Hi Garo! Thanks for reaching out, do you mind sharing more about what you want to do? And are you talking about this kind of signal?

Hey Garo A. yup, you can do this natively with Clay using Custom Signals + Google Search enricher just set up a search like site:reddit.com OR site:twitter.com "looking for a CRM" clay will pull recent posts where people mention switching CRMs. Combine that with job postings or tech stack changes for even stronger signals

Thanks Abdul S. how about search engines?

yeah Garo A. clay uses Google Search under the hood for those custom signals, so you're basically tapping into search engines already. Just craft the right query and Clay handles the rest

Hey Garo! If you use signals like people were mentioning, you don't need to start with a list of companies/contacts first. You could also try using our TrustRadius integration as a source, to help find companies with buying intent + then specify for "Customer Relationship Management (CRM)" under "Main Object Category" in settings. Hope this helps!
