If you’re in the business of selling or generating leads, you know capturing and qualifying them is just the start.
The real challenge? Validating and distributing those leads to your buyers or clients—and doing it instantly.
When it comes to real-time lead routing and distribution, you’ve got a few options:
- Manually handle it all (spoiler: this won’t scale or save your sanity).
- Piece together tools like Zapier and webhooks (easy to break, frustrating to fix).
- Automate the process with lead distribution software.
This is where LeadByte comes in.
In today’s post, I’ll break down what LeadByte is and how to use it to distribute leads after capturing them with LeadCapture.io.

What’s LeadByte?
LeadByte is a lead distribution software established in 2012, so it has been around for awhile.
It’s a powerful tool that can automate your lead routing process, helping you save time and increase profit.
LeadByte provides a complete solution for managing and assigning your leads efficiently and precisely to buyers.
If you’re a LeadCapture.io user, then here’s a simple way to think about it:
LeadCapture.io helps you with the first part of the lead capture process — capturing and qualifying your leads in a compliant way before you pass them to your CRM or distribution tool.
LeadByte helps you do everything after you’ve captured the lead — from further validation to lead assignment, routing, and even billing.
Why use LeadByte?
LeadByte is for lead sellers, buyers, and brokers who want to shorten and improve their processes of sharing and acquiring leads.
- Sellers. It ensures that leads are routed to the right client based on specific criteria.
- Buyers. It guarantees they receive high-quality leads with a great chance of converting.
- Brokers. It helps make lead trading and networking easier and faster.
Since this topic concerns the distribution process, let me show you how it works.
Let’s say you’re capturing solar leads.
First, you have to capture prospects and get their details through forms. You might create a multi-step form like this to avoid overwhelming your prospects with questions.
After you’ve captured the lead, you’ve got to direct them to the appropriate buyer or client. This can depend on a certain requirement, rule, or criteria, such as the type of service they need, their location, the size of their property, or other factors.
If you do this on your own, you’ll have to manually classify all your captured leads, check each one, and then pick the buyer you think is the best match. This process is time-consuming.
Another option is to hire a developer to create a lead distribution system for you. However, this can be pricey and requires monitoring and updates.
With LeadByte, all these tasks are automated. LeadByte routes and distributes leads to the appropriate buyer right after someone submits your lead form.
That’s money and time saved!
