How Riddle generates better leads

People are more reluctant to share data these days. This makes getting leads trickier, with traditional methods (like pop-ups) becoming less effective.

But when users engage with Riddle’s interactive content, they’re more likely to share information. And by creating targeted, personalized content, you’ll attract high-quality leads. Lead generation works hand in hand with zero-party data and audience engagement.

Why you should choose zero-party data. Zero-party data is the highest-quality and most reliable data source you can get, outperforming second and third-party data.

Zero-party data is information your users give you directly. When people engage with Riddle’s quizzes and interactive content, they willingly share this with you.

Quiz with lead form showing how Riddle generates high-quality leads

How a quiz funnel works in Riddle

  1. Ask the questions that qualify. A personality quiz maps answers to outcomes with weighted scoring, a scored quiz tests knowledge, a survey collects preferences. Branching logic routes each user to the questions that fit their answers.
  2. Place the form where it converts. A form block goes at any point in any Riddle. Just before the result reaches around 43% opt-in. Built-in fields cover name, email, phone, consent and more, with double opt-in by email or one-time code.
  3. Branch the result. Result branching shows a different result page by total score, block score or answer combination, each with its own CTA. This is how a quiz recommends the right product or content to every user.
  4. Send, tag and segment. Native connectors for Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, Brevo, AWeber, Salesforce and Google Sheets, plus Zapier and webhooks. Leads arrive with their answers, tags and segments. See all integrations →
  5. Follow up automatically. Riddle sends personalized follow-up emails based on the result, with conditional content per outcome and delayed sending. The lead funnel in the dashboard shows views, starts, completions and leads, so you see exactly where people drop off.

Built in minutes, not sprints

  1. Draft it from any article, product page or document. Paste the article URL into the AI Quiz Maker and it drafts questions, answers, and results in seconds, ready to edit. Or start from a branded template your team saved earlier. Teams working in Claude can even build it through the Riddle MCP server, in the same chat where the story is written.
  2. Keep it on-brand without a designer. Every Riddle is white-label on every plan: your fonts, colors, and logo, with a CSS editor for the rest. Save the result as a template so the next quiz starts already branded.
  3. Publish it on any page. Copy the embed code and paste it into your CMS the same way you embed a YouTube video. It works in WordPress (with a dedicated plugin), Webflow, Sitecore, Drupal, and any HTML page.

Insights & guides

  • Where in the quiz should the lead form go?

    Just before the result is the strongest placement: in a recent experiment it reached a 43% opt-in rate, because users have already invested and want their outcome. A form block can go at any point, though, including the start or the end, and Riddle reports 30 to 50% completion rates for in-quiz forms.

    Which CRMs and email tools does Riddle connect to?

    Natively to Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, Brevo, AWeber, Salesforce and Google Sheets. Through Zapier to more than 5,000 apps, and through webhooks to any endpoint, which is how HubSpot is connected. Lead data can bypass Riddle's servers entirely and go straight to your systems.

    What is zero-party data, and how is it different from first-party data?

    Zero-party data is information your users give you directly and knowingly, such as quiz answers, preferences and form fields. First-party data is what you observe, such as page views. Zero-party data is the highest-quality and most reliable source because the user chose to share it, and it feeds straight into segments and personalized content.

    Can Riddle send follow-up emails automatically?

    Yes. Riddle sends personalized emails based on the quiz result directly from the platform, with conditional content per outcome and delayed sending, for example a winner notification at a scheduled time.

    Is lead capture GDPR-compliant?

    Yes. Built-in consent fields, double opt-in by email or one-time code, no third-party tracking cookies, ISO 27001 certification and hosting in Germany and Luxembourg. Amazon's Goodreads team uses Riddle under Amazon's privacy and data security standards.
