Looking for a Clay AI alternative?

Data enrichment has changed for the better–say hello to AI Researcher from Gradient Works.

Introducing AI Researcher: the ultimate solution for answering your toughest account data questions. With advanced AI search and inference, AI Researcher can track down the specialized or complex data that old school enrichment can’t find.

An AI assistant that understands the information and doesn’t just scrape it

Not only is Gradient Works AI Researcher incredibly user-friendly, we trained our AI to search, infer, and analyze information like a person rather than just a simple web scraper like Clay.

What can AI Researcher do? It digs through the web to find the missing strategic data you need to determine quota capacity, segmentation, sales planning, and territory carving. It’s like having an army of analysts who never sleep!

Use AI Researcher to fill in your biggest data gaps for the following and more:

Which companies should we disqualify because they are consultants or nonprofits?
What services do our healthcare provider prospects offer patients?
Identify applicant tracking systems used by our prospects.
Which accounts are mis-assigned because of a wrong address?
