Alternatives to Tally
Notion-style form builder with a generous free tier
Tally ranks #3 of 10 in Form builders, with an Alt Score of 85. It is proprietary, freemium from $29/month and available on the web. 12 of 12 checklist rows are verified against a public source.
Creators, product/marketing teams, HR, and anyone who needs to build forms or surveys without coding — used for feedback collection, lead generation, job applications, registrations, and similar use cases.
A Notion-style, document editor where you type questions and drop in blocks (text, ratings, file uploads, payments, signatures, dates) rather than configuring a rigid form builder. Forms support conditional logic, calculators/scoring, hidden fields and URL parameters, multi-page layouts, and 50+ language translations. Most features, including unlimited forms and submissions, are free; integrations exist for Notion, Google Sheets, Airtable, Slack, Zapier, and others.
You build a form by typing directly on a page and inserting blocks, similar to editing a document, no signup required to start. Once built, you share it via a Tally link, embed, popup, or custom domain, and submissions can be viewed in Tally or synced to connected tools.
