Think of it as a data engine for your sales outreach, not the actual outreach tool. You no longer need to Google company data, browse recent company news, or spend hours on LinkedIn to find relevant data for closing deals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here&#8217;s exactly what Clay does.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Find and enrich leads<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pulls data from sources like LinkedIn, Apollo, Crunchbase, and Clearbit.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lets you input a basic list (e.g. company names or domains) and enrich it with contact names, roles, emails, and more.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, you can start with an existing lead list and enrich it or build a contact list from scratch using Clay&#8217;s data.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Automate research workflows<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scrape job titles, recent posts, funding events, tech stack, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Run custom logic (e.g., \u201cFind founders of SaaS companies using HubSpot who posted on LinkedIn in the last 30 days\u201d).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most businesses don&#8217;t have the resources to spend hours every day scraping for relevant leads.
