Clay’s $115M Series D Shows AI GTM Infrastructure Becoming Premium SaaS
The $7.1B valuation, after ARR reportedly tripled to $100M, makes Clay a useful map for the next SaaS category fight.

- Watch for a clear internal owner, such as a GTM engineer, before betting on deep platform adoption.
- Evaluate agent features by trust, governance, and data quality, not just autonomy claims.
