Different tools for different jobs

💶 Pricing comparison

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

20–30% of B2B contacts change roles every year. Neither Kaspr nor Clay 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.
