IntroducingClaude for Waterfall Enrichment.

Your agent can now chain every people and company data source it needs: cheapest first, fall back on a miss, verify before it hands anything back. One wallet, priced per call.

Why funded teams were the only ones running a waterfall, and what changes when your agent builds the chain itself. Every Monid price on screen is the live per-call price, Sep 2 2026.

Give this to your agent

Finding one email
takes four subscriptions.

No single source has everyone. So the lookup gets spread across four vendors, four seats, four contracts, before your agent looks anyone up.

Funded team

Buys all four. Hires the wiring.

Cheapest source first, fall back on a miss. That chain is a waterfall, and it used to cost four contracts and an engineer.

Everyone else

Picks one. Lives with the holes.

One subscription covers one slice. The people it does not have are the people you never reach.

Cheapest paid tier of each vendor, public pricing 2026. Ploid has no public list price and is not in the sum.

Now your agent
builds the chain.

Nothing to learn, nothing to wire. Describe the lookup and Claude picks the order, falls through on a miss, and pays only the layers it touched.

Cheapest first

The chain starts at the lowest per-call price and only climbs when it has to.

hunter /people/find · $0.0048

Falls back on a miss

No match is not a dead end. The query drops to the next source on its own.

no match → ploid → apollo

Verifies before it hands back

A hit is checked before it reaches you. You get a working address, not a guess.

found, verified · handed back

One wallet

Every source bills the same Monid balance. No seats, no contracts, no minimums.

four seats.
Stop wiring them.

$4,179 a year bought you four logins and a weekend of glue code. Claude runs the same waterfall for a fraction of a cent, and only pays the layers it touched.

Clay Alternatives: You Are Buying the Waterfall

Clay Alternatives: You Are Buying the Waterfall

New

Clay's product is not the data, it is the fall-through logic between providers. Once they share a balance, that logic is about twenty lines of code.

People Data Labs, Apollo, ZoomInfo: Which Should You Actually Buy?

Four providers, one honest split: search versus enrich versus contract. What each is genuinely best at, and why the price gap is not what it looks like.

Enriching a List When All You Have Is Email Addresses

Enriching a List When All You Have Is Email Addresses

We enriched four real email addresses and one returned a person. The misses billed nothing. What that changes about how you plan a batch.

Now it needs one line.
