Clay requires 30,000 TPM for "Content generation" columns and 450,000 TPM for Claygent, which Tier 1's basic models don't support. However, if you have access to higher TPM models like GPT-4o-mini (200,000-400,000 TPM) in your OpenAI dashboard, use those instead - they're automatically available without needing to request access. While waiting for Tier 2 upgrade, you can also process data in smaller batches (around 50 rows at a time) and use conditional runs to limit which rows get enriched. Alternative workarounds include connecting a higher tier OpenAI account or using another verified OpenAI account temporarily.
