You need to build a form, survey or quiz and Typeform comes to mind first — then you see the price. That's exactly where Fillout steps in. Short answer: for most businesses Fillout gives more per dollar; Typeform wins on polish and brand recognition.
The numbers below come from both tools' own pages and independent comparisons; all sourced. To be clear: I'm a Fillout affiliate, but I'm keeping this honest — I name where Typeform is the stronger pick too.
Free plan: it's not even a contest
Fillout's free plan gives 1,000 responses a month; Typeform gives 10. On top of that Fillout's free tier includes unlimited forms, conditional logic, taking payments, scheduling and PDF generation — most of which sit behind Typeform's paywall. So if you're starting out or your volume is low, you'll pay nothing with Fillout for a long time.
| Fillout | Typeform | |
|---|---|---|
| Free responses/mo | 1,000 | 10 |
| Paid starts at | $15/mo | $39/mo |
| Conditional logic (free) | Yes | Limited |
| Airtable / Notion | Direct read/write | Via integration |
| Strongest at | Capability per dollar | Polish & brand |
Let's be fair: Typeform knows something. That smooth one-question-per-screen experience and polished design language are still best in class; if you want that “feel” for your brand and have the budget, Typeform isn't a wrong choice. But for most form jobs, that polish doesn't justify the premium you pay.
Which one, when
Simple rule: if you work with Airtable/Notion, your volume varies, or you want the most capability per dollar, go Fillout. If top-tier polish and recognition are non-negotiable for your brand and budget isn't a concern, Typeform. For most founders and teams the right answer is Fillout — especially when its free plan gives this much.
