if I use open AI API for enrichments, does it still charge any clay credits or are the cost then 100% on open ai side?

    No, you won't be charged Clay credits when using your own OpenAI API key for enrichments. If you have existing subscriptions to any data enrichment tools (including OpenAI), you can use them in Clay completely free of cost by connecting your own API keys. To add your OpenAI API key, simply click on workspace settings and find the OpenAI integration you'd like to update. This applies to all data enrichment tools - we only charge credits when using our integrated data providers, not when you bring your own subscriptions.

    Yes, when you use your own OpenAI API key for enrichments in Clay, 100% of the costs are on the OpenAI side, and you won't be charged any Clay credits. If you have existing subscriptions to any data enrichment tools (including OpenAI), you can use them completely free of cost in Clay by connecting your own API keys. To add your OpenAI API key, simply go to workspace settings and find the OpenAI integration you'd like to update.

    Hi Maxim, thank you for reaching out. If you use your own API key, then you will not be charged Clay credits, it will instead charge your OpenAI account.

    To use your own credits when running the prompt, ensure you have selected an OpenAI model under "Model," as your OpenAI API key only works with OpenAI models. Then, in the "Account" dropdown menu, choose your personal API key instead of the Clay one.
