Parse.ly

Parse.ly is a content analytics platform for publishers and content teams. It tracks how audiences engage with articles, videos, and other content — reads, time spent, scroll depth, and conversions — and presents it in dashboards built for editors and marketers rather than data analysts. It is designed to answer the question every content team asks: what should we publish more of?

How it works

The platform covers the full content workflow: real-time dashboards for the newsroom, reporting for content performance, and audience insights that show which topics and formats drive subscriptions and loyalty. It includes a content API and integrations with CMS platforms, so metrics can appear where editors already work.

Parse.ly is priced by quote with no public price list and no free plan. It fits publishers, media companies, and large content marketing teams that need to prove content ROI. For small blogs, the cost is hard to justify against free tools such as Google Analytics and Clarity.
