What it does

AI-powered research
for any dataset.

OpenClay uses AI + live web search to research each row in your spreadsheet. It works for any type of data — not just companies.

Companies

CEO name, funding raised, employee count, tech stack, recent news

People

Current employer, job title, LinkedIn URL, published work, education

Startups

Latest round, investors, product description, competitors, Crunchbase data

Universities

Ranking, acceptance rate, tuition, notable alumni, research focus

Products

Pricing, reviews, features, competitors, G2 rating

Anything else

Countries, real estate, restaurants, research papers — just describe what you need

How is this different from Clay?

Clay connects to 150+ verified data providers (Apollo, ZoomInfo, Clearbit, etc.) for structured lookups. OpenClay takes a different approach: it uses AI + live web search to research each row — more like Clay's Claygent feature. This means:

  • Great for public info, news, general research, company overviews, anything Google can find
  • Great for custom research questions that don't fit into rigid data provider schemas
  • Not ideal for verified contact emails, phone numbers, or data that requires proprietary database access

How it works

Four steps.
Under two minutes.

01

Upload your spreadsheet

CSV or Excel. Parsed 100% in your browser. Nothing touches any server.

02

Describe what you need

Type in plain English — or pick a template. We auto-detect the new columns to add.

03

Pick a model & add key

Choose Claude or Gemini. See the estimated API cost. Then connect your key.

04

Test 3 rows, then run all

Preview results on 3 rows first. Happy? Run the full batch and download.

OpenClay is built in the open. I'd love to hear what's working, what's not, and what you'd like to see next.

Built OpenClay because data enrichment shouldn't cost $150/month. If you find it useful, I'd love to hear from you.
