We have analytics on the frontend but zero visibility into what happens in our Rails controllers, Sidekiq jobs, and Action Mailer callbacks. Half the user journey is invisible.

Sound familiar?
Ruby on Rails applications have a rich server-side layer that frontend analytics tools completely miss. User authentication, payment processing, email sends, background job execution, API responses - all of these critical events happen in your Rails backend. If your analytics only cover the browser, you are seeing less than half of the user experience.
KISSmetrics provides a Ruby gem built specifically for Rails. Add it to your Gemfile, configure your API key, and start tracking events from controllers, models, Active Job workers, and Action Mailer callbacks. Every server-side event is attributed to the same person your frontend JavaScript identifies, creating a unified timeline that spans the full stack.
With KISSmetrics on your Rails backend, you can track the events that matter most: successful payments processed in your billing controller, feature flags evaluated in your middleware, emails delivered via Action Mailer, and data processed in Sidekiq jobs. Your product team gets complete behavioral data without your engineers instrumenting everything on the frontend.

“We discovered that 30% of our trial-to-paid conversions involved a Sidekiq job that sent a perfectly timed email. Without server-side tracking, we would have attributed that to the frontend CTA and never optimized the email.”
