Two popular form builders compared on the same 25-row feature matrix and pricing, with FormBuilder shown as a third column so you can see another option to consider.
Overview
MightyForms is a drag-and-drop online form builder aimed at small businesses that needed lead-capture, intake, order and registration forms without writing code. Its signature idea was that a form should never lose a lead: every keystroke was saved as a partial submission, abandoned forms could be recovered with automated follow-up emails, and respondents could resume where they left off. Stripe and PayPal payments, autoresponders, email/SMS notifications, PDF export and Zapier connectivity rounded out the product.
In May 2026 FormBuilder acquired MightyForms. The MightyForms app remains available at its existing login for current customers, and nothing about existing accounts, forms, submissions or billing has been moved automatically. FormBuilder.com is now the home for the MightyForms public templates and educational resources, and it is where we recommend building new forms.
forms.app is a general-purpose builder for forms, surveys, quizzes and simple order forms. It ships a very large template gallery, 30+ field types, conditional logic, calculators, e-signatures, payment fields and its own AI assistant ("forms.app AI") that drafts a form from a prompt. Forms can be published as a standard page, a conversational one-question-at-a-time flow, or a pop-up, and every plan can connect to Google Sheets, Slack, Zapier and a growing native integration list.
Its pricing model is the interesting bit. Instead of metering responses, forms.app meters the number of forms and file storage: the free plan allows 5 forms with unlimited responses (subject to fair use) and 10 MB storage, Basic ($29 / mo, $19 annual) allows 25 forms and removes branding, Pro ($39 / mo, $29 annual) allows unlimited forms with 100 GB storage and a custom subdomain, and Premium ($79 / mo, $59 annual) adds a true custom domain and 1 TB. There is a 90-day refund guarantee and a 50% discount for non-profits and education.
Pricing
In each vendor's own terms; MightyForms checked 2026-08-17, forms.app checked 2026-08-18. FormBuilder: free plan (5 forms, 100 responses / mo) and Pro at $39 / month or $390 / year.

Both offer a free plan (2 forms · 100 submissions / mo · 1,000 views / mo · 3 logic rules per form · MightyForms branding) and a free plan (5 forms · unlimited responses (fair use) · 10 MB storage · AI, logic, payments, signatures · forms.app branding) respectively. Note the plans differ in limits — see the tables above. FormBuilder Pro, for reference, is $39 / month for 10,000 responses.

MightyForms is the drag-and-drop form builder known for abandoned-form recovery and partial submissions — now part of FormBuilder. forms.app is a broad, template-heavy form and survey builder that prices by number of forms and storage rather than responses, with an AI generator and payments on every plan including free. MightyForms is best for existing MightyForms customers who want to keep using the app they know; forms.app is best for small businesses and educators who need a lot of responses on a handful of forms without paying.
FormBuilder is worth a look if you want an AI generator that drafts forms from a sentence, 100 free responses a month with overflow held rather than lost, Stripe payments with no platform fee, and a flat $39 / month Pro plan for 10,000 responses.
