Typeform Alternative: Meet Formly

Looking for a Typeform alternative without response caps, per-feature upsells, or a one-question-at-a-time editor? Formly is an AI-powered form builder: describe the form you need in plain language, get a complete draft in seconds, and publish it on one flat-rate plan with unlimited forms and submissions.

Why Formly?

1. AI Builds the First Draft

Typeform makes you assemble forms question by question. Formly starts from the outcome:

Describe what you need: a survey, lead form, application, intake flow, or quiz.
Review the AI-generated draft with the right pages, questions, and field types.
Publish and share with a direct link, an embed code, or a popup on your website.

You get polished, fully functional forms in minutes, not hours, and every draft opens in a full editor, so you can change anything.

2. Your AI Agent Can Run It for You

Formly is agentic: it ships an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and a public REST API, so AI agents like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Codex can create, edit, publish, and read your forms directly from chat. Typeform has nothing comparable. See the developer docs or our MCP guide.

3. Unlimited Submissions, One Flat Price

Typeform meters responses on every plan. Run a successful campaign and you hit your monthly cap or pay for a higher tier. Formly has one plan with no per-response metering:

Unlimited forms and unlimited submissions.
Pro is $29/month, or $24/month billed annually. Cancel anytime.
White-labeling, custom domains, AI generation, agent/API access, file uploads, and team collaboration are all included, with no tier-hopping.

4. Powerful Building Tools

Answer Piping: Personalize follow-up questions based on previous responses.
Multi-Page Forms: Organize lengthy questionnaires into focused steps, or mimic Typeform's one-question-per-page style if you prefer it.
Conditional Logic: Show questions only when they're relevant.
File Uploads & Signatures: Collect documents and sign-offs directly.
Partial Submissions: Capture incomplete responses so you never miss important data.
Real-Time Email Notifications and form analytics.

5. Private by Default

Formly is hosted in Europe and GDPR compliant. We don't use cookies or track your respondents, which is a real consideration if your audience is privacy-conscious.
