United States pricing
Published pricingClay publishes self-serve, credit-based pricing (USD). "Data Credits" buy data from its 150+ provider marketplace (from ~$0.05 each); "Actions" run operations. A "bring your own API key" option avoids Clay's data-credit charge for that provider. Self-serve plans were simplified to Launch/Growth in March 2026.

| Launch | $185 | / month | $167/mo billed annually. |
| Growth | $495 | / month | $446/mo billed annually. |
| Enterprise | Custom | Custom | Custom credits & actions; annual commitment. |
What you'll actually pay
Clay charges by credits: you spend them to reveal contacts. Watch the per-action cost: a phone-number reveal usually costs far more than an email, so your real cost depends on how phone-heavy your prospecting is.
