Clay alternative

The Clay alternative for ready contacts, not table workflows.

Clay is a powerful spreadsheet for building enrichment flows. ListPlus starts from the other end: which contacts are ready for which job, and what is missing.

Readiness, not rows

100+ checks tell you per purpose what is ready, enrichable or unusable.

Your agent, your rules

MCP and REST on every list, with column-level permissions.

EU-hosted, free to start

Frankfurt hosting, free plan (import 25,000 records, edit 5,000), Pro from $55.

Comparison

Where the two differ.

Both enrich contacts with external providers. The working model is different.

When ListPlus fits

Pick ListPlus when the list is the problem.

Three situations where a quality-first tool saves more time than a flow builder.

Your CRM has the leads already

You need to know which records are usable, fill the gaps and sync back. Not build a new table.

Your agent does the research

Claude or ChatGPT plans the work. ListPlus supplies the tools, the checks and a list to deliver into, under your permissions.

You work in Outlook

The add-in shows who is behind an email and enriches on demand, no browser extension.

When Clay fits

Pick Clay when you build flows.

An honest comparison names the other side too.

Many providers in one table

Clay's strength is chaining a large catalog of data providers column by column.

Custom scoring formulas

If your team writes formulas and scores inside a spreadsheet, Clay is built for that.

Chrome-first workflow

If your team lives in Chrome and Gmail, Clay's extension matches that.

Good to know.

Can I move a Clay table to ListPlus?

Export the table as CSV and import it. Columns are detected and typed, and the checks show what is ready.

Does ListPlus have its own database?

No. Contact search uses external sources, including an audience database of about 300 million profiles, with filters for role, location, industry and headcount.

How is enrichment billed?

In credits; e-mail and phone lookups are charged only when found. 1 credit is $0.035 with Pro or Premium, $0.06 on Basic. A verified email costs from 2 credits. Rates on the pricing page.

Start with anything. End with contacts that are ready.
