Social Email
Emails across multiple social platforms
What Social Email is for
Contact lists are rarely single-platform. An agency's target list mixes LinkedIn-first B2B companies, Instagram-first creators, and businesses whose only real presence is a website. Searching each platform separately is slow and leaves gaps.
Social Email widens the net across multiple social platforms in one pass, filling in addresses that a single-platform search would miss.
It is a coverage tool. Where a focused source returns a high hit rate on a narrow population, this trades some precision for breadth across a mixed one.
How it works
Supply a list of profiles or identifiers spanning platforms. Rather than restricting to one network, the search looks across several for published contact addresses.
Each identifier is checked and any published address is returned with the platform it came from, so you can see which channel produced which contact.
It is most valuable as a second pass. Run a focused source first — Instagram Email for creators, Maps Email for local businesses — then use this to fill the gaps left behind.
Because coverage varies by platform and profile type, expect a lower hit rate than a single-platform search against a well-matched list. That is the trade being made.
What each result contains
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| identifier | string | The profile or handle supplied as input. |
| platform | string | Which network the contact was found on. |
| string | null | Published contact address, where one exists. | |
| fullName | string | null | Name or display name from the profile. |
| profileUrl | url | null | Source profile URL for verification. |
| bio | string | null | Profile description, where published. |
What you get
- ✓Find email addresses associated with profiles across multiple social platforms.
- ✓Broaden enrichment coverage when a single-platform search returns incomplete data.
- ✓Best for agency workflows handling diverse client target lists.
Example use case
When to choose this source
Use this for mixed, cross-platform lists, or as a second pass after a focused source. If your targets are all on one platform, the dedicated source for that platform will return a better hit rate for less.
Limitations worth knowing
This is a Pro-plan source at eighteen credits per result and it is the broadest of the email sources, which means the lowest per-profile hit rate. Use it where breadth is genuinely needed.
Only publicly published addresses are returned. Profiles that do not publish one yield nothing.
Coverage differs by platform and profile type, so results are less predictable than a single-platform run.
It enriches identifiers rather than discovering people. The input list has to come from somewhere else.

Frequently asked questions
- How does this differ from Instagram Email?
- Instagram Email searches one platform and returns a high hit rate on Instagram accounts. This searches several and suits mixed lists. Use the focused source when your list is single-platform.
- What hit rate should I expect?
- Lower than a well-matched single-platform run, because it covers a broader and more varied population. You are billed per result returned, so misses do not cost you.
- Which plans include it?
- Pro, alongside Instagram Email, LinkedIn Company, and LinkedIn Posts.
- Should I run this first or last?
- Last. Run the focused source that matches most of your list first, then use this to fill in what remains.
