Lead Capture

Lead Capture lets you build hosted forms that collect leads and tie them to an agent. Every submission is stored in Chatley, can be enriched with call data when it's linked to a call, and can be forwarded to your own systems in real time with Webhooks.

Lead capture flow — a visitor submits a form, Chatley enriches it with call data, then forwards the lead to your CRM or Zapier

Create a lead form

  1. Open your workspace and go to Lead Capture.
  2. Create a new form and give it a name (internal) and a title (shown to visitors).
  3. Attach the agent this form belongs to.
  4. Customise the form's look and copy:
    • Description and button text
    • Success message shown after a visitor submits
    • Theme colour to match your brand

Add custom fields

Beyond the built-in name and phone, you can add your own fields to collect exactly the information you need. Each custom field has:

  • a label (what the visitor sees),
  • a typetext, number, or email,
  • an optional placeholder, and
  • a required toggle.
tip

Keep forms short. Every extra required field lowers completion — ask only for what you'll actually use.

What a submission contains

Each lead submission records the visitor's name and phone, anything you collected in custom fields (under customData), and — when the lead is linked to a call — extra call enrichment:

FieldDescription
summaryA short summary of the call.
transcriptThe full call transcript.
recordingUrlLink to the call recording.
durationSecondsCall length in seconds.
costCall cost.
endedReasonWhy the call ended.

Forward leads automatically

To push each new lead to a CRM, a Zapier/Make automation, or your own API, add a webhook. Chatley sends every submission as an HTTP POST the moment it's captured.

  • Webhooks — set your endpoint URL, test it, and go live.

You can also connect the native Zapier integration from Integrations if you'd rather build Zaps than handle raw webhooks.

Next steps

  • Webhooks — forward captured leads in real time.
  • Agents — configure the agent behind your forms.
