How to find someone's work phone number
Paste your target account list into Sculptor
Drop in your list of target accounts. Sculptor waterfalls through 150+ providers to find a verified work phone for each contact.
Sculptor waterfalls providers to find verified work phones
Sculptor searches Clay's people database for contacts at each account, then chains through Clay's waterfall of data providers in sequence to surface a verified work phone. You only pay credits when a match is found.
Your table: contact name and verified work phone
The finished table has contact name and, for matched rows, a verified work phone number. Push to Outreach, Salesloft, or your sequencer so reps can dial immediately.
Why Clay for finding someone's work phone
Multi-provider waterfall for maximum phone coverage
Get a verified work phone for matched contacts across your account list. Clay waterfalls through 150+ providers in sequence, charging credits only when a provider returns a hit.
Built-in phone validation flags bad numbers
Each matched number runs through Trestle verification, returning a line type, activity score, and name match grade so landlines and disconnected numbers never reach your reps.
Credits only on a match, never wasted
Clay's waterfall stops the moment a provider returns a valid work phone, so you never pay for empty lookups. A single provider typically covers 30-50% of a list; the waterfall routinely triples that.
Push verified numbers straight to your sequencer
Matched rows with verified work phones push directly to Outreach, Salesloft, or HubSpot in minutes, so reps can start dialing without any manual CSV exports.
When one provider doesn’t have it, Clay automatically checks the next one. It really helps our inbound and outbound motions because we can leverage the best source of data. I’ve never seen a tool that was so easy to do this process.
Frequently asked questions
How does Sculptor find someone's work phone?
Sculptor takes a company name or job title, builds a table of matching professionals, then runs Clay's waterfall enrichment across five or more contact-data providers in sequence. Each provider is queried one after another, and the waterfall stops as soon as a verified work phone is confirmed. Before the number reaches your table, native integrations like Trestle and SureConnect validate it so you only get dialable contacts.
How accurate are the work phone numbers Clay returns?
A single data provider typically covers around 30% of contacts. Clay's waterfall pushes that to roughly 80% or higher by querying multiple sources in sequence. Clay tested 9,806 numbers across 10 B2B phone data providers and found that 23% qualified as verified, high-propensity (P1) numbers. Adding Trestle and SureConnect verification before export filters out disconnected or low-quality numbers so your connect rates stay high.
Can I find work phones for a whole list at once?
Yes. Paste a list of company names or job titles directly into Sculptor, or upload a CSV to start with your own data. Clay enriches every row through the phone waterfall in parallel, verifies results, and outputs a complete table of names and work phones. Push the finished list to HubSpot, Salesforce, or Pipedrive in one click, or export as a CSV for your outbound sequences.
Is it legal to cold call work phone numbers I find?
In the U.S., the TCPA permits live B2B calls to corporate landlines but requires prior express consent for autodialed or prerecorded calls to wireless numbers, with fines of $500 to $1,500 per violation. The FTC's Telemarketing Sales Rule requires scrubbing against the National Do Not Call Registry every 31 days. In the EU, GDPR Article 6(1)(f) allows processing under legitimate interest, but you must document a balancing test.
Always check the rules for your jurisdiction and honor opt-out requests before dialing.
