🪜 Step by step
- 1☐
Sign up and install the extension
Create a Clay account and add the Clay for Chrome extension (button on this page). It lets you pull lists from websites into Clay.

Enrich the data
Enrichment means looking up extra facts automatically. Add columns for job title, company news, recent hires or funding.
- 4☐
Add an AI column
Add an AI column with the prompt below to write a personal opening line for each row.

Read 20 rows. Fix the prompt until the lines sound human and accurate.

Using this information about the person: name {{Name}}, role {{Title}}, company {{Company}}, recent news {{Company News}}.
Write ONE friendly opening sentence (max 25 words) for a cold email that mentions something specific and true about them or their company, and connects it to [your offer]. No flattery, no exclamation marks. If there's no useful news, return 'SKIP'.⚠️ Tips & common mistakes
- Follow anti-spam and data-protection rules (in Malaysia, the PDPA) and include an opt-out.
- Quality beats volume: 50 good emails > 1,000 generic ones.
- Warm up new email domains before sending a lot.
