About Web
Claygent is Clay's AI web scraper that acts like a virtual research assistant, browsing websites and returning real-time, dynamic insights at scale. Unlike traditional enrichment providers that return static database results, Claygent can pull niche, custom data (the 'last mile data problem') that is important for go-to-market processes but too specific for standard data providers. It is used to enrich both companies (requiring a company domain) and people (requiring a LinkedIn profile URL) by writing prompts that guide the AI to extract relevant information from live web pages.
