I just got a request for a proposal from my first client, does Clay have a list of intent topics in one database ? Or do you just use Bombora and Lead Sift ?
Clay doesn't maintain its own native database of intent topics. Instead, we provide access to multiple intent data providers through our platform. You can connect to various intent data sources including 6Sense, G2, and others using our HTTP API feature. We consolidate data from 75+ different enrichment tools in our marketplace, allowing you to choose the providers that work best for your needs. You can use these tools to monitor intent signals and build complex workflows, such as auto-generating new prospects or updating CRM lead scoring.

So I need to use my own data source license ?
No, you don't need your own data source license to access intent data in Clay. You can pay with Clay credits to access most of our data enrichment tools without requiring any outside accounts. However, if you already have active subscriptions with intent data providers (like 6Sense or G2), you can use them for free in Clay by connecting your API keys. You can connect to these and other tools using our HTTP API feature.

How do I limit my exposure to Apollo costs, do I pick the intent topics before clay starts pulling ?
To control Apollo costs and usage, here are a few key steps you can take: 1. Test your enrichment on a small batch first (like 200 rows) before processing larger datasets 2. Turn off auto-update for your table by clicking the three-dot icon next to the table name and disabling the auto-update option 3. Process your data in smaller, controlled batches to stay within Apollo's rate limits and better manage which rows get processed This way, you can verify your setup and ensure you're only enriching the data you need before running larger updates.

Can I just use apollo to find the companies i'm interested in and use Clay to find the contacts i need ?
Yes, you can use this workflow in Clay. Here's how it works: 1. First, use Apollo.io to search and identify your target companies 2. Then in Clay, you can: • Use the "Lookup Multiple Rows in other Table" feature to search for people within those companies using company domains as the matching data point • Search for specific people using job titles at those companies using Apollo's integration • Find people by specific job titles across your target companies by providing a list of company domains and job titles This approach allows you to be strategic about which companies you want to target before searching for contacts within them.

Doesn't Clay find people using job titles? Why would i need Apollo's integration ?
Yes, Clay has its own Find People feature that can search by job titles without requiring Apollo's integration. The feature includes smart capabilities like: • Auto-querying similar job titles (e.g., searching "software engineer" will include variations like "SWE" and "software developer") • Option to toggle "Exact Keyword Match" for precise title searches • Ability to search by job function (e.g., "marketing", "engineering") to find people in specific departments This built-in functionality makes building lists faster and more efficient.

The first link didn't work - what does this mean ? https://www.dol.gov/general/topic/workcomp (+4)
If the link to https://www.dol.gov/general/topic/workcomp doesn't work, it likely means there's an issue with the website or the specific page you're trying to access. This could be due to various reasons such as the page being moved, temporarily unavailable, or the website experiencing technical difficulties. The "(+4)" at the end of the link you mentioned isn't part of the actual URL. It might be an indicator from a search engine or another platform showing that there are 4 additional results related to that link.

Hi Susan,
I'm sorry you're having trouble. Can you share a table URL here? Yes, Claygent would be able to find blog posts related to workers comp.
If you're having issues writing an effective prompt, you can use the meta-prompter found inside the AI action which allows you to tweak things.
Regarding the error and the missing contact, if you could show us where that happens, we can check why. Typically, you can also just click on the row to see why it's happening.
