A free online form builder

Conversational forms people actually finish.

Describe your form and AI builds it. Then it runs as a conversation that asks again when an answer is thin, and follows up with the people who leave.

Hi! This is a real chatform.

Eight quick questions, under three minutes.

Not another form builder

How is this differentfrom other forms?

Other forms wait to be filled in. chatform asks again, follows up and answers back.

It asks again when an answer is thin.

Other forms record “it was bad” and move on. chatform asks one more question, in plain words, and records the real answer.

Ziang Xiao et al., ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction 27(3), 2020

It follows up with the people who leave.

Other forms lose them. chatform emails them back to the question they stopped on, with their answers kept.

Henry Sauermann et al., Research Policy 42(1), 2013

It answers their questions, too.

Other forms go quiet when someone is unsure. chatform answers from what you gave it, then picks up where they were.

  • A knowledge base it quotes

    Your docs, pages and notes. Not the internet.

  • A goal and a voice

    Like “qualify the lead, then book a demo”.

  • Guardrails

    Topics it won’t discuss, and how it declines.

Questions, choices, required fields, welcome screens and jumps come over, then it follows up when an answer is too thin.

Free. No account needed to try it.

How to switch

  1. 1Paste your public Typeform link.
  2. 2Talk to it as a conversation, right here.

Your original form keeps working. Responses stay where they are, so export them before you switch.

Meet your AI form builder

Describe your form.AI builds it.

You get the questions, the wording, the order and the branching, ready to edit and publish. Then it stays on to ask them.

  • Type what you want. “Onboarding for a design agency” becomes a whole form.

  • Or paste your website. It reads your pages and asks in your own words.

  • Then just ask for changes. “Add a budget question and skip it under 10 people.”

It understands what people type.

Choices stay instant and exact. Free text is read for what it means, and when it isn’t sure, it asks instead of guessing.

Answers go where you work.

A live feed for Google Sheets and Excel, signed webhooks to your own server, an API, and a connector for your AI assistant.

What I would change

  • Most people who leave do it at the budget question. Try making it optional.
  • Pricing comes up in a third of chats. Add your price list to the knowledge base.

Illustrative. Your assistant answers from your own responses.

Partial submissions

Keep every answer.Even before they submit.

Most people who leave a form had already told you something. chatform keeps it, so a half-finished response is still a lead.

  1. 01

    A conversation starts

    Each answer is saved the moment it is given, not when somebody reaches the end.

  2. 02

    Life happens. Answers stay.

    If they close the tab at question six, you still see the first five, marked as partial.

  3. 03

    There is a way back

    Reopening the link offers to pick up where they left off, and a follow-up email can remind them.

Find the right plan

Email, phone and Google verification

Ask people to confirm who they are before they answer: a code by email, a code by SMS, or Google sign-in.

Workspaces and team roles

Keep forms in workspaces and invite your team as admins, editors or viewers.

Your data stays yours

Read, filter and export your responses whenever you like, and delete any of them at any time. Your answers are never used to train an AI model.

Every form is an API.if you want one.

If you have a developer, this bit is for them. If you do not, you will never need any of it. Skip straight to the pricing.

  • Scoped API keys

    sk_live_ keys, hashed at rest, shown once, revocable, last-used tracked.

  • Streamed or synchronous

    SSE for the hosted form. One request and one reply for your backend.

  • An OpenAPI spec you can generate from

    At /openapi.json. Our own web client is generated from it, so it cannot go stale.

  • 4 ways to embed

Good questions

Glad you asked.

Something else on your mind? Ask us
Is it really free?

Yes. The free plan has unlimited submissions, up to 100 forms and 200 AI conversations a month, with no card and no time limit. When the AI conversations run out, your forms keep working and simply ask your questions as written.

How is it different from Typeform or Google Forms?

Those show a page of boxes, or one box per screen. chatform asks your questions as a conversation: it asks again when an answer is thin, answers a respondent's own questions from the docs you give it, and emails the people who leave halfway.

What can I make with it?

Contact and lead forms, intake and onboarding, surveys, feedback and NPS, quizzes, registrations and applications. Start from a sentence, a template or a form you already have.

Can I bring my existing forms?

Yes. Paste a Typeform, Google Forms, Tally, Jotform or Youform link, or any web page with a form on it, and the questions and logic come across.

Will it work on my website?

Yes. Share the link, embed it in a page, add a popup button, or put a QR code on a poster. It works with any site builder that lets you paste a snippet.

Do people need an app or an account to answer?

No. A form opens from a link in any browser, on a phone or a computer. Nobody installs anything or signs up, unless you choose to ask respondents to sign in.

Can I turn the AI off?

Yes. One switch makes a form ask every question exactly as you wrote it, and a choice is always recorded exactly as it was picked.

Where do my answers go?

Into a results page you can search, filter and export to CSV or Excel. They can also go to Google Sheets, a webhook, the API, or Claude and ChatGPT through the connector.

What if I need more?

Pro adds verification, partial submissions, follow-up emails, payments, your own fonts and logo, and removes our branding. Every limit is on the pricing page.
