Dual-Credit System
CLAIR uses two separate credit types: Dossier Credits (primary) and Conversation Credits (supplementary). This reinforces the dossier-first product hierarchy.
Dossier Credits
Primary Currency
Each dossier credit allows you to generate one comprehensive match intelligence report. This is the core value proposition of CLAIR.
