Hello everyone!!
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 became increasingly expensive. At that time, I considered using Google Forms, 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 use, and it turned out that it almost doubled form submissions and inquiry calls.
I was happy, so I thought to build it for everyone and make it open-source.
I added AI functionalities using Vercel AI SDK. I can generate forms almost instantly using AI, and I also added analytics AI so that users can interact with their forms – more like talking with their analytics data.
I've been building this publicly, sharing updates on my X account (@preetsuthar17).
