Find an email address by person name and domain or company name.
AI agents call find_email to retrieve information from Zerobounce without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves email addresses based on search criteria (name, domain, company). It is a read-only query that retrieves data without side effects, matching the 'Read' category definition of 'retrieves or queries data; no side effects (search, list, get, fetch)'. Severity is low because email discovery has minimal blast radius—it cannot modify systems, execute code, delete data, or move money.
