For PDFs, you have two great options in Clay: 1. Scrape Website tool - find it in the enrichment panel by clicking "add enrichment" at the top right 2. Claygent - can analyze and extract data from PDFs by answering specific questions Does that helps?

Isn't Claygent scraping based on every row in the table though, in this case I do not even have the existing data yet

Hey Bruce, thanks for the follow up context! Jumping in here to help a bit. To clarify, you have a PDF file that includes a list of company names that you'd like to transfer into a table to then enrich them? Or are you trying to find PDL URLs that have specific words or located under a specific site to then further scrape each one?
