Typeform — A conversational form builder presenting one question at a time — consistently higher completion rates than multi-field forms, used for lead capture, feedback, NPS, and applications. Here's the fastest sensible path from signup to real value.
Getting started, step by step
- Step 1. Start from a template close to your use case; the logic-jump editor is easier to modify than build fresh
- Step 2. Keep it under ~8 questions — completion drops measurably with length
- Step 3. Use hidden fields to pass UTM/source into responses for attribution
- Step 4. Wire the webhook or native integration into your CRM before launch, not after the leads pile up
- Step 5. Watch the response counter mid-month; hitting the cap silently stops collection
One mistake to avoid
Hard response caps: a viral form stops collecting mid-month on a small plan.
Cost to expect
Free plan (10 responses/mo); Basic ~$25/mo annual (100 responses); Plus ~$50/mo (1,000); Business ~$83/mo (10,000).
