Can We Replace Clay AI Agents with Custom ChatGPT or Claude API?

·

Hi everyone, is it possible to replace Clay AI Agents with a custom ChatGPT API or Claude API setup for lead or companies qualification? From what I can see, they don’t have internet access, so the only option is still to use Claygent - which is pretty expensive at scale. Even 20k credits won’t be enough for our workflow.

You can use custom ChatGPT or Claude API setups within Clay for lead or company qualification by connecting your own API keys. This allows you to leverage these models for tasks like categorization, enrichment, and message generation without using Claygent, which is only needed for real-time web research. Using your own API keys can significantly reduce costs, as "Use AI" does not access the internet and is less credit-intensive than Claygent. For internet-based research, Claygent is required, but for most qualification tasks based on existing data, the "Use AI" feature with your own API keys is a cost-effective alternative.
