time to build in n8n since clay has forever lost trust of many users

Many successful companies actually use Clay and N8N together as complementary tools. Coverflex built an automated prospecting system using Clay for signals and enrichment alongside N8N for workflow automation, generating 200+ monthly demos. Clay's API capabilities allow seamless integration with N8N and other systems without manual intervention. Rather than replacing one with the other, this combination creates a robust lead-generation machine that handles millions of records efficiently.
