The Datagma "Find Social Profile" action takes your full name and email address as inputs, with company domain as an optional enhancement for better accuracy.
Alternatively, Surfe offers professional profile finding using full name and company name, though pricing varies. [2]

The most reliable and affordable way is to use a “Find LinkedIn Profile” enrichment in Clay start with Findymail, Dropcontact, or Clay’s native person lookup if you already have the email and company. If you’re on a budget, you can also use Clearbit or FullEnrich, which tend to give solid match rates at a lower cost than Apollo or People Data Labs. You can also improve accuracy by running a waterfall enrichment (e.g., Dropcontact → Findymail → Clearbit) so it only uses the next provider if the previous one fails this keeps costs low and match rates high.
Thanks for sharing that approach! You're absolutely right about using waterfall enrichments to optimize both cost and accuracy. [1]
Our waterfall system automatically refunds credits when a provider doesn't return results, so you only pay for successful matches. For finding professional profiles with full name, email, and company name, you can also enhance accuracy by extracting the company domain from the email address first, then using that to enrich the company name as an additional input.
The waterfall approach you mentioned (running multiple providers in sequence) is exactly how our enrichment panel works - it maximizes data coverage while keeping costs low.
