Answer Capsule

Clay enriches and segments your leads, but AssignX AI agents instantly turn those enriched contacts into live conversations.

By importing Clay leads into AssignX, you can assign them to AI agents that automatically call, text, and email prospects — qualifying them in real time, reducing no-shows, and boosting speed-to-lead.

‍

Why Clay Alone Isn’t Enough

Clay is one of the most powerful tools for data enrichment and lead segmentation.

With access to massive data sources and enrichment rules, Clay helps agencies, SaaS teams, and recruiters build high-quality lead lists.

But Clay’s strength is data, not engagement. Once leads are enriched and exported, they often sit idle in your CRM or spreadsheets, waiting for SDRs to follow up manually.

This delay creates friction. In today’s sales environment, speed matters most. If you don’t reach out immediately after enrichment, your competitors will.
