# TAPAC — B2B Contacts, Verified in Real Time

TAPAC is an AI-powered B2B contact finder built as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and REST API. It scrapes company websites, Discord communities, and Telegram channels, then validates every email via SMTP in real time — 2–5% bounce rate vs 10–35% for static databases.

## What it does

- Finds business emails and phone numbers for cold outreach
- Sources prospects from websites, Discord, and Telegram
- Validates every email via SMTP before returning it
- Ships as a native MCP server so AI agents can call it directly
- Pay-per-use: 100 free searches, then $0.10–0.50 per verified contact
