Cut Clay enrichment costs by 50% with Bring Your Own API Key (BYOAK) + better targeting

Bring your eCore API key into Clay to reduce wasted credits, improve match confidence, and save 50% on supported enrichment calls — including contact, person, and account data.

Built to work with Clay workflows — not replace them.
Use eCore where quality and cost efficiency matter most.

Clay is powerful. But credit costs rise fast when targeting is off.

Many teams spend too much in Clay because enrichment happens before they confirm the target is a strong match.
That creates a hidden cost:

  • Credits spent on outdated contacts
  • Wrong persona / wrong level matches
  • Person-to-account mismatches
  • Low-confidence records entering workflows
  • Extra cleanup after enrichment
  • Higher cost per usable contact

If the targeting layer is weak, the workflow gets expensive — even when the automation is great.

Use eCore as a validation-first enrichment layer inside Clay

With eCore BYOAK (Bring Your Own API Key), you can improve target quality before enrichment and reduce spend across the data points you use most.

Key value points

  • Save up to 50% on supported enrichment calls
  • Improve match precision before enrichment
  • Increase confidence in contact and account data
