Hey guys, how do you guys verify your list to lower the chance of the emails being bounced like dead emails or whatnot?

I’m trying to look for solutions that’s affordable and reliable. Any good tool?

Thanks much in advance!

Hey everyone, first time setting up cold email at this scale and honestly kinda lost with all the options out there.

Goal is 500+ sends a day. Plan is 7 domains, 3 inboxes per domain, so 21 inboxes total. Most of the people we're emailing are on Gmail.

1. What inbox provider do you use, and why that one over the others? Which ones are actually legit (real Google/Microsoft accounts that won't get nuked) and which is the most affordable? Been looking at ColdInfra, Inboxlogy, Zapmail and just buying Google Workspace direct, but every comparison I find is written by one of the providers lol

2. What sending tool do you use, and which one works best with that inbox provider?

3. How many emails per inbox per day do you actually send, and does warm-up count toward that?

4. Anyone had their inboxes suspended? Which provider was it?

On a tight budget so real numbers help a ton. Thanks in advance!

I keep watching submittal review eat whole days. Someone cross-referencing a 2,100-page spec book against 50-page vendor PDFs, page by page, hoping the door hardware finish and the fire ratings line up. Two monitors, CTRL+F, no summary, no tabs.

So I built something: upload the spec and the submittal, get back a one-page compliance table where every row links to the page it came from. Real output here: https://submittalreviewer.vercel.app Nothing you upload is stored or used for training.

To be clear about what it isn't: it doesn't do your review. It kills the page-hunting, so the review takes minutes instead of a day. Every finding is still yours to make.

I'm looking for the first five reviewers to run a real submittal through it before launch, first 10 reviews free. What would make you trust an automated first pass, and what would make you refuse it?

I'm an international student, and my notes are only as good as what I can hear, which in some lecture halls isn't much: professor far from the phone's microphone, room noise, accent on top. Half-finished notes, then an evening spent patching the gaps.

I'm validating an idea before building it further: an app that separates voices, brings the professor's voice out of noisy and talk-over environments, is built to handle all accents, and turns lectures into study notes you'd actually reread.

Questions:

1. What do you do today: recorder, front row, or just survive?
2. Do your classes provide notes before exams, or are you on your own?
3. Does your school even allow recording?

All feedback welcome. (I have a demo if anyone genuinely wants to see it, just ask.)

Hey, I'm Logan, an international student and incoming MSCS at UTD this fall. I'm nervous about the coursework, sure, but honestly the thing I'm most worried about is the room.

I keep reading UTD threads about professors who are impossible to understand, and I know exactly what that sounds like: a lecturer 15 feet from the mic, chairs and people and doors, and an accent on top of all of it. I tested the apps everyone recommends on real lecture audio recorded that way. They fell apart.

So I'm validating a pain point before building anything: is this just me, or do other students here live it too?

What we're building:

• It locks onto the professor's voice and follows it through the room noise, the cocktail-party problem every note app skips
• Accent coverage that's measured, not claimed: the current benchmark covers 6 common accents at 3 noise levels, scored against human-transcribed ground truth, failures published, with more accents planned as demand grows
• Live captions while the lecture runs
• After class: every voice separated per speaker, plus clean organized notes, not a raw transcript dump

If you've had a class where you understood maybe half of what was said, tell me about it. Demo and all the numbers here: https://verbat.vercel.app/?src=utdallas

All feedback and ideas welcome. If this sounds like something you'd use, join the waitlist and help shape it.

I can't find that command in claude code in my terminal, and when use claude code desktop app, I got told "/remote-control isn't available in this environment."

I'm on Max 5x. What am I missing?

**** Updated - FIXED

It turns out my settings.json file had CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC enabled. Unsetting it fixed the whole thing. I'm not even sure why I had it turned on, but if you're running into the same issue, this might be the cause.
