01

Describe your ecommerce target market

Add your target vertical or market, such as direct-to-consumer apparel or pet-supply brands. Sculptor scans Clay's company database for matching ecommerce companies.

02

Sculptor builds a filtered ecommerce company list

Sculptor assembles a list filtered by industry, headcount, tech stack, and location, then waterfalls through 150+ providers to find a verified email for the title you specified. Matched rows get the enriched contact.

03

Get company names and verified contact emails

The finished table has company name and, for matched rows, a verified contact email. Export to CSV or push to your outbound tool.

Frequently asked questions

How does Sculptor find ecommerce companies?

Sculptor searches multiple company databases by niche keyword, not just broad industry category, to surface ecommerce companies that match your target market. It then runs a Work Email waterfall across 150+ data providers in sequence to locate a verified Head of Marketing email for each company, stopping as soon as a valid match is found. Store Leads enrichment adds employee count and revenue estimates to each result.

How accurate is the ecommerce company and email data?

Clay's waterfall enrichment routinely triples email coverage compared to single-provider lookups, lifting coverage rates from roughly 20% to as high as 80%. The underlying ecommerce company data draws from databases covering 13M+ active stores across 400+ platforms. AI filters also remove companies that fall outside your ICP before rows are returned, so you only pay for relevant matches.

Can I find ecommerce companies in bulk for a whole list?

Yes. Paste multiple niches or market segments into a Clay table, upload them via CSV, or pipe them from an existing table to generate ecommerce company lists at scale. Each row returns company name and Head of Marketing email. Push the full list directly to HubSpot or Salesforce, or export as a CSV to feed your outbound sequence tool.

Is it legal to collect ecommerce company data for outreach?

CAN-SPAM (US) permits B2B commercial email without prior opt-in as long as you include a working opt-out link, a valid physical address, and truthful sender information. GDPR (EU/UK) allows processing business contact data under "legitimate interest" for direct marketing, provided the outreach is relevant and does not override the recipient's rights. CASL (Canada) has stricter consent requirements for commercial messages.

Regulations vary by jurisdiction and change frequently, so always check the rules that apply to your recipients before sending outreach.
