Formiqa

Forms that don't punish you for growing

What it does

We got a $480 Typeform invoice for 847 job applications. No AI needed. Just a form that charged us per response. So we built Formiqa. → Drag-and-drop builder — 15+ field types → 1 GB dedicated file storage, free (not Google Drive) → Real submission dashboard — not a spreadsheet → Email notifications included → Zero per-response fees on any plan Free: 5 forms, 10 submissions/form/month. Pro: $26.90/mo — 3× less than Typeform.

    Typeform was too expensive so I built my own forms2025 · ikiform.com · ▲190

    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…

    Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
