Apollo vs Listmint
Choosing between Apollo and Listmint usually comes down to how each one deals with the addresses your list actually struggles with. Apollo is a per-seat sales platform with a large contact database and bundled verification. Listmint is a verifier that reports catch-all outcomes as their own explicit status codes. Below we walk through how they price, what they do with catch-all addresses, and how accurate each claims to be, and we show where Giggal.ai lands on the same list so you have a third number to weigh.

How Apollo and Listmint handle catch-all
Apollo markets a seven-step process that distinguishes valid from invalid on catch-all at 91%. Listmint resolves catch-all addresses and returns them as catch_all_valid or catch_all_invalid. Catch-all domains accept mail for every name, so a normal check cannot tell a real mailbox from a dead one, and this is usually where a list quietly loses good contacts.
How Giggal.ai handles catch-all. Giggal.ai resolves catch-all addresses to a real deliverable or undeliverable result at 1.5 credits in a run, or 2 standalone.

Apollo is priced per user seat, with verification bundled rather than sold by volume. Listmint is sold by monthly plan, from Not published for 10,000 verifications a month. Both numbers come straight from each vendor's own pricing, so put them next to the volume you send each month.
