `valid_mx`, `spoofable`, `spf_strict`, and `dmarc_enforced` for both fraud
    prevention and legitimate sender hygiene.
- name: Provider Classification
  description: Classifies the address as `free_provider`, `disposable`, `suspicious_tld`, or `spam` to expose throwaway or
    low-quality accounts.
- name: Online Profile Discovery
  description: Returns a `profiles` array enumerating social and professional networking sites where the email has been observed.
- name: Crowd-Sourced Reporting
  description: '`POST /report` accepts community submissions of malicious email behavior (BEC, phishing, fraud, account takeover,
    maldoc) with tags, description, timestamp, and an expires window so signal feeds the reputation graph.'

    to protect sender reputation.
- name: Threat-Intelligence Enrichment
  description: Enrich SIEM, SOAR, and case-management workflows with email reputation signals alongside netflow, EDR, and
    email-gateway telemetry.
