Model Selection & Credits
We offer the best AI models on the market, with the additional possibility to leverage Claro’s proprietary model that also generates confidence scores and citations.
Model Pricing
Task pricing varies based on the AI model used.
Classification
Automatically categorize and tag your data with consistent labels.
How it works: Compares each row against your predefined categories or asks AI to suggest classifications based on patterns in your data.
✅ Perfect for:
- Product taxonomy: “Electronics → Laptops → Gaming Laptops”
- Customer support: Route tickets to Bug/Feature/Billing teams
- Content moderation: Flag positive/neutral/negative sentiment
- Lead scoring: Qualify prospects as hot/warm/cold
⚠️ Limitations:
- Works best with ≤50 categories for accuracy
- Very nuanced distinctions may need human review
💡 Optimization tips:
- Start with 10-20 categories, expand gradually
- Provide 2-3 examples per category
- Adjust confidence threshold in settings (default: 60)
Generation
Create or rewrite text content tailored to your specifications.
How it works: Uses advanced language models to generate new content based on your prompts and existing data.
✅ Perfect for:
- SEO content: Product descriptions from specifications
- Sales outreach: Personalized emails from prospect data
- Marketing copy: Social media posts from product features
- Documentation: Summaries from technical specifications
⚠️ Limitations:
- Avoid for legal documents or contracts
- May require human review for brand voice consistency
💡 Optimization tips:
- Specify exact length: “Write exactly 150 characters.”
- Include brand voice guidelines in the Knowledge Base
- Use temperature settings for creativity vs. consistency
Web Enrichment
Research live information from across the web to enhance your data.
How it works: Searches the web for relevant information, extracts key details, and provides citations for verification.
✅ Perfect for:
- Competitive intelligence: Pricing, features, positioning
- Company research: Funding, employees, recent news
- Product validation: Reviews, specifications, availability
- Contact enrichment: Social profiles, company details
⚠️ Limitations:
- Cannot access paywalled or private content
- Results depend on publicly available information
- It may be slower due to web scraping
💡 Optimization tips:
- Keep prompts specific and focused
- Always request citations for traceability
- Best results with well-known entities/brands
Geolocation Enrichment
Transform addresses into rich geographic data and nearby points of interest.
How it works: Converts addresses to coordinates and optionally finds surrounding businesses, amenities, or services.
✅ Perfect for:
- Store locators: Add coordinates and nearby competitors
- Customer segmentation: Urban vs. rural classification
- Logistics optimization: Route planning and territory mapping
- Market analysis: Demographics and local business density
⚠️ Limitations:
- Less accurate for rural or remote locations
- P.O. boxes cannot be geocoded
💡 Optimization tips:
- Use tight radius (1-2km) in urban areas
- Chain with classification for location types
- Validate important addresses manually
File Extraction
Extract structured data from PDFs, invoices, forms, and documents.
How it works: AI-powered document parser that identifies and extracts specific fields without templates.
✅ Perfect for:
- Invoice processing: Vendor, amount, due date, line items
- Form digitization: Applications, surveys, registrations
- Compliance documents: Safety data sheets, certifications
- Contract analysis: Key terms, dates, parties
⚠️ Limitations:
- Works best with standard document layouts
- Handwritten content needs Advanced OCR instead
💡 Optimization tips:
- Specify the exact fields you need in the prompt
- Use consistent file naming for batch processing
- Store document templates in the Knowledge Base
Advanced OCR - on request (4 credits)
Extract text from low-quality, handwritten, or complex visual documents.
How it works: Vision-AI pipeline optimized for challenging documents that standard OCR cannot handle.
✅ Perfect for:
- Handwritten forms: Applications, surveys, notes
- Damaged documents: Faded receipts, torn papers
- Skewed scans: Photos of documents, angled captures
- Complex layouts: Multi-column, mixed media
⚠️ Limitations:
- Most expensive option (8 credits)
- Processing time is longer than other tasks
- Very complex layouts may need preprocessing
💡 Optimization tips:
- Try File Extraction first for standard documents
- Improve image quality when possible
- Break complex documents into sections
Setting Up AI Tasks
Writing Effective Prompts:
- Reference other columns with @column_name syntax: “Based on @company_name and @industry, write a personalized cold email introduction”
- Be specific about format and length: “Classify @product_title into exactly one category: Electronics, Clothing, Home, Books, or Other”
- Include examples when helpful: “Extract the total amount from @invoice_file. Return only the number like: 1,234.56”
Using Knowledge Bases: Attach relevant documents to improve accuracy:
- Product manuals for technical specifications
- Brand guidelines for a consistent voice
- Policy documents for compliance checks
- Industry standards for classification
Best practices:
- Keep Knowledge Bases focused and relevant
- Update documents regularly
- Use descriptive names for easy selection
Model Selection Tips:
- Claro Default: Best value with confidence scoring and citations included
- Other models: Excellent for specialized use cases with variable pricing
