Open-source alternatives to Typeform

Comparison notes

Formbricks is the strongest open-source alternative to Typeform, matching its one-question-at-a-time interface and adding product survey targeting to show surveys to specific user segments based on attributes — a feature Typeform lacks. OhMyForm provides a simpler form builder without Typeform's conversational flow, better positioned as a Google Forms replacement than a Typeform equivalent. Neither alternative currently matches Typeform's extensive logic-jump and branching condition builder for complex multi-path survey logic.

Migration tips

• Export your Typeform question structures manually — there is no direct JSON export format that Formbricks natively imports, so recreation is required.
• Recreate survey logic in Formbricks' condition builder, which covers basic branching but may not support all Typeform logic configurations including complex piping.
• Replace Typeform's embed snippet in your product with Formbricks' JavaScript widget, updating any CSS overrides to match the new embed's class structure.

FAQ

Can I fully replace Typeform with an OSS tool?

Feature parity varies. Most OSS alternatives cover 70-90% of core workflows, but may lack polish, integrations, or specialized features. Pilot the alternative with a subset of your team before fully committing.

What's the cost of self-hosting?

Plan for ~$5-50/month in VPS costs (DigitalOcean, Hetzner, etc.) plus 2-8 hours/month in maintenance. For a team of 20+, self-hosting usually breaks even against SaaS pricing within 6-12 months.

Which alternative should I pick?

Sort by GitHub stars (a proxy for community health), check the last-pushed date (avoid unmaintained projects), and read recent issues to gauge responsiveness.
