Attribution is broken

Typeform excels at creating engaging forms, but capturing reliable UTM parameters for attribution is still a persistent challenge for marketers. Typeform can read UTMs from the URL, yet it only sees them when those parameters are present on the exact page where the form is loaded, which means multi-page journeys or embedded forms often drop attribution entirely. In practice, marketers end up seeing UTMs on only a small fraction of responses, while most submissions arrive with blank or partial tracking fields because visitors clicked around the site before converting.

The result is incomplete lead insights and a broken link between campaigns and the Typeform submissions they generate. Madlitics solves this by automatically enriching each Typeform response with persistent, first-touch attribution data—channel, source, campaign, and more—without manual scripts or complex hidden-field workarounds. Instead of wrestling with brittle tracking setups, you get clean, consistent attribution on every submission that’s ready to flow straight into your CRM and reporting stack.

Set up UTM & attribution tracking in Tyepform

Accurate marketing attribution starts with capturing where leads come from. Madlitics works with HubSpot to automatically capture UTM parameters, channel data, and first-touch attribution, then writes it into every form submission for your reporting workflows.
