Google FormsAbout OhMyForm
OhMyForm is what you reach for when you like Typeform's clean, one-question-at-a-time forms but not the subscription or the fact that every response flows through someone else's servers. It's an open-source form and survey builder you self-host, so the forms — and all the data people submit — stay on infrastructure you control.
You get a builder for creating conversational forms and surveys, a way to share them, and dashboards to view responses and basic analytics, plus data export. Because it's self-hosted and AGPL-3.0 licensed, there are no per-response limits or paywalled features gating what you can collect.
It's a lightweight, privacy-first option rather than a heavyweight enterprise platform. Development has been quiet recently, so it suits people who want a simple, self-hosted Typeform alternative they can run and tweak themselves more than teams needing an actively-shipping commercial product.
What makes it different
Build clean, one-question-at-a-time forms and surveys the way Typeform popularised — without the subscription.
Collect submissions and view responses and basic analytics in a dashboard, then export your data.
Run it on your own server with Docker so every form and response stays under your control.
Because you host it, there are no per-response caps or paywalled fields — collect as much as you need.
