What are the cool ways you guys have found to SAVE Clay credits? I have been doing conditional runs, but happy to hear other thoughts as well.

Here are some effective ways to save Clay credits besides conditional runs: 1. Qualify leads before enriching: Use AI formulas to filter rows based on specific criteria, enriching only the most relevant contacts. 2. Test with small samples: Start with about 10 rows when using a new integration or AI enrichment to identify and fix errors before running the full column. 3. Turn off auto-update: Disable automatic enrichment for new entries while building your table to prevent unnecessary credit usage. 4. Use your own API keys: Add your own API key to any integration at no additional charge, potentially saving credits. 5. Look up existing data: Avoid duplicate enrichments by checking if the data already exists before running new enrichments. Remember, you can always purchase credit top-ups if needed, but they cost 50% more than your plan's typical per-credit cost.
