switch.monster does call tracking and marketing attribution: it shows a different phone number depending on which channel brought the visitor (Google Ads, PPC, SEO, direct...), letting you tie an inbound call back to the campaign that generated it. That's the exact same category as ResponseTap, but with a free positioning that changes the math for smaller teams.
Features cover dynamic number insertion, call routing (hunt groups, IVR), recording and reporting. For an agency or e-commerce business that just wants to know which campaigns generate calls without paying for a dedicated subscription, it's a serious alternative to historically paid tools like ResponseTap or CallRail.
