HeyForm
Create conversational forms and surveys, collect answers, and share results.
What it helps with
HeyForm is a browser-based form builder for surveys, registrations, lead capture, applications, and internal requests. Non-technical staff can assemble questions and share a link while an agency can create repeatable form patterns for clients. The managed service is the quickest trial; self-hosting uses a multi-service Docker setup with database, cache, object storage and email considerations. Before collecting customer or employee data, the owner should define consent, access, retention, export, and deletion procedures.
Best fit
Best for general-purpose forms and surveys; not for complex regulated data collection without security and compliance review.
Setup reality
Docker/simple self-host; official Compose guidance exists, but production secrets, storage, email, TLS, backups and updates require administration.
License context
Copyleft licenseBusiness use is allowed. Sharing duties depend on the specific license and how modified software is distributed or offered.AGPL-3.0; business use is allowed; modified network deployments may require offering source.
