Formaloo

AI form and database platform for teams that want surveys, portals, and lightweight internal apps on top of a structured data layer.

6.9/10
Overall Score
Conditional recommend

Formaloo builds forms, client portals and small internal apps on a relational database, and the free plan has no limit on forms or submissions. Paid plans start at $19 a month billed yearly, and Business adds custom domains and branding removal.

Best for

Ops and product teams that want forms connected to a lightweight AI database or portal without buying a full internal-tools suite.

Not ideal for

Teams that only need a beautiful one-off survey, or buyers comparing only payment-heavy commerce forms.

Verdict

Formaloo is a fair fit when the bottleneck is forms that become small apps and databases. Practitioners like the AI data layer; buyers who mainly need branded checkout forms may still prefer Paperform or Fillout.
