Clay
5.0MARKETING
Clay lets teams publish workflows as templates and adds healthcare data.
◆ Current state
Clay is a go-to-market data platform that combines enrichment, audiences, ads and outbound sequencing. Late October brought Claygent Auto-mode, which picks a model per row for cost, plus MCP client allowlists and per-workflow credit caps. The week of November 2 added Workflow Templates that anyone can copy, a Definitive Healthcare integration, Salesforce traffic through a customer's own proxy, and tags for Audiences segments.
◆ Where it's heading
Clay ships a weekly roundup that alternates between widening its data sources and adding the admin controls larger customers ask for. Workflows have become its main unit, now with budgets, triggers from signals and, with templates, a way to share them between workspaces.
◆ Prediction
Expect templates to grow into a shared gallery and more vertical data providers like Definitive Healthcare to follow.

Expect more single-purpose screen apps and further work on the AI agent integration in the November notes.
