HeyForm

Open-source form builder for conversational forms, surveys and quizzes that can be embedded in a website.

HeyForm is a form builder for conversational forms, surveys and quizzes. Forms are built in a web app, and each one is shared as a code snippet that embeds it in a website as a standard block, a modal, a corner popup or a full-page form. The homepage describes it as an alternative to Typeform. A submission can also be sent to a webhook as a JSON POST request.

The self-hosted setup runs the server beside MongoDB and KeyDB in a Docker Compose stack, and the hosted version at my.heyform.net is run by the company behind the project, EarlyBird, Inc.

Worth knowing

The license is AGPL-3.0, and the license page asks a commercial fork to publish its modifications, to link to the original project and to link to the fork’s own repository. The hosted service is the company’s own product and its plans are not part of the open-source software.
