Frequently asked questions

How does Sculptor apply and monitor ICP criteria?

You share a list of target companies and define ICP dimensions such as industry, headcount, funding stage, tech stack, and geography. Sculptor assembles a company table, then chains firmographic and technographic enrichments from providers like Ocean.io and HG Insights to generate a numeric ICP fit score per account. Disqualifying signals surface automatically, and qualified accounts sync to HubSpot, Salesforce, or Apollo for ongoing monitoring.

How accurate are Clay's ICP scoring results?

Clay stacks 150+ data providers through waterfall enrichment, and customers report up to 3x higher enrichment rates compared to single-vendor setups. Conflicting firmographic or technographic values are resolved by source priority, so the final ICP fit score reflects the most reliable signal. Providers like HG Insights and Ocean.io fill coverage gaps that any single source would miss, improving overall scoring quality.

Can I apply ICP scoring to a whole list at once?

Yes. Paste a small set of domains to test your criteria, then run a CSV upload or Clay table pipe for larger lists. Sculptor maps each company against up to 10 ICP dimensions in a single pass, stacking enrichments from providers like Ocean.io and HG Insights. Scheduled refreshes keep fit scores current so your CRM always reflects the latest ICP data.

Is it legal to collect B2B company data for ICP scoring?

GDPR allows processing B2B company data under legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f)), but you must document a Legitimate Interest Assessment and honor erasure requests within 30 days. In the US, CCPA now fully covers business contact data after the B2B exemption expired in 2023, with penalties up to $7,988 per intentional violation. Practice data minimization and maintain a suppression list. Always check the rules for your jurisdiction before building ICP lists.
