Learn More About Your Friends Through AI

If you have thousands of connections, whether it be from LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook or your exploding Email inbox, there are ways to help you ensure you reconnect and stay in touch with those that mean so much to you.

From friends, personal connections and professional colleagues, we are going to briefly dive into the Clay AI personal CRM tool.

Why Would I Need This?

You have a lot of people in your life, you’re incredibly social and there are probably people you haven’t heard from in years because life moves on, people have kids, they find new things in life and sometimes they just kind of float away.

Clay AI pulls everyone together into one app which gives you AI-driven reminders as to what is going on in everyone’s lives.

Imagine building an entire database that is driven by ChatGPT. You can pose questions, discover career changes, life changes and any other information without having to do it manually.

The aim is to build stronger relationships with those in your life.

The Clay Nexus

The Nexus is the standout beta feature of Clay AI, and it allows you to directly ask questions to your database of contacts about anything, literally.

Consider asking:

🎂 When someone’s birthday is, and how old they are.

🏢 Who works in a particular job field, and their background.

🤲 Who a person is before meeting them in person, any personal traits or even a specific gift they may like.

🗣️ When did I last speak to this person, and what was it about?

As all AI tools, the more information that you can give it, the stronger the responses. However, the automated updates are also a significant part of this.

Each day there will be a pop-up which gives a list of potential people you can consider getting back in contact with.

Clay can help you write a reconnection email and message which is custom built for that person based on your history with them.

Accessing Clay AI and The Next Steps

Clay AI has a pretty strong Free Tier which gives you access to connecting your various databases, whether it be LinkedIn, Facebook, iOS contacts or even your Gmail contacts.

I think for most cases this would be enough to start seeing the vast amount of information it can scrape from your contacts. You’ll have to allow access to your personal accounts in order for Clay to begin pulling the strings together.

Once it’s all done, you’ll be able to immediately start asking the tool and assessing how long it may have been since you have been in contact with someone.
