I built a Typeform alternative and just crossed 8,000 users

Hey everyone! Just wanted to share a quick update on my side project, Buildform.ai - a modern form builder we built as an alternative to Typeform, focused on conversion-first forms, smart logic, and AI-powered workflows.

We did it the “wrong” way. Instead of launching early and iterating, I spent months obsessing over getting everything right — bug-free, fast, production-ready. Honestly, I was shit scared it might flop. But turns out, people really appreciate a forms app they can rely on.

Some highlights:

  • AI Form Builder: Just type what you want and boom, form done

  • Partial Submissions + Analytics: See drop-offs, optimize based on data

  • Logic Editor that actually works

  • AI Logics Builder (coming soon): No more tangled logic flows, it writes them for you

  • DeepOptimize (coming soon): AI that auto-fixes your forms for better conversion

We’re at 8,000 users now. Still early, but the feedback has been incredible. If you’re building forms for lead gen, customer onboarding, or internal tools, would love for you to try it out or tear it apart.


Appreciate any thoughts, an upvote, or feedback. Always happy to trade notes with other builders!

Love this. Congrats on the traction — $18K and 8K users is no joke 👏

We took a similar path with Yutapp.com instead of launching early, we’ve been heads-down refining every part of the product.

Totally relate to that fear of flopping, but there’s something rewarding about launching with confidence in your product. We’re gearing up to launch very soon (here) and this post is a great reminder that quality-first can still win.

Would love to stay in touch and maybe trade learnings after we go live 🙌
