About Clay
Clay bends its GTM data platform toward AI agents, with spend guardrails to match
Clay is a go-to-market data platform that enriches contact and company records and automates outreach. Recent releases push hard on three fronts at once: an agentic layer (Sculptor across tables, search, and Claygent), ever-broadening data sources, and controls to keep AI-driven credit spend in check.
