Hey Dave C., If domain reputation is your main concern Instantly is still the safer option right now clay sequencer works well for simple sending but it doesn’t manage warmup, rotation or deliverability controls the way Instantly does most people use Clay to build and personalize the list then send through Instantly so their domains stay healthy

Clay's sequencer is still new. If you haven't used any special tool for emails, you can try it. But if you have already used these purpose built tools, then use them. Some options here are Instantly, Smartlead, lemlist (more options here). PS: All affiliate links.
