Question 1

Is Cloud Form a Typeform alternative?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Cloud Form is an open source form builder with a Typeform-style one-question-at-a-time player, multi-page flows, and branching. You deploy it on your Cloudflare account instead of paying Typeform per response.

Question 2

Can I use Cloud Form instead of Google Forms?

Accepted Answer

If you want a conversational layout rather than a spreadsheet-like Google Form, yes. Cloud Form is closer to Typeform or Tally: welcome screens, branching, file uploads, and a branded player. Answers are stored in your Cloudflare D1 database, not a Google Sheet.

Question 3

Is Cloud Form free?

Accepted Answer

The software is free and open source. You host it yourself on Cloudflare; the free Workers, D1, and R2 tiers are enough to try it. There is no Cloud Form subscription.

Question 4

What kinds of forms can I build?

Accepted Answer

Contact forms, job applications, NPS surveys, event registration, newsletter signups, support tickets, and appointment requests. Each has a starter template you can try on this page.

Question 5

Where are responses and file uploads stored?

Accepted Answer

On your Worker. Fields go to D1 (SQLite). Uploads go to your R2 bucket. Nothing is sent to a Cloud Form cloud — there isn't one.

Question 6

Do I need to know how to code?

Accepted Answer

You need GitHub and Cloudflare accounts for one-click deploy. After that, the visual builder is point-and-click. No Typeform or Google account required.
