Ruler Analytics: what it is, how it works & who it's for

Marketing attribution with call, form and chat tracking that links leads to revenue

Updated · Pricing checked October 2026

What is Ruler Analytics?

Ruler Analytics is a marketing attribution platform that tracks leads from calls, forms and live chats and connects them to the revenue they eventually generate. It records which marketing channels and campaigns each visitor came through, passes that data to your CRM with the lead, then pulls closed revenue back and credits the touchpoints that influenced the sale. This closes the gap between marketing reports and sales results.

Ruler combines multi-touch and data-driven attribution, impression attribution for channels without clicks, and marketing mix modeling on its higher tier. It is built for lead generation businesses, agencies and service companies where many sales start with a phone call or form rather than an online checkout. The company lists its address in Liverpool, UK, and prices in pounds, euros and dollars.

How does Ruler Analytics work?

  1. Add the tracking code

    You install Ruler's script on your website so it can record each visitor's source, campaign and pages across sessions.

  2. Capture leads from every channel

    Ruler tracks form fills, inbound calls and live chats and ties each lead to the visitor's earlier marketing touchpoints.

  3. Pass data to your CRM

    Lead and attribution data flows into your CRM so sales can see where each lead came from.

  4. Send revenue back

    When deals close, Ruler pulls revenue from the CRM and credits it to the channels and campaigns that influenced the sale, including in ad platforms.

  5. Plan budgets

    On the Advanced plan, marketing mix modeling and a budget scenario planner forecast diminishing returns so you can decide where extra spend will pay off.

No. Ruler Analytics does not list a free plan or free trial on its pricing page. Plans start at £299 per month, about $400, for sites with up to 10,000 monthly visits, and rise with traffic. Annual deals save 10%, and the listed prices are indicative because integrations and data needs can change the quote.

What is Ruler Analytics used for?

Ruler Analytics is used to connect marketing activity to revenue. It tracks leads from calls, forms and live chat, attributes them to the channels and campaigns that drove them, passes that data to your CRM and then credits closed revenue back to marketing. Teams use it to prove ROI and adjust budgets. It suits businesses where leads close offline through a sales team.

Does Ruler Analytics do call tracking?

Yes. Call tracking is a core part of Ruler Analytics. It tracks inbound calls, lets you listen to recordings and links each call to the visitor's earlier marketing touchpoints. Phone leads then flow to your CRM, and revenue from those calls is credited back to the right channels. This makes it useful for businesses where many valuable sales start on the phone.

Ruler Analytics vs CallRail: what's the difference?

CallRail is mainly a call tracking and conversation analytics tool often used by local businesses and agencies. Ruler Analytics tracks calls too, but its focus is full revenue attribution across calls, forms and chat, with CRM revenue sync, multi-touch models and marketing mix modeling on higher plans.

Ruler Analytics starts at £299 per month for up to 10,000 visits, then £499 for up to 50,000 visits, £999 for up to 100,000 and £1,499 for Advanced. Dollar prices run from $400 to $2,000 per month. Annual contracts reduce these rates by about 10%.
