For any GitHub username, returns publicly-visible email addresses from their commit history and profile, plus signal data (recent repos, followers, language, last activity).

Why use this

  • Real, verified emails — pulled from actual git commits these users authored. If their email shows on git log, it's their email.
  • Rich context per user — name, company, location, bio, twitter handle, blog, followers, public repos, recently-pushed repos with stars + language
  • Filters @users.noreply by default (GitHub privacy-mode emails)
  • Apify proxy rotation built-in — avoids the 60/hr unauthenticated GitHub rate limit at scale
  • No GitHub token needed for moderate volumes

Use cases

  • Recruiting — find contact info for engineers active on a specific stack
  • Sales / dev rel — outreach to maintainers of relevant open source
  • Investor scouting — emails for technical founders
  • Community building — identify and reach contributors

100-user run = ~$5.01. Cheap enough for daily refresh of a 1000-name pipeline.
