Tomba

@tomba check if the domain 'freemail-service.com' is a webmail or disposable provider before I add these leads to our CRM

Domain Status Check for freemail-service.com: • Type: Disposable • Webmail: No • Accept-all: Yes • Risk Score: High This domain is flagged as a disposable email provider. Emails from this domain are typically temporary and may not be suitable for long-term lead nurturing campaigns. Consider filtering out disposable domains during lead import to maintain list quality and improve deliverability metrics.

This example demonstrates Tomba's domain validation capability, which helps teams maintain CRM hygiene by identifying temporary or low-quality email domains before import. Requires API key authentication. Note that domain classification databases update periodically, so results reflect current provider status but may change if a domain's usage pattern shifts.

@tomba create a new lead with email 'sarah.chen@techstartup.io', first name Sarah, last name Chen, company TechStartup, and tag this as 'conference-2024'

Lead Created Successfully: • Email: sarah.chen@techstartup.io • Name: Sarah Chen • Company: TechStartup • Tags: conference-2024 • Lead ID: ld_8x9k2m4p • Created: 2024-01-15 14:23:17 UTC This lead has been added to your default leads list. You can enrich this record with additional attributes or move it to a specific list using the lead ID provided.

This write operation shows how Tomba stores structured lead data directly from conversation context. The MCP creates the lead immediately—there's no preview or confirmation step. Make sure your team understands that @tomba create commands execute instantly and will consume API quota. You'll need appropriate API key permissions for lead creation.

@tomba pull our API usage statistics for this month and tell me if we're at risk of hitting our email verification limit before the billing cycle resets

Tomba API Usage Summary (January 2024): • Email Verifications: 8,420 / 10,000 (84% used) • Domain Searches: 1,203 / 5,000 (24% used) • Lead Enrichments: 456 / 2,000 (23% used) • Days Remaining in Cycle: 9 Analysis: At your current verification rate (~935/day), you're projected to exceed your 10,000 verification limit by approximately 1,000 requests before the February 1st reset. Consider prioritizing high-value verifications or upgrading your plan to avoid service interruption during the final week of this billing period.

This synthesis example pairs Tomba's usage data with the AI's calculation abilities to provide proactive quota management. The MCP returns raw statistics; the AI interprets burn rate and projects overages. Useful for teams running high-volume email validation workflows who need to stay within plan limits without manual spreadsheet tracking.

When Tomba saves your sender reputation before launch

A 3-person growth team at a B2B SaaS startup is building a cold email campaign to 800 prospects scraped from LinkedIn. Before loading the list into their outbound tool, they run every domain through Tomba's Domain Status check to flag webmail and disposable addresses. The MCP catches 140 Gmail addresses and 22 temp-mail domains that would have tanked their deliverability score. The team deletes those rows, enriches the rest with lead attributes, and ships a clean list in under an hour. This scenario wins when you're working with externally sourced contact lists and need a pre-flight validation step. If your CRM already has native email verification (like Apollo or ZoomInfo), Tomba becomes redundant.

Tomba as a lightweight CRM for solo operators

A freelance marketing consultant uses Tomba to manage 40-60 inbound leads per month without paying for HubSpot or Salesforce. When a prospect fills out her contact form, she uses the Create Lead tool to log the inquiry with custom attributes (budget tier, service interest, referral source). She reviews her lead lists weekly to prioritize follow-ups and checks usage statistics to stay under her API plan. This works because her volume is low and her workflow is simple—no multi-stage pipelines, no team handoffs. If she scales past 100 leads per month or needs automation triggers, she'll outgrow Tomba and need a real CRM. For now, it's a $50/month alternative to a $500/month seat.

When Tomba fixes inherited contact databases

A 6-person digital agency inherits a client's 12,000-contact Mailchimp list that hasn't been cleaned in three years. The account manager uses Tomba to batch-check domain status on the entire list, flagging 1,800 disposable or role-based addresses that are killing open rates. She exports the flagged rows, archives them in the client's CRM, and documents the cleanup in a deliverability audit report. The client's next campaign sees a 9-point bounce-rate drop. This scenario works when you're doing one-time forensic work on a stale database and need a fast, API-driven validation layer. If the client needs ongoing real-time verification at the point of capture, they should integrate a tool like ZeroBounce directly into their forms instead.
