Improving Data Coverage in Clay: Seeking Insights and Tips

Hey everyone, I wanted to get your input on people enrichment with Clay. I’ve been running tests using Sales Navigator, Apollo, and Clay, and noticed that Clay’s data coverage only reaches about 30–40% of the target contacts in my lists. In comparison, Sales Navigator consistently gives me bigger and more complete lists than both Clay and Apollo. I was wondering if anyone has come across this issue or tested other methods to boost data coverage in Clay? Would appreciate hearing any insights or tips you might have! Thanks,

Let me clarify about Sales Navigator's search behavior vs Clay's enrichment. Sales Nav uses fuzzy search which returns more results but includes: - Loosely matched profiles that don't exactly fit your criteria - Low connection/inactive profiles - Potentially irrelevant data For more accurate enrichment in Clay, you can use our suggested keywords when typing since that'll bring more results, make sure to search using linkedin url (not domains) and you can also use the "external link" option when creating a Find People search to directly export your Sales Nav results. This gives you precise matches rather than inflated numbers with lower quality data. Let me know if you need help setting up that external link search.
