There are two cost-effective ways to pull URL data in Clay: 1. Use the HTTP/API functionality in Clay, which costs no credits to run. This is especially beneficial if you already have subscriptions to external tools, as you won't need to pay twice.
2. Consider using Apify actors for web scraping. While some Apify actors may require a subscription (for example, the Reddit scraper costs $45/month after a free trial), the value of the data and insights gained often justifies the cost for businesses and researchers who rely on web data.
