Contact Classifier

live$0.003/resultContact Discovery

Contact title in, department and seniority out, plus a check on whether the person still holds the role at that company. Runs a deterministic title ladder with no API key needed. Bring your own LLM key only for the small share of titles the rules cannot place.

Use Cases

  • Who buys it. Bought by teams who are paying an LLM to classify job titles and would rather pay a rule table, and by anyone who needs a decision-maker filter that is auditable.
  • Clay enrichment column. Replace two AI columns with one deterministic call that returns department, seniority, and a decision-maker flag.

Features

  • 12 departments and 12 seniority levels
  • seniority_rank 1 to 12, filter with a comparison
  • classification_rule, the named rule that fired
  • 21 flat fields, snake_case, one row per contact
  • Deterministic first, no key and no network
