Formsort form builder open access - build your own forms

Today, I’m excited to introduce Formsort to the public! 

We've been heads down for a while helping product and marketing teams double their conversion rates and reduce engineering costs with our software. Our low-code form builder helps teams build and optimize their most important forms: sign-up, check-ins, quizzes and more. 

We believe that form infrastructure should be owned by product managers and marketers – not just engineers. With self-serve, we’re bringing highly customizable form building to everyone.

Why we created another form builder - Formsort

Our founding team helped start Better, where we moved the mortgage application process online. The first step in getting a mortgage — pre-approval — was our first touchpoint with customers, so we invested significant time and resources to get it right.

Pre-approval was essentially a complicated form: we collected sensitive data from our leads through a well-designed UX; pulled their financial data via APIs; qualified them with complex business logic; and securely stored all of the results in our systems.

As Better's Head of Product, my team created the vision for this experience, but our engineering team had to build it from scratch. Each change, from mundane copy updates to complicated 3rd party integrations, was a project that could take weeks to get prioritized and implemented. This significantly slowed down our ability to test and optimize the experience.

We observed this pattern of inefficiency in every industry moving complex transactions online: healthcare, financial services, SaaS and e-commerce. Over 90% of any sign-up form is generic, yet every company rebuilt the same components from scratch: styles, state management, data processing, and more. When we looked at available tools, popular form builders like Typeform and Jotform were too limited in functionality, and weren’t helping tech companies with their complex product form infrastructure. 

That’s why we built Formsort – to empower product and marketing teams to build complex forms, without engineers.

How does Formsort's form builder work?

Formsort is a highly extensible and customizable hosted form builder platform. You can edit design, content, and logic within our studio - you don't need to run anything or host anything. Your forms can be embedded or accessed directly. We don't own your form data - we just make sure it's passed through safely to your systems of record and analytics stack.

Build forms that look native to your product

Your brand is unique. Our theme editor lets you build forms that are consistent with your brand’s design. You can customize every single component of your form, from background colors down to individual states of buttons. Get the design flexibility of a custom coded form - without writing a single line of code.

Personalize responder experiences using complex logic

No two people are the same, so don't treat your responders as such. Our conditional logic editor lets you send responders down personalized paths depending on their responses to each of your questions.

For more complex, real-time calculations - like mental health assessments or drug price lookup - you can develop a calculated variable or populate answer choices from your own backend via API.

Send data to the rest of your tech stack

You should own your data - not us. Our platform has native integrations with the most common data stores: BigQuery, PostgreSQL, Redshift, and even Google Sheets. Use Webhooks for everything else. 

You can also send data to multiple data destinations, pull data back into the form via custom questions, and ensure teammates don't accidentally break anything with validations and form-level schemas.

If you want to send data to analytics destinations, we have native integrations with tools like Segment, Google Analytics, Optimizely, and Amplitude.

Maintain a high degree of data privacy and security

Data privacy has been a core part of Formsort’s philosophy since day 1. Formsort is SOC 2 Type II certified and HIPAA compliant, meaning we’ll sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with you.
