What Clay Does

• Clay automatically creates contacts for people you’ve emailed. This includes everyone back to your first email.
• Clay shows your email history with a person on their profile. You’ll see your first email with a person and your most recent email.
• Clay prioritizes people depending on how well you know them. Don’t worry if you have a ton of emails, Clay will prioritize people you know more closely.
• Clay surfaces people you’ve recently emailed for the first time in the Today view. Tap on someone to view their profile. On iOS, swipe to the right to take a note, or swipe to the left to dismiss the reminder.
• Clay tries to filter out newsletters, distribution lists, and spam. It’s hard to have 100% accuracy though, so you can always manually delete these afterwards.

What Clay Doesn’t Do

• Clay can’t see the body of emails (i.e. the actual message). This is so important we address it individually. Clay only asks for permission to import email metadata—the To:, Cc:, Subject:, and date. That permission does not provide any access to the body of the email.
• Clay can’t create, modify, or delete emails. Same as above—literally, can’t. We only request permission to import emails for the purposes of creating contacts and showing moments on each profile.
• Clay doesn’t store your Google credentials like your password. Google only provides a token that Clay uses to pull emails. We never have access to your Google password.
