Setting up Clay in ChatGPT
Next, let's set up Clay in ChatGPT so you can start using it right away.
🚀 Getting Started
To get started, type @Clay in the prompt box.
When prompted, you'll authenticate through a route to app.clay.com/oauth. Sign in to your existing account or create a new one - either way, you'll get 500 free credits to start exploring.
Once you're signed in, you're ready to start using Clay directly within ChatGPT.
💳 Credits and Pricing
Let's talk about credits and pricing so you know what to expect.
When you start your free trial of Clay, you get:
- 500 free credits for ChatGPT
- 2,000 additional credits in the Clay platform
How many credits do Clay in ChatGPT interactions cost? Each interaction typically costs 20-100 credits, depending on the complexity of what you're doing.
After you've used your free credits, you have two options: continue using search-only features (which remain free), or upgrade your access for full functionality.
🎯 Optional But Recommended: Add Business Context
There's one last setup step that's optional but highly recommended: adding your business context.
Here's the thing: you can use Clay in ChatGPT without any context at all. But if you add context about your business, you get noticeably better output tailored to your specific needs.
The fastest way to do this: go to My Settings > Business Context, then use your company domain. Clay will pull in relevant information, and you can edit it as you learn what works best for your use cases.
This small step makes a big difference in the quality and relevance of the results you'll get.
