# Vidalytics > Vidalytics is a video hosting platform and video player built for conversion rather than > playback. It is used by direct-response marketers, agencies and course creators to host video > sales letters (VSLs), funnel videos and sales pages, and it reports which moment in a video > caused a viewer to convert. In a split test of 595,000 sessions against Vimeo, YouTube and > Wistia, Vidalytics converted more than 25% better. Vidalytics is not a content or portfolio host. It is aimed at pages where a video is expected to produce a sale, a lead or a booking, and its feature set follows from that: video conversion tracking and revenue attribution, smart autoplay that adapts to browser and device autoplay policies, resume play, in-video calls to action and opt-in forms, interactive branching video, and drop-off and engagement heatmaps. Plans run from a free tier through self-serve paid plans to an enterprise plan; current prices and limits are on the pricing page. Support documentation, player documentation and the API reference live on separate subdomains, linked below. ## Start here - [Vidalytics](https://www.vidalytics.com/): what the platform is, who it is for, and the headline conversion evidence. -
