Launches and social
Credit launches, communities and social posts with the customers they brought
A launch day brings a traffic spike and a feeling. Joinsight turns it into a number: the customers whose first visit came from that community or post, and the MRR they pay a month later. Communities are recognized from the referrer, and the link builder tags the links that apps strip.
No card required. The trial clock starts when your first revenue source connects.
Why it's hard to answer today
- Instagram, TikTok and most mobile apps strip the referrer, so their visitors show up as direct.
- Launch traffic is easy to see. The customers who sign up days later from that launch are not.
- Engagement numbers on the platform say nothing about revenue.

How Joinsight answers it
Communities recognized by name
Visits from Hacker News, Product Hunt, Indie Hackers, Reddit, X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky, YouTube and others are classified from the referrer, with UTM tags taking priority. Links clicked in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude or Gemini count as AI search.
Tagged links for the rest
The link builder creates tagged links for bio links, stories and posts, so app traffic is credited to the right channel instead of direct.
Revenue by channel
Content & channels shows signups, paying customers and new MRR per channel and network, measured from each customer's first touch.
A ping when someone pays
Get a message in Slack or Discord with the amount, the page and the channel of each new customer. Never their email.
What you connect
Good to know
- First touch wins. Someone who first read your blog in March and bought after your launch in May is credited to the blog post.
- Post-level Instagram revenue is in beta and needs Meta's approval before it is generally available.
- Only visitors who consented to tracking, or who signed up on the page they landed on, can be attributed.
