## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.8 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. FormSubmit is a free endpoint that emails what an HTML form sends, with no registration. It has no dashboard or stored entries on the pages we read, so everything lives in your inbox.

- **Value for money: A.** Free, and the site lists no paid plans or limits.
- **Free plan and trial: A.** Free outright, with no registration. No cap is listed.
- **Features: C.** Email delivery, file uploads, spam options, webhooks and a hidden email address. It does that job fully, but there is no dashboard or stored archive, and it is a smaller job.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record, and it is a web app where the work is writing the HTML form yourself, so it sits at C.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with webhooks and no listed integrations or apps.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** Formsubmit is free, so making your own would save you nothing. And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 132 of the 148 other form and survey tools we grade.

- You could make: Forms: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
