Samuel L. · 2025-05-04 13:48:36.210105+00

I integrated Claude AI with my clay account through claude API. *The objective* is to generate a custom field with personalisation (based on the info on companies website) *the problem* is we keep getting the error message we don't have enough funds. *Question:* Funds for what?? We check there's $100 and we spent $0. What do we need to be able to use that feature?

To resolve the "not enough funds" error when using the Claude API integration with Clay, you have two options: 1. Use the Clay-managed account: This is the default option and doesn't require your own API key. However, it will use Clay credits for each AI operation, ranging from 0.5 to 6 credits depending on the model used. 2. Use your own API key: If you're on a paid plan, you can add your own Claude API key. To do this, go to Model > Account > Add Account in the enrichment panel. If you're already using your own API key, ensure you have sufficient funds in your Anthropic account. If you're using the Clay-managed account, check your Clay credit balance and consider purchasing additional credits if needed. If you continue to experience issues, request human assistance by clicking on "Talk to a person" for further support.

If you're using your own Claude API key and still getting a "not enough funds" error, it might be due to usage limits rather than actual funds. Here are a few things to check: 1. Verify your API key is correct and properly linked in Clay. 2. Check your Anthropic account's usage limits and tier. 3. Ensure your Anthropic plan supports the required tokens per minute (TPM) for the Clay features you're using. If the issue persists, you may need to upgrade your Anthropic API usage tier. You can check your current usage and limits in your Anthropic account settings. If you continue to experience problems, request human assistance by clicking on "Talk to a person" for more detailed support.

To use Claude AI with Clay without encountering the "not enough funds" error, you need an Anthropic API plan that supports sufficient tokens per minute (TPM) for Clay's features. While Clay doesn't specify a particular Claude plan, you should ensure your Anthropic account has adequate usage limits. For Clay's AI features using your own API key, you need to be on a paid Clay plan (Starter or higher). Then, add your Claude API key in Clay by going to Model > Account > Add Account in the enrichment panel. If issues persist, check your Anthropic account's usage limits and consider upgrading your API usage tier if necessary. For further assistance, request human support by clicking on "Talk to a person" in the chat.
