Typeform’s free plan stops at ten responses a month.

Unlimited forms, 10 responses a month and one user. All you need to start is an email address, and results download as a spreadsheet.

Typeform’s help center lists what’s paid: file uploads, removing its branding, redirects, reCAPTCHA, preventing duplicate responses, and closing a form automatically. Free and Basic forms show “Powered by Typeform” and, after someone submits, a “Create a typeform” button. Hiding both needs Plus.

One of Typeform’s template guides calls 10 questions “the limit for Free account holders”, and “Unlimited questions” is a paid feature. Logic is less clear: the Free plan article includes it, the plan chooser puts it under Basic, and Typeform says it is “experimenting now” with its plans. Check your own account before you build around it.

Typeform counts responses across all your forms, so three forms on Free share the same 10. The count resets each month, even on yearly plans, and unused responses don’t carry over.

Typeform warns you by email and in the app at 90% and 100%. At 100%, your forms go into Private mode until the next month begins or you upgrade. Typeform’s FAQ says this may be why a typeform shows as closed when you didn’t close it.

Test submissions through a published form count, and Typeform can’t reset the limit by hand if tests used it up. Deleting responses gives none back either.

• Tally “gives you unlimited forms and submissions, completely free”, within fair use; its policy calls a steady 50,000 a month extensive, and past fair use it offers a paid custom plan. Publishing needs an account. Free forms take file uploads up to 10 MB a file. Pro, $29 a month or $24 a month paid yearly, removes Tally branding and that cap.
• Google Forms works with a Google account and saves each form in your Drive. Google’s help pages state no response limit. People answering must sign in to Google if the form takes files or allows one response per person.
• Microsoft Forms works with a Microsoft account. A free personal account takes up to 200 responses a form; for more, export them to Excel and clear them. With “Anyone can respond”, nobody signs in, but such forms can’t take files: uploads need a work or school account.
• Jotform’s free Starter plan allows 5 active forms and 100 submissions a month across the account, with Jotform branding. Past a monthly limit it disables your forms on a date it emails you, showing “Form over quota”.

If the only question is which date suits everyone, a date poll is simpler: the guide to Doodle alternatives compares free ones.

Forms is ours, and it isn’t free: it comes with implements, $4.99 a month or $49.99 a year for every tool, with no ads. You can keep up to 100 forms, and each takes up to 50,000 answers in total, with no monthly count; each answer you delete frees a place. People answer from a link with no account, and answers download as a CSV. Each form’s page ends with a small “Made with Forms” line, which you can turn off.

It has 7 kinds of question and up to 50 questions a form, but no logic and no file uploads, so for branching or collecting files Tally or a paid Typeform plan does more. If your subscription ends, forms stop taking answers, and you can still read and export what came in. If you only need a form now and then, Tally’s free plan or Google Forms costs nothing.
