Clay’s new pricing is probably my fault. We were paying $314 a month, but using (based on their new model) $214,087.50 worth of Clay a WEEK. Here’s the story:
A year ago Clay's head of product hopped on a call with me.
I told him we were hitting their platform 17.3 million times per week.
Almost all custom events (i.e. HTTPs)
I remember his response being something close to "Holy shit, I think you are the largest user of Clay"
I said yeah that doesn't surprise me.
But then it also came up that we were only paying $3,769 a year.
We talked about HTTPs, custom integrations, how we were basically using Clay as a giant API orchestration layer.
I knew his wheels were turning.
If you saw my last post, you know we eventually replaced Clay entirely with a $200/mo Claude Code subscription. 272,000 leads per second vs Clay's 27 hours for the same volume.
But before we left, we were the perfect case study for why Clay's old pricing was broken.
$314/mo for 17.3 million weekly, for what they now call ‘actions’.
Run the math. We were paying $0.00001815 per action.
Clay announced their new pricing structure. They split everything into Data Credits and ‘Actions.’
Actions are HTTPs, custom integrations, API calls. The exact things we were doing 17.3 million times a week.
The new price per action credit works out to about 1.24 cents each. A 681% price increase for us
I know you might say, "But Clay is letting people stay on the old pricing if they want," and I hear you
but
I also don't know how it makes me feel that someone brand new would have to pay $856,350 per month to get the same advantages I had when I was starting out only 3 years ago.
I'm not saying that one call caused the entire restructuring.
But I am saying their head of product learned that day that someone was running 17 million HTTPs a week for the price of a nice dinner.
And now every HTTP costs 1.24 cents.
anyways
For the last year, we've been trying to figure out how to get off of our dependency on Clay.
That was until Cursor / Claude Code / Codex came out
My VP of Growth, @James, who doesnt know how to write a single line of code, touched Claude Code for the first time
And three weeks later he replaced Clay for us
We could process 272k rows per second now for the cost of a Claude Code sub
My last post was about that system
Then after that post, Clay announces new pricing that specifically monetizes the exact thing we were doing at a massive scale.
Coincidence? Maybe.
But
I may owe everyone using Clay an apology
If your Clay bill just went up, you can probably blame me for that one. Sorry!
I put together a system blueprint of what I did to replace Clay for myself -- every tool, the tech stack, a Clay vs custom comparison, and a 6-step playbook for building your own. Plus a video walkthrough where I show you the live system and how each tool actually works.

We were Clay's largest user at one point in time, hitting their platform 17.3 million times per week. Last month we replaced them entirely with a $200/mo Claude Code subscription.
I can't write code. Neither can James, my VP of Growth who built the replacement.
Here's the full story.
Clay is a GREAT product and I TRULY think most people should use it. But we hit their ceiling.
50,000 row limit per table.
12.5 million row cap per workspace.
Tables that take days to actually delete.
Clicking "run all" thousands of times and waiting days for things to clear out.
So
When you're processing millions of leads, all the above become the bottleneck of your entire business.
James had never touched Claude Code before. Three weeks after learning it, he built our entire core system.
With Clay, processing 1 million leads took 27 hours.
And it would error out often enough that we would always have to plan on hitting the “run all rows” button again on 20+ clay tables. IYKYK
but
Our new system waterfall enriches 1 million leads in 5 seconds. 272,000 leads PER SECOND.
AND On top of the core engine, we vibe coded a Google Maps scraper that pulls leads zip code by zip code across all 32,000 US zip codes.
AND An AI lead finder that hits 95% contact match rates where Apollo gives you about 30%.
AND Ad library scrapers for Google and LinkedIn.
AND An AI campaign analysis system.
AND An auto-refill system so clients never run out of leads mid-campaign.
One we started building with Claude, we just couldn’t stop
Now we have the data ready for clients sending 5 million emails a month within 1 week of signing the contract.
I put together the full system blueprint -- every tool, the tech stack, a Clay vs custom comparison, and a 6-step playbook for building your own. Plus a video walkthrough where I show you the live system and how each tool actually works.

Last Month I helped my brother Josh make $24,337 in 1 Month and 9k In 1 day, ALL by posting tiktok slideshows so now I'm posting the full case-study on how he did it..
-How I increased his conversion rate 400%
-Exact Method I taught him
-How I got him to go viral
Retweet & Comment “Josh” (must be following) and I'll send you the link to the full case study.

I built a Morning Brew-style daily newsletter that writes itself with AI (now at 10,000 daily readers)
(and I’m nuts for open-sourcing it)
The AI system behind @therecapai clones how a human writer would function, but each step is packaged into an agentic workstream.
The full automation handles:
- Daily scrapping hundreds of reddit threads, hackernews, twitter posts, Google news API to build a massive data lake of 'daily AI news'
- Dozens of custom prompts to pull the top daily stories from this data lake, write short breakdowns, & format the newsletter
- Builds custom images based on each story with ChatGPT image generator
This was 5 MONTHS of iterating and fine-tuning prompts to get the output and content to an extremely high quality state (no AI slop)
and call me crazy, but I'm giving it away for free.
Just Retweet, follow me, and comment on this thread "NEWSLETTER"
and I'll DM you the full n8n template that you can copy/paste and fine-tune to your use-case as well as a full hour long video breakdown explaining the build.
Also you can see the actual contents of the newsletter for yourself with the link below—proof of the quality that is possible with AI.
RIP media companies 💀 AI is here.

I’ve been studying Chase Hughes recently and… holy shit this guy is a genius
And I do not say that lightly
This dude has cracked the human body language code
I’m going thru both his books rn
“Six-minute X-ray” and “The behavioral Ops Manual”
These are the most actionable books on human body language and surface level psychology i’ve ever read.
If I read this all those years ago when trying to learn social skills it would’ve saved me years of trial and error.
Give it a read you won’t be let down
Now i’m reading it to become better at communication.
You’re never too experienced to learn something new

You can create a v1 of this in about 5 mins.
Start with a small version - prompting, views, history, etc. Better if you can upload a .pdf of whatever info you want it to know.
Limited by their content filter ofc. Can move off later to custom.
