Clay

Enrich social leads with Clay tables

The Buska Clay integration pushes every social buying signal into your Clay table via webhook, then runs your enrichment waterfall automatically across Clay's 50+ data providers (Apollo, Clearbit, Hunter, ZoomInfo, Snov.io, Cognism, Lusha, and more). The flow: Buska detects the buying signal on Reddit, Twitter / X, LinkedIn, Hacker News, Quora, YouTube, or any of the 30+ platforms we monitor → Clay enriches with work email, direct phone, company data, tech stack, funding stage, and org chart → fully qualified lead lands in your CRM ready for outreach. Setup takes 5 minutes. The Buska Clay integration is included on every plan starting at $49 per month, and Clay plans start at $149 per month for 2,500 credits.

How to set up Buska + Clay

1

Create a Clay webhook

In your Clay table, add a Webhook source from the Sources menu. Clay generates a unique webhook URL for that table. The Webhook source accepts JSON payloads with arbitrary schema and auto-detects fields, so you do not need to predefine columns.

Connect in Buska

Paste the Clay webhook URL in Buska Settings > Integrations > Webhook. The connection is instant. Buska signs every webhook with HMAC-SHA256 for authenticity verification. Clay receives the payload and creates a new row per buying signal detected.

Map your columns

Clay auto-detects incoming fields from the first Buska webhook: `authorName`, `postContent`, `platform`, `intentScore`, `keywordMatch`, `postUrl`. Map them to your Clay table columns (or accept the auto-mapping). The whole step takes under 2 minutes.

Real use cases with Clay

Full enrichment pipeline

Social signal detected by BuskaClay finds the person's work email, phone, company, title, revenue, tech stack, and funding stage → Lead enters your CRM fully enriched and scored. Typical hit rate on work email enrichment runs 65 to 85% depending on platform. End-to-end time: under 3 minutes.

AI lead scoring

Use Clay AI columns to score leads based on both social intent (from Buska, 0 to 100) and firmographic data (from Clay's enrichment). Get a composite score that is more accurate than either alone. Top-decile composite scores convert to qualified meeting at 15 to 25%, vs 5 to 10% for Buska-only or Clay-only filters.

Personalized first-line generation

Use Clay AI columns with a prompt that takes both the Buska social post + the enriched company context + the prospect's LinkedIn bio and generates a 3-sentence personalized opener for cold email. Reply rates climb from 2 to 5% baseline to 12 to 20% with Clay AI-generated openers.

Multi-source attribution

Clay can combine Buska social signals with other sources (your website forms, G2 page views, ad clicks) for a unified prospect record. The enriched lead lands in your CRM with the full multi-touch journey tagged for attribution reporting.

Frequently asked questions about Buska + Clay

Can I use Clay's AI features with Buska data?

How fast does Clay enrich a Buska lead?
