The report card
Best for forms that feed workflows, PDFs and portals
Formaloo builds forms, surveys and portals with workflows, PDFs and payments, and its free plan has unlimited forms and submissions. It has 1 team seat on Free, extra seats cost $9 each, and its branding comes off only on Business.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Pro is $19 a month billed yearly, inside the ordinary band. Business is $29. |
| Free plan and trial | B | Free gives unlimited forms, submissions and questions with logic and calculations, 1 team seat, 20 external seats and 1 GB of storage. |
| Features | B | Forms, workflows and approvals, PDFs and signatures, payments, portals and an API. Nothing in the listing shows a gap in the core work. |

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Formaloo you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 116 of the 148 other form and survey tools we grade. It costs $228 a year.
What you could make
- Forms and surveys: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- A builder that other people can use without writing code.
- Databases with views, filters and links between them.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Formaloo’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
