Find YouTube creators with Clay MCP
Use EmbedSocial's YouTube creator discovery agent to go from a topic search to an enriched creator list in one pass.
One connection. Runs on your live EmbedSocial data.
What does it do?
Connect EmbedSocial with Claude or ChatGPT and Clay to create an agent that finds YouTube creators talking about a specific topic or keyword, then sends them to Clay for enrichment with contact and company details. The agent handles both the discovery and the enrichment step, so you get a usable outreach list rather than just a list of channel names.
Useful for
- Scouting creators by topic: find who's already covering your space on YouTube;
- Skipping manual profile research: let Clay fill in contact details instead of searching one by one;
- Building outreach-ready lists faster: go from search to enriched list in a single workflow.

Real-world use case
Imagine you want to find creators talking about AI website builders and get their contact details in one step. Instead of searching and enriching separately, you ask Claude or ChatGPT:
Find YouTube creators talking about AI website builders and enrich them in Clay.
Your AI tool finds the relevant creators through EmbedSocial and sends them to Clay, which returns the list enriched with contact information.
Prefer to build this into your own app instead of running it from a prompt? The same posts, mentions, reviews and widget analytics are available through the social media API.
