demandDrive and Clay: A New Partnership for B2B Success

On May 5, 2026, demandDrive, a prominent player in outsourced sales and marketing for B2B companies, unveiled its latest milestone: joining Clay's Solutions Partner Program as an official Clay Studio Partner. This collaboration signifies a strategic move to leverage Clay’s robust platform capabilities while integrating demandDrive’s extensive expertise in sales execution into the mix.

The Rise of Clay

Clay has recently made headlines, achieving a valuation of $5 billion and crossing the remarkable $100 million Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) milestone. The platform is renowned for transforming the approach that modern go-to-market (GTM) teams employ to source data, automate research, and execute outreach initiatives at scale. With partnerships already established with tech giants like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Canva, Clay provides a powerful arsenal combining over 150 data providers, AI-enhanced research, and workflow automation that empowers revenue teams to personalize their prospecting efforts effectively.

Powering Growth Through Partnership

demandDrive has been instrumental in harnessing the power of Clay for its own operations since 2024 when Noah Burkholz, VP of RevOps GTM Strategy, tested Clay's functionalities within prospecting workflows. What began as a modest experiment yielded significant rewards; the manufacturing division saw an immediate boost in efficiency as automated research was deployed. This success prompted demandDrive to integrate Clay into further initiatives across their organization. As of early 2026, the use of Clay has generated millions in ROI, highlighting the effectiveness of their collaboration.

Expertise Meets Implementation

Lindsay Frey, Co-Founder and CEO of demandDrive, expresses confidence in their partnership with Clay, stating they share the same goals and priorities. This relationship extends beyond mere vendor interactions to a cohesive partnership aimed at achieving measurable business outcomes. demandDrive's wealth of experience across various sectors – from SaaS to cybersecurity and manufacturing – allows them to bring the necessary strategic context that maximizes the effectiveness of Clay workflows into revenue-generating systems.
