The best Jotform alternative
A full-featured drag-and-drop form builder with thousands of templates. Here’s how FormLoom compares — honestly, including where Jotform wins — and how to switch.
FormLoom vs Jotform
| Feature | FormLoom | Jotform |
|---|---|---|
| Free submissions / mo | 250 | 100 |
| Free storage | Forever — no expiry | Retained |
| Free file uploads | ||
| Free webhook | ||
| MCP server | ||
| llms.txt | ||
| Free dashboard | Full | Full |
| Spam protection | AI spam score + honeypot + captcha, on by default | Built-in + captcha |
| Paid entry (~10k/mo) | $18/mo | $34/mo |
Why switch
- It's a hosted builder, not a backend for your own code-first form.
- Entry pricing is high (~$34/mo) and free limits are modest.
- No MCP server or AI-tool codegen.
Where Jotform wins
Jotform's template library and drag-and-drop builder are enormous — for non-developers building complex forms with payments and logic, it's very capable.

FAQ
Yes — FormLoom matches the core form-backend functionality and adds 250 free submissions/mo, permanent storage, AI spam scoring, and an MCP server for AI coding tools. It's a hosted builder, not a backend for your own code-first form.
