About

What is OpenClay?

OpenClay is a powerful, free, and open-source AI data enrichment tool designed to transform your spreadsheets. It functions as an alternative to services like Clay.com, leveraging AI models (Claude or Gemini) combined with live web search to research and enrich each row of your spreadsheet. Users can upload CSV or Excel files and describe the data they need in plain English, such as CEO names, funding, employee counts, or recent news for companies, or job titles and LinkedIn URLs for individuals. The tool operates entirely in your browser, ensuring privacy by never uploading your files or storing your API key on any server. You bring your own API key, paying only the AI provider's token usage directly, with no platform fees from OpenClay. It's ideal for public information, news, company overviews, and custom research, offering a transparent cost estimation before running.

Best used for

Ideal for marketers who need to enrich lead lists with company data, sales reps looking to find contact information and recent news, and startup founders needing to research competitors or market trends. Especially valuable for those seeking a privacy-first, cost-effective alternative to traditional data enrichment platforms.

FAQs

Is OpenClay truly free to use?

Yes, OpenClay itself is 100% free and open-source, with no platform fees or subscriptions. The only cost you incur is for the AI provider's token usage (Anthropic or Google), which you pay directly at their published rates using your own API key.

How does OpenClay ensure my data privacy?

OpenClay is designed with privacy in mind. Your files are parsed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to any server. Your API key is stored only in browser memory and never persisted. There are no databases, cookies, or localStorage used, and the entire codebase is open source for verification.

What AI models and file formats does OpenClay support?

OpenClay supports Anthropic Claude (Haiku 4.5, Sonnet 4.5, Opus 4.5) and Google Gemini (2.0 Flash, 2.5 Flash, 2.5 Pro), all with live web search. It supports CSV (.csv), Excel (.xlsx), and legacy Excel (.xls) files up to 10MB, with parsing done locally in your browser.

Do I need to create an account or provide a credit card to use OpenClay?

No, OpenClay requires no account, sign-up, or credit card. You simply open the app, upload your spreadsheet, add your AI API key, and begin enriching. Your API key remains in your browser's memory and is never stored.
