Getting Started

Welcome to FormsIntel

FormsIntel is a developer-first headless form API and real-time telemetry infrastructure. Engineered for modern web architects, it serves as a highly robust alternative to Formspree, Typeform, and Netlify Forms — giving you 100% control over your CSS/styling while automatically handling anti-spam shielding, field-by-field drop-off analytics, and instant webhook dispatches.

The Three Pillars

FormsIntel is built around three core principles that power every feature.

Collection

Headless form endpoints that accept submissions from any frontend, any framework, any device. Zero CSS lock-in.

Intelligence

Real-time field-level drop-off funnels, geographic heatmaps, spam velocity detection, and conversion analytics.

Distribution

Instant webhook dispatches, sanitized JSON payloads, and direct integrations that push clean data to your stack.

Who is FormsIntel for?

FormsIntel is designed for three distinct audiences, each with their own workflow.

Non-Tech Founders & Marketers

Use the Dashboard's no-code drag-and-drop Form Builder to create forms in minutes. Embed them via URL or iFrame. Analyze field-by-field drop-offs and geographic hotspots — all without writing a single line of code.

Frontend Developers

Install our React SDK (formsintel-sdk), wrap your app with <FormsIntelProvider>, and use our headless useFormsIntel() hook. Keep 100% of your Tailwind/CSS styling. Our infrastructure handles submission state, error handling, telemetry collection, and spam filtering automatically.

Backend Developers

Generate API keys from the Developer Profile, consume sanitized JSON payloads via Webhooks, query analytics via RESTful endpoints, and automate your entire form pipeline programmatically. FormsIntel never touches your backend — you stay in full control.
