Different tools for different jobs

Clay is built for workflow automation and multi-source enrichment orchestration. Clay is a workflow automation platform that orchestrates data enrichment from 100+ sources including LinkedIn, Apollo, Clearbit, and custom waterfalls.

Kaspr serves a different purpose: linkedin contact extraction with eu gdpr compliance. Kaspr is a LinkedIn contact extraction tool backed by Cognism, providing phone numbers and emails with GDPR compliance for European sales teams.

💶 Pricing comparison

Both Clay (From $149/month) and Kaspr (From €49/month) are in a similar pricing tier.

20–30% of B2B contacts change roles every year. Neither Clay nor Kaspr is designed to continuously monitor your existing CRM for job changes and update records automatically — that's a different tool category.

🇪🇺 GDPR and data compliance

Kaspr has a stronger GDPR posture — GDPR (backed by Cognism). Clay claims GDPR compliance but relies on US infrastructure.

For European teams or those with EU customers requiring documented sub-processor chains, the compliance posture of your enrichment vendor matters. Make sure to request a DPA and sub-processor list before committing.

Neither fits perfectly? A third option worth knowing
