24 alternatives to I built an open source dynamic and cheaper TypeForm using AI
Hi everyone, I recently built a tool called Ziggy. Ziggy is a alternative to tools like Typeform except Ziggy uses AI to ask dynamic questions like you would ask when doing an interview with a user with some pretty powerful analytics. It's completely open source and was made to help save time and money doing 1-on-1 interviews with a lot of users in a short amount of time. We're also looking for any and all feedback so let me know what you think! Give it a try here by doing a feedback survey for Ziggy: https://www.useziggy.com/zy/MtAp-d7ebzylr
Ziggy is an open source form and survey tool that uses AI to ask dynamic questions during user interviews, similar to Typeform. It's designed for researchers and product teams who need to conduct multiple one-on-one… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. I built an open source dynamic and cheaper TypeForm using AI launched in 2024; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

Hi, I'm a high school teacher from Australia and I've built what I'd like to think is a pretty nifty ChatGPT powered presentation tool for teachers. I'd love it if you could have a look at it and give me some of your feedback. I don't think there's much overlap with the HN crowd and school teachers, but I've been coming here for many years and thought I'd post here and see what you all think. Check it out if you have a minute and I'd be super happy to hear your feedback too. https://www.slidehero.ai/ You can jump in and have a play with the tool all you like ;) Cheers, Eli

Hey HN, I'm a solopreneur and run a web design agency. I create open-source apps, but I also work as a freelancer and designer. I was accepting any new freelance project via forms on my agency website. I was using Typeform, but as time went by and more people submitted forms, it got more and more expensive. That time, I thought to use Google Form, but it was way too blocky and looked very unprofessional on my agency website. So I thought to build my own forms for my own usage, and it turns out it almost doubled form submissions and inquiry calls. I was happy, so I thought to build it for…

Zigpoll▲73Hey everyone I’m a solo founder and developer, and I’ve been building software since 2011. Over the years, I watched customer feedback tools go from simple and focused to bloated, enterprise-heavy platforms. Tons of features, endless configuration… and yet I kept using maybe 10% of what was there. The rest mostly got in the way. So I decided to build the feedback tool I actually wanted to use. That became Zigpoll — a fast, focused survey and feedback platform designed for real-world businesses. It does the essentials really well: post-purchase surveys, attribution insights, customer feedback…

Hi everyone, I've made an early version of ZigFormer, a small LLM implemented in Zig with no dependencies on external ML frameworks like PyTorch or JAX. ZigFormer is modelled after a textbook LLM (like GPT-2 from OpenAI) and can be used as a Zig library as well as a standalone application to train a model and chat with it. This was mainly an educational project. I'm sharing it here in case others find it interesting or useful. Link to the project: https://github.com/CogitatorTech/zigformer

Hey HN, This is a Show HN (poorly) disguised as an Ask HN. I'm launching https://www.parliant.ai, a survey tool that rethinks how surveys are created and answered. Instead of building forms, the survey creator just writes what they want to learn and AI takes it from there, chatting with respondents to get meaningful answers. To show how it works, I’ve created a short demo survey with the question in the title. The idea is for you to try it out and see the respondent experience, which is really the core of the innovation. I’d love to get your answers and your feedback. The survey is…

Hi friends, I'm Dmitry, co-founder of Ordemio. I'd like to share with you what we have accomplished in 30 days of non-stop, 10-hour workdays. It was launched on August 1st, 2024. Is it good enough to attract our first customers? We have launched a new product in the highly competitive niche of "ChatGPT AI chatbot for a website," facing over 100 existing competitors on purpose. It's a gamble, and I'm unsure if it was the right decision. Feel free to ask any questions. Cheers.

Hi HN I’ve been building Crispforms, a conversational form builder inspired by Typeform — but with one big difference: it’s completely free for unlimited forms and unlimited submissions. I started this after getting tired of paywalls and usage caps kicking in the moment a form actually starts working. Crispforms lets you create high-converting, multi-step forms with logic, analytics, exports, and integrations — without worrying about limits. This is still early and very much shaped by user feedback. I’d genuinely love to hear how you use forms today, what feels broken, and what you’d expect…

I'm a solo indiehacker and just made Makeform AI — an AI form-building copilot that lets you build complex forms by chatting, kind of like how Cursor helps you code. Instead of dragging and dropping fields or wrestling with logic conditions, you just tell Makeform what you need, and it generates everything: Questions Conditional logic Design Integrations (email, Slack, webhooks, etc.) For example, say “I need a lead-gen form for B2B SaaS founders” — it’ll generate a beautiful, branded form, ready to publish or embed. Why I built it: I’ve always found traditional form builders slow and…

Hey everyone! I recently built this little side project that takes any document you upload and turns it into practice quizzes using LLMs to generate the questions: https://www.cuiz-ai.com Being a backend engineer, I have always struggled to finish my side projects due to my awful frontend skills. Now, with the progress of AI coding tools, I had no more excuses. 100% of the frontend, landing page and even the logo was made using a combination of Cursor, ChatGPT and Claude, but it's always been under my supervision and never blindly accepted the proposed changes. The backend and…

Hey HN! When implementing an AI-powered feature for a project, we—and many people we've talked to—often reach a point where we have to choose an AI model but aren’t sure which one best fits our constraints or where to even start. Unfortunately, the advice to "just use chatgpt" is not always a good one. What if I want an open-source model? What languages does it support? What about context window size or the number of parameters? There are thousands of AI models already out there and many of them are perfect for certain problems. That’s why we’ve carved out this part of our product as a free…
