HeyForm

A clean, self-hostable Typeform alternative that nails conversational forms without the $25/month price tag. HeyForm gives you drag-and-drop building, conditional logic, and multi-page flows — the stuff Typeform charges premium for — in an open source package you can brand however you want.

Formbricks is the stronger OSS competitor with in-app survey support and a bigger community. Tally is the popular free-tier option but closed source. Typeform itself remains the polish king for conversational UI, but their free plan caps at 10 submissions/month, which is insulting.

If you're an indie hacker collecting beta signups or running customer surveys, HeyForm gets the job done without subscription anxiety. The self-hosted version is genuinely free, and the cloud plan starts at $8/month — half of Typeform.

The catch: AGPL-3.0 license means if you modify it and serve it to users, your changes must be open sourced. Smaller community than Formbricks, fewer integrations, and no in-app survey support. For simple embedded forms, it's great. For product analytics, look elsewhere.
