Certain businesses such as non-profit organizations, educational institutions and other organizations may have tax exemptions in various jurisdictions. If your business has an exemption certificate please contact support@clay.com and provide a copy of the exemption certificate to us.

‍

On your invoice, sales tax is calculated based on Clay’s determination of the taxability of the product(s) you purchased, the address information provided by you, and the tax rate of the applicable jurisdiction where you are located. If you need to update your address information please contact support@clay.com.

‍

The entire amount charged to a customer for sales tax is remitted to the required

jurisdiction and no amounts are retained by Clay.

‍

For customers located in the United States, Clay is required to charge and collect taxes on sales in certain jurisdictions that have laws requiring the taxation of our products AND Clay has either a physical presence or has met certain economic thresholds within that jurisdiction. These taxes vary by jurisdiction but include sales taxes and excise or privilege taxes.

For customers located in the United States where Clay’s products are taxable but Clay does not have a physical presence or has not yet met the economic thresholds, no sales tax will be charged. This however may change in the future due to changes in law or Clay meeting any of the requirements for charging and collecting tax in that jurisdiction.

API-savvy, creative GTM professionals

We start off by publishing you to our website, support docs, and product search.

Yes! Submit your API template and we will review + publish it.

If a provider charges us for an API call, we will also charge Clay credits for that call. However, if a provider refunds us due to the inability to deliver valid data, we will correspondingly refund those credits back to you. Click here to view a list of actions that will refund if invalid data is returned.

Yes! Any current user can refer other users by navigating to their workspace settings in the app and clicking "Referrals". When somebody signs up for a paid account using your referral link, both of you will earn 3000 credits.

Unfortunately, we aren't able to grant any referral credits to those who didn't sign up using a referral link.

We  are highly selective about which providers we integrate with and only  work  with  companies who are GDPR  compliant. You also have full control of what integrations you use in your Clay workflows, so you can also reference any integration provider’s individual  privacy documents to decide whether to use them for your company’s GTM use cases.

We don’t use it for anything and never will. Only you or anyone you invite to your workspace can see your data. Visit https://www.clay.com/privacy for more information.

Please fill out this form with a few details about yourself and we’ll be in touch shortly.

Nope! If you have existing subscriptions to any data enrichment tools, you can use them free of cost in Clay. To add your own API key, click on workspace settings and find the integration you’d like to update.

List building/prospecting and data cleaning is free on Clay. Integrations with CRMs or email sending tools are also free on our Pro plan.

We charge credits for data enrichment, because we have to pay data providers to access lead or account research. That includes things like fundraising data, LinkedIn profiles, contact information, AI web scraping, etc.

If you have existing subscriptions to any data enrichment tools, however, you can use them free of cost in Clay by connecting your own API keys.

Clay credits are the currency you use to purchase different data points and actions in Clay. The vast majority of actions in Clay are either free, or cost 1-2 credits, but the average cost of a data point or action varies depending on the provider.

For example, finding an email costs 2 Clay credits if you use Prospeo, DropContact, Datagma, or Hunter.io. However, finding an email from People Data Labs costs 5 credits—simply because we pay more money to get the same data from People Data Labs vs. others.

Some data points, like mobile numbers, are harder to find and are more expensive as a result. Finding a mobile number starts at 2 credits, but it can cost 5 (People Data Labs), 13 (Selligence), 15 (ContactOut), or even 25 (Datagma) depending on the provider you use.

Clay is the enrichment layer that exists in a 2-way sync with your CRM to keep it always up-to-date. Your marketing operations team can set up all the enrichments you need in Clay. Because these will auto-sync to your CRM, your SDRs can operate simply in your CRM as usual.

For example, SDRs can find a relevant company and click a box to trigger Clay enrichments in the background. Within a few seconds, all the relevant enrichments will be added to your CRM as fields for them to reference.

We integrate with Hubspot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Close, Loxo, and more.

Clay doesn’t replace your email sequencer. Instead, we integrate with them so you can push finalized outreach from Clay to your sequencer and live campaigns.

You can use our AI integration to draft personalized lines of emails based on the research in your tables. Once you have a set of messages, you can connect them to an email sending tool of your choice.

We integrate natively with Smartlead, Instantly, Salesloft, Outreach, Hubspot and others. You can connect to any tool you want with HTTP API. You can also send messages directly to your CRM and use your CRM’s automations to send emails from there.

No. We currently use OpenAI, Gemini (Google), and Claude (Anthropic).

It’s cheaper per call to use your own OpenAI API key, but faster to go through ours. The price difference is around .003 cents vs 1 cent.

Claygent is best for finding real-time research on the internet, i.e. searching for news articles about a company.  “Use AI” is best at writing personalized messages that use data as well as categorizing data into different buckets (e.g. use company descriptions to categorize as B2B vs. B2C).

• Research unstructured data on the web: Claygent, our AI web scraper, can take a list of domains and ask it any question you want. That includes checking if a company offers free trials, SOC-II compliance, case studies, and more.
• Write personalized messages at scale: Our ChatGPT integration can compose a custom message for every lead you have in your tables based on the data you have available
• Clean and format data: Take any messy input, like a person’s name or company name, and standardize how it gets displayed.
• Categorize information into buckets: Segment your leads into various categories (e.g. B2B vs. B2C companies, categories by industry size, etc).
• Write formulas: Our AI formula generator allows you to write complex formulas in natural language—without needing to know how to code. For example, you can specify a data enrichment to run only if a specific condition is met.

Nope! You can build lists from LinkedIn, Google Maps, Github, CRMs, websites, and more for free on Clay. You only pay credits for data enrichment (e.g. finding contact information, firmographic data, etc.)

You can’t currently schedule enrichments, but we’re actively working on a solution. If you’re using a table with a CRM source, it’ll be live and updated in a two-way sync every 24 hours. (Just a reminder, you can simply click a button to re-enrich up to 50k records in a single table, even if it’s manual).

Clay has two Chrome extensions. One of them can help you scrape any website for any list. Another connects to any website to help you pull leads into Clay, automatically enrich them, and send them to your CRM—in one click.

An example of a trigger you can use in Clay is Finding Jobs from LinkedIn. There are other providers that can help you find news, headcount changes, etc. You can use our AI web scraper to monitor websites for changes as well. We’re actively working on expanding our list of trackable triggers.

Yes! You can assign your leads scores based on any criteria you’d like in Clay. See this video for more information.

Yes. We consolidate 75+ different enrichment tools, some with better global or regional coverage than others—you can choose which work best for your situation! If you ever find any gaps, let us know at support@clay.run and we’ll add a provider or help find you a solution.

Yes! We have various sources that you can use to kick off your list building. That includes scraping Google Maps to find local business leads, Github for engineering contributors, and more. You can also scrape any website with our Chrome Extension to kickstart your list building online.

You don’t need any outside accounts to use Clay. You can pay with Clay credits to access most of our data enrichment tools. Most people find that Clay, an email sending tool, and a CRM are all they need to get started sending campaigns.

If you do already have active subscriptions with other data enrichment tools, you can use them in Clay for free by using your API keys.

Yes. You can use our HTTP API feature to connect to any tool that you have API access to. That includes 6Sense enrichment & intent data, G2 intent data, Cognism enrich, Wappalyzer technographics, Zapier workflows, etc.

Clay doesn’t have any native data. Instead, we allow you to get data directly from 100+ external enrichment tools in our central, credit-based marketplace. You can choose the providers you like most on Clay, including Hunter, Apollo, SalesNavigator, and more, and get their data directly into your workflows.

Customers often skyrocket their data quality and coverage using our waterfall feature, which lets you search multiple enrichment tools in order for any given field of information—and only pay once a result is found.

We also enable AI-based enrichment to scrape and summarize websites, PDFs, and more.

• How can Clay give me better data coverage and pricing than Zoominfo or other data providers?
• We often double or triple data coverage rates at a 1/5th or less of the cost of Zoominfo. A recent enterprise client, seeking to enrich inbound leads with basic company/contact info, had 30% coverage rates with Zoominfo at about ~25 cents per enrichment. They increased their coverage rates to 80% while cutting costs to less than ~1 cent per enrichment with Clay.
• The reason why we have better data coverage is simple: we have multiple providers and waterfall them.
• The reason we have lower costs…Large data providers like Zoominfo buy and whitelabel  small  providers, then  charging  a massive  premium  for subscriptions. Clay, on the other hand,  is  very  transparent.  We  tell  you  exactly  which individual providers your  data comes  from, and  we give  you  access  to  wholesale  rates from them.  The price of Clay depends entirely on the enrichment tools you choose to use. In most cases, even with higher-cost tools in your Clay stack, Clay will be more effective and affordable than Zoominfo.

For prospecting, we integrate with 10+ sources, including LinkedIn, Google Maps, Github, and more.

For data enrichment, we integrate with 75+ of the market’s top tools, including Hunter, Harmonic, etc. You can also our AI web scraper and enrichment tools, to read and summarize information on websites, PDFs, and more.

For CRMs, we integrate with Hubspot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Close, Loxo, and more.

You’re never limited by our native integrations: you can also use webhooks and Clay’s HTTP API feature to connect to any tool that you have API access to.

No. Clay reduces the amount of manual grunt work that SDRs have to do and allows them to focus on nurturing and closing deals through cold calls, personal follow-ups, real sales conversations, and more.

Our paid plans start at $149/mo. Our free trial that gives you access to our Pro Plan ($800/mo value) for 14 days, with 1000 credits. We also have a free plan. See more details on our pricing page.

We launched on Product Hunt in August 2023 and scaled from $500k to $5M in revenue last year, with a team of under twenty. We crossed $8M in March 2024 and have a team approaching 40. We have over 100 integrations and tens of thousands of users, from tiny growth agencies to huge startups.

We have different beliefs than people who are building enrichment tools

1. No data set will be complete
2. You should be able to clean the data and get the data in the same place to simplify the workflow
3. We believe that by opening up different ways of prospecting, there will be creative techniques to find companies rather than one prescribed approach.

There are more APIs and data enrichment tools than ever before and more SaaS companies selling to other SaaS companies as well. This means outbound email is becoming harder, spam filters are getting better, and the need to be ultra-specific and personalized is now super important otherwise you will get banned.

Clay helps companies find the right customers and message them at the right time, which means sending a smaller number of highly targeted emails rather than large blasts of generic, spammy messages.

Clay helps companies avoid spam filters by actually sending relevant, compelling emails. This is better for companies and better for customers.

Traditional outbound sales meant people spending a lot of manual effort on bad research and generic, spammy emails that don’t land new customers.

By enabling new levels of deep research, targeting, and messaging, Clay helps businesses quickly find and message their ideal customers. We save teams immense amounts of time and money in the service of helping them grow.

Build lists from CSVs or 10+ prospecting sources including free access to companies, people, and open jobs data.

Enrich data with 100+ enrichment tools for superior data quality and coverage as compared to relying on just one tool.

Use AI to scrape websites, do unstructured research that previously required SDRs, and draft messages.

Teams commonly also use Clay to automate outbound lead generation campaigns, CRM enrichment, inbound lead scoring and outreach, and more.

Clay can replace your prospecting, data enrichment, and AI message drafting tools. We don’t replace email sending tools or CRMs (we integrate with them!)

Many people run successful campaigns using just Clay, an email sending tool, and a CRM.

You can continue to use any tools you have subscriptions to in Clay.

Here are a few typically successful team setups we’ve seen with Clay.

At enterprise companies:

• GTM leaders decide the criteria for lead enrichment, segmentation, and outreach
• A GTM operations team member implements the above criteria into Clay. (Clay is the team’s “enrichment layer,” which syncs to the CRM to keep data live and accurate).
• SDRs do not interface directly with Clay. Instead, they benefit from already-curated leads, enriched data, personalizations in their CRMs.
  • For example, one client’s SDRs simply click a button in Salesforce to fetch enriched data from Clay, including relevant a company summary, relevant contacts, and a draft message.

At startups, a growth lead often implements Clay and runs all of the company’s outreach single-handedly. Once the company reaches some level of volume, these startups hire a sales team member to help with live conversations.

At outbound agencies, one founder often sets up and runs Clay campaigns on behalf of many clients.

We serve GTM teams of all sizes, ranging from large enterprise companies to SMBs, startups, solo founders, outbound agencies, and more. We have thousands of users and hundreds of paying customers, including Ramp, Pave, Verkada, and more.

Clay helps go-to-market teams uplevel their data enrichment and automate personalized outreach. You can start with a list of leads, either prospected through Clay or from your own CRM, and follow the steps below.

Step 1: Basic Data Enrichment & Cleaning

Clay combines 75+ data enrichment tools into one marketplace, resulting in superior data coverage and quality—on anything from contact information to company firmographics. Our customers have tripled data coverage vs. providers like Zoominfo while cutting costs by a magnitude of ten or twenty.

Step 2: AI Data Enrichment

We enable you to use AI to do research that previously required manual SDR work, including reading and analyzing webpages, PDFs, and Google searches for specific information.

Step 3: Automated Outreach

Once you’ve nailed your data enrichment, you can use AI to craft relevant, compelling messaging based on that data. Everything syncs back to your CRM, allowing your team to go from campaign idea to execution in seconds.
