# Clay MCP

Vendor: Clay  
Category: crm  
Auth: API_KEY  
Composio slug: `clay`

Clay is a go-to-market data enrichment and workflow automation platform for searching people and companies, running routines, and querying workspace tables.

## Verdict

Clay's MCP lets your team run prospecting searches and enrichment routines without leaving Switchy. @mention Clay to query its database of 300M+ contacts and 100M+ companies, then enrich records with email, phone, job history, or firmographics. Sales and RevOps teams use it to build target lists, validate leads, and append missing data during deal research. Each search and routine consumes Clay credits from your workspace quota, so treat it like a metered API — test queries small before scaling up.

## Tools

- **Continue Search** — Consume one next page from an existing Clay query-mode search. Each call advances Clay's server-side iterator and consumes search quota; call again only while has_more is true.
- **Get Current User** — Return the Clay user and workspace associated with the connected Public API key.
- **Get Routine Run Results** — Check progress or fetch one page of results for an existing inline Clay routine run. Returns progress while processing and an explicit next_cursor when another terminal result page is available.
- **Get Search Query Reference** — Return Clay's current advanced-search field and grammar reference for composing people or company queries.
- **Run Routine** — Start a Clay routine for 1-100 items, poll it for a bounded time, and return completed item results or the current run ID and progress. Execution may consume Clay credits and can notify an existing webhook when webhook_id is provided.
- **Search People or Companies** — Create a Clay query-mode people or company search and consume its first result page. This advances a stateful search iterator and consumes Clay search quota; use Continue Search only while has_more is true.
