Overview

Clay is a go-to-market data enrichment and workflow platform for sales, marketing, and revenue operations teams. It combines a marketplace of data providers, multi-provider waterfall enrichment, AI-assisted web research with Claygent, and workflow automation for prospecting, account research, lead scoring, and personalized outreach. Teams can connect CRM and data warehouse systems, sync and enrich records, and route signals into repeatable workflows. The current plan structure includes Free, paid Launch and Growth, and custom Enterprise tiers. The official pricing page currently shows different paid starting amounts between plan cards and its FAQ, so no paid starting figure is quoted here.
