The real difference: who builds the list
Clay's whole model starts with a list you already have. You import target companies, and Clay fills in the missing emails, headcounts, tech stack, and buying signals from more than a hundred data providers. It is the best tool in the category for that job.
But if you are a freelancer or a small agency selling to restaurants, clinics, law firms, and salons in your city, you do not have a list. Those businesses are not in B2B databases and most are not on LinkedIn. They are on Google Maps, with a phone number, a rating, and — often — no website.
Runvax searches that data in real time, flags the businesses with a gap you can sell against, scores each opportunity, and drafts the first message. It is the step that has to happen before enrichment is even a question.
Questions
Is Runvax a Clay alternative?
For one specific job, yes. If you sell websites, AI automation, or other digital services to local businesses and you want a tool that finds the prospects and drafts the outreach, Runvax replaces the Clay workflow entirely. If you run B2B SaaS sales against a named account list and need deep firmographic enrichment, Clay is the better fit.
What can Clay do that Runvax cannot?
Clay enriches arbitrary company lists from 100+ data providers, runs custom scoring formulas, and integrates with a wide set of CRMs and sequencers. It is a power tool for RevOps teams. Runvax does not import external lists or do waterfall enrichment.
What can Runvax do that Clay cannot?
Runvax builds the prospect list from real-time local business data, flags which businesses have no website or no booking flow, scores the opportunity, and writes a per-business cold email, WhatsApp message, and proposal. Clay assumes you already have the list and the ICP.
Which is cheaper?
Runvax. It has a free plan with no card, and its paid plan is roughly $6/month. Clay also has a free tier, and its paid plans start around $167–$185/month depending on billing term (checked September 2026).
