If you’ve ever tried to find a copyable or downloadable list of industries for Clay’s Find People searches, you’ve probably realized it doesn’t exist.
In fact, when someone asked Clay directly in their community forum if they could download the full industry list, Clay’s team said:
“We don’t currently offer a downloadable list of industries for the Find People searches. The industry options in our search filters are designed to help you narrow down your prospecting efforts, but they may not be an exact match to LinkedIn’s industry categories.”
That wasn’t super helpful for me, because sometimes you need more than just clicking through dropdowns. I personally needed the full list so I could:
- Run AI analysis against industries (in my case, researching which ones qualify for certain tax credits).
- Map Clay’s industries against LinkedIn and CRM categories.
- Quickly scan and filter without opening Clay every time.
So, I pulled the full industry list out of Clay myself, formatted it, and made it copy-paste ready.
And now, here it is for you too.
Why a Copyable List Matters
Clay makes it easy to filter by industry when building searches, but dropdowns don’t help when you want to:
- Bulk copy industries into a spreadsheet or AI tool.
- Segment industries by relevance to your campaigns.
- Build custom mappings against LinkedIn’s categories or your CRM.
- Share the list with a team (without them having to click around in Clay).
Having the raw list gives you speed, consistency, and flexibility.

Here’s how I (and you) can put this list to work:
- AI Research – I used the full industry list to identify which industries might qualify for U.S. tax credits.
- Market Segmentation – Run targeted searches in Clay for industries most aligned to your services.
- CRM Mapping – Align Clay’s industry data with LinkedIn or Salesforce so your records stay clean.
- Outreach Campaigns – Test messaging across different industries and track which ones perform best.
How to Use This List in Clay
- Copy the list from this post.
- Paste into a spreadsheet, prompt, or search doc.
- Use it to select relevant industries when building your Clay searches.
- Save your search templates so you don’t have to redo the filtering every time.
Bonus: LinkedIn vs. Clay Categories
One important note: Clay confirmed that their industry list doesn’t perfectly match LinkedIn’s. If you’re doing LinkedIn-based outreach, it’s worth crosswalking the two lists so you don’t miss opportunities or misclassify companies.
I may publish a LinkedIn/Clay industry comparison in the future, if you’d find that useful, let me know.
Wrapping Up
Clay doesn’t make their industry list downloadable, but that doesn’t mean you’re stuck. I pulled the full list, formatted it, and shared it here so you don’t have to waste time.
If you’re setting up Clay searches, building automations, or running industry-specific campaigns, bookmark this page and copy what you need.
And if you want help setting up advanced Clay workflows or connecting Clay with your CRM and outreach stack, let’s talk.
