Philosophy

Bouncify is a marketing-team tool — upload a list, get back a clean list. Requiems API is a developer tool — call an endpoint per signup and enforce quality in real time. Both approaches work; it depends on where in your funnel you want the quality gate.

Migrating from Bouncify

  1. 1

    Move from batch upload workflow to real-time API call on form submission

  2. 2

    Use `requiems-api-key: <key>` header with `requiems.xyz/v1/email/validate`

  3. 3

    Map result fields: `deliverable` stays; `invalid` → `undeliverable`; `accept_all` → `catch_all`
