Using GPT API with Clay: Which Tier is Required?
Hey, So, I want to use GPT API with Clay. I will be employing the GPT 4 mini model. What tier do I need to be in GPT for this to work in Clay?
I apologize, but there seems to be a misunderstanding in your question. Clay doesn't offer a "GPT-4 mini" model. When using Claygent (our AI Web Researcher feature), you have several model options, including GPT-3.5, GPT-4 Turbo, and Claude. To use GPT-4 with Clay, you need to ensure your OpenAI API plan has sufficient tokens per minute (TPM). For reliable use of OpenAI in Clay, you need 450,000 TPM for Claygent. If you're experiencing issues or need more specific information about using AI models with Clay, please let me know, and I'll be happy to help further.

Anaum K.··Hello Usman! Thank you for reaching out! Today, Clay requires 30,000 TPM (tokens per minute) for "ChatGPT - Generate Text" columns and 450,000 TPM for Claygent. "ChatGPT - Generate Text" will work with any tier, as long as the API key has access/can be used. To use Claygent, you will need a Tier 2 API key from OpenAI, as it supports the required TPM rates. You can check your OpenAI API usage or limits following these links: • Usage • Limits • Usage Tiers Their support team can help if you need to increase your usage limits. I believe you can request a review from the “Usage Limits” page in your OpenAI account settings. Just click on “Need help?”, submit your request, and they’ll review and follow up with you. They will typically grant the request if you have already prepaid the minimum amount required.

Hey, I want to use Web Research with GPT 4 mini to pull out competitors. The API key, whenever I test my connection says the same thing about rate limits, maybe because I am in tier 1. I want to make sure before I spend a $100 on gpt api that I absolutely need to & that once I do it will fix my problem
Bo (.··Hey, Totally get where you’re coming from. Just so you know, using your own GPT API key is optional—you can always run Web Research with the models available through Clay credits. If you do decide to use your own key, you’ll need to make sure it has the right access and tier to avoid those rate limit issues. But you don’t need to upgrade unless you specifically want to use your own API instead of Clay’s models. Let me know if you want help deciding which option’s best for your use case.

Hello, Okay, so I do wish to use my own GPT API key. What are the steps I have to take for Clay to allow this? I have a Tier 1 account created 3 days ago, I have $50 deposited and have used up 6000 tokens. Should I add the money to graduate to Tier 2 so that my API will work in Clay? or Tier 3 maybe? Some, any guidance would be appreciated.

Hey, To get your GPT API working smoothly with Clay, you’ll need at least 450,000 TPM (tokens per minute)—that’s the key requirement (typically tier 2) Higher tiers are better for reliability, but as long as you meet that TPM threshold, you should be good to go. Let me know if you have more questions
