Your Typeform tells you who submitted

Without the LeadSources integration, every form submission lands in your Typeform dashboard looking identical, whether it came from a $5,000 paid campaign or an organic search. Without attribution, you can’t tell the difference.

Before LeadSources

The Attribution Black Box

Your Typeform may be collecting leads successfully, but without source tracking, you won't know which campaigns brought them in.

  • Unknown lead sources: All submissions look the same in Typeform
  • Wasted ad spend: Can't identify which campaigns actually convert
  • Missing touchpoints: No visibility into the customer journey before conversion
  • Poor optimization: Making budget decisions based on incomplete data

With LeadSources

Complete Attribution Clarity

Capture every Typeform submission with detailed source attribution and customer journey insights.

  • Precise source tracking: Know exactly which channel, ad, device (and more) drove each lead
  • Optimized campaigns: Double down on high-converting channels, pause low performers
  • Full customer journeys: See every touchpoint that influenced the conversion decision
  • Data-driven growth: Scale winning campaigns with confidence and proven ROI
   

Why Typeform Needs a Different Kind of Integration

Most form-tracking tools rely on hidden fields, a piece of code injected into the form that quietly records the visitor’s source. Typeform’s one-question-at-a-time format doesn’t take that approach the same way standard forms do.

Typeform native tracking vs. LeadSources

Typeform gives you built-in analytics and hidden fields, but neither was designed to attribute leads back to the campaigns that generated them. Here is how the two compare for tracking the source of your leads in Typeform.
Capability Typeform native / hidden fields LeadSources
Automatic channel & source attribution
Multi-session journey (first click to submit)
Works on hosted Typeform URLs (no website) LIMITED
Survives ad blockers & privacy restrictions
11 enrichment data points per lead
Auto-sync attribution to your CRM

FAQ

Does leadsources change how my typeform looks or works?

No. LeadSources adds attribution tracking in the background without changing your form’s design, questions, or user experience. Respondents see exactly the same Typeform they always did.
Every submission is enriched with 11 data points: channel, source, campaign, term, content, entry page, full page path, device type, operating system, browser, and the complete multi-session journey. All of this is synced to your CRM automatically alongside the form response.
Yes. LeadPath tracks every session across multiple visits, regardless of how many days pass between them. You see the complete journey from first touch to final Typeform submission.
Most teams are tracking their first lead within 2 minutes. You create an account, connect your Typeform through our native integration, and attribution data starts flowing immediately. No technical skills or developer involvement required.

UTM parameters are recommended for paid campaigns and give you the most precise attribution. However, LeadSources also captures organic sources (e.g. Google, ChatGPT, Instagram), direct traffic, and referral channels even without UTMs, so you’re never left with a complete blank on untagged traffic.

LeadSources uses first-party tracking methods that are not affected by most ad blockers or browser privacy restrictions, giving you more complete data than third-party tracking pixels.
