Attribution

This article explains how Attribution connects AI-driven discovery to conversions, pipeline, and revenue by tracking outcomes from users who arrive via AI-generated answers.

Attribution shows how AI-driven discovery translates into real business outcomes on your website.

AI platforms increasingly influence how users discover, evaluate, and choose brands. However, traditional analytics tools struggle to connect AI-generated answers to downstream actions such as demo requests, signups, or purchases. As a result, marketing teams often lack visibility into the true impact of AI search on pipeline and revenue.

Attribution in Limy closes this gap by linking AI-originated sessions to on-site conversions. It allows marketing teams to understand not only where they appear in AI-generated answers, but which AI prompts and conversations are driving measurable value.

What Attribution Shows

Once configured, Attribution allows you to:

  • Define what a conversion means for your business

  • Track conversions that originate from AI-driven website sessions

  • Assign optional values to conversions (e.g. lead value, revenue, pipeline contribution)

  • Connect AI prompts to downstream outcomes such as:

  • Demo requests

  • Trial signups

  • Contact form submissions

  • Purchases

This enables teams to move from visibility metrics to performance measurement, making AI search a measurable growth channel.

Users arriving from AI-generated answers are often higher intent because AI systems synthesize information, compare options, and surface recommendations before the user clicks through. As a result, AI-driven visitors tend to be further along in the decision process than traditional search users, making attribution especially valuable for understanding real business impact from AI discovery.
