    The Clay alternative: data included in the plan, no separate data bill

    Clay is a powerful orchestration platform, but you pay a platform fee plus separate data credits per provider. Drimble ships the company data with the subscription, at rates published online.

    Annual pricing side by side

    All Drimble amounts are annual rates excl. VAT, with two months free on annual billing. Clay publishes its platform rates on clay.com: the monthly fee covers the platform, while data is bought separately with data credits — and the cost depends on the provider and data type you choose.
