The best free Typeform alternatives with unlimited responses
Typeform's free plan stops at 10 responses a month. Here are free form builders with no response cap, with each free plan checked on the vendor's own site.
Typeform's free plan allows 10 responses a month, according to its help center. Its Basic plan costs $39 a month, or $28 a month billed yearly, and still caps responses at 100 a month. If you need a form that keeps collecting, there are good free options: Forms (ours), Google Forms, Microsoft Forms, Tally, and open source tools you can host yourself.

Checked on October 19, 2026. "Not stated" means the vendor's page does not say. Google Forms is free with a Google account, but its product page lists no limits, so it is not in the table.
Here is what each does well and where each falls short.
What to look for
- No response cap. A free plan that stops at 10 or 100 responses stops right when your form starts working.
- No account for respondents. People should open a link and answer.
- Your data out. At the least, a CSV export.
- The question types you need. Most surveys need text, multiple choice, checkboxes, ratings and dates. Some also need file uploads, payments or logic that skips questions.
1. OpenApps Forms
Forms is ours, so judge it accordingly. It is free, with no limit on forms, questions or responses, and no sign-up for you or for the people filling it in.
- Question types: short and long text, email, number, date, multiple choice, checkboxes, dropdown, rating, and yes or no.
- Required questions and a custom thank-you message.
- Live results with a summary for each question, and CSV export.
- An endpoint for your website's own forms, so it doubles as a free form backend. See a free form backend for any website.
- A public API, so an AI assistant can build the form and read the results for you.
Where it falls short: no conditional logic, no file uploads, no payments, and no email alert when a response comes in. If you need those, look at the options below.
2. Google Forms
Google Forms is free with a Google account. It has logic, file uploads and a direct link to Google Sheets, and almost everyone has filled one in.
Where it falls short: you need a Google account to build a form, it looks like every other Google Form, and using it as the backend for your own website's form is awkward.
3. Microsoft Forms
Microsoft Forms comes with a Microsoft account, and some features need Microsoft 365. It is a sensible choice if your school or company already runs on Microsoft.
Where it falls short: owners, and often respondents, get pulled into Microsoft accounts.
4. Tally
Tally is a form builder with a generous free plan: its pricing page promises unlimited forms and submissions within its fair use guidelines, with logic, signatures and file uploads included. It feels closer to Typeform than to Google.
5. Open source, self-hosted
Formbricks, OpnForm and LimeSurvey are open source. If you can run your own server, you get full control and no caps at all. The cost is your time keeping it running and up to date.
Free plans with low caps
Typeform stops at 10 responses a month and Jotform at 100 submissions a month across 5 forms. SurveyMonkey's free plan lets you see only a limited number of responses per survey, and tells you the number after you sign up. Jotform's cheapest paid plan, Bronze, costs $39 a month, or $408 a year.
Moving a form from Typeform
- List your Typeform questions and their types.
- In Forms, add a title and recreate each question. Most types map one to one: short text, long text, email, number, date, multiple choice, dropdown, rating, and yes or no.
- Mark the required questions and set your thank-you message.
- Share the new link wherever the old one was.
If your Typeform used logic to skip questions, decide whether to split it into two shorter forms or simply ask everyone every question.
Questions

Yes. OpenApps Forms is free with no limit on forms, questions or responses, and nobody needs an account to build or answer a form. Google Forms is also free if you have a Google account.
How many responses does Typeform's free plan allow?
10 responses a month, for 1 user, according to Typeform's help center on October 19, 2026. Its Basic plan allows 100 responses a month for $39 a month, or $28 a month billed yearly.
Can I export responses from Forms?
Yes. OpenApps Forms exports every response as a CSV file that opens in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers, and it shows a summary for each question as responses arrive.
Does Forms support logic or file uploads?
Not today. OpenApps Forms covers text, email, number, date, multiple choice, checkboxes, dropdown, rating, and yes or no questions, with required questions and a thank-you message. For logic or file uploads, Google Forms is a free option.

Yes. OpenApps Forms has a public API with no key. An assistant can create a form from a list of questions in one call, send you the link, and read the responses later with the owner key it got back.
