Open source conversational forms you can host yourself

Conditional

ConvoForm is the only Apache 2.0 conversational form builder in this directory whose code you can run on your own infrastructure with Docker, and its hosted version is free with no card. Conditional because its stack names OpenAI for the AI layer and Clerk for sign-in, and the repository does not document where answers go when self-hosted, so verify the data path before relying on residency. It is a small project with about 100 stars and no support commitment we could find: budget engineering time, not a subscription.

AI-Native

The response surface is a model-driven chat rather than a rendered field list, so the conversation is the product and not a skin over one.

Is it right for you?

Good for

  • Self-hosting the form app on your own infrastructure, with Docker Compose and self-hosting documentation in the repository
  • Teams with engineers who would rather own the stack than rent it
  • Proving the conversational format costs nothing to try

Not good for

  • Anyone who needs a support contract and an SLA
  • Non-technical teams with nobody to run a deployment
  • Buyers who need published compliance certifications
  • Strict data residency taken on trust: the stack names OpenAI for AI and Clerk for sign-in, and the repository does not say where answers go when self-hosted

Our experience

We haven't tested ConvoForm ourselves. This profile is based on public documentation, user reviews, and community feedback.

Verdict history

Oct 1, 2026
conditional -> conditional (summary corrected: data-path and contributor claims qualified): The stored summary said ConvoForm answers the question of running forms without handing answers to somebody else, and asserted a thin contributor base. The repository (read 2026-10-01) lists OpenAI and Clerk in the stack and documents no data path for self-hosted installs, and the contributor graph did not load, so both claims were unsupported. The licence is Apache License 2.0. Rating holds.

    Repository now reachable: Apache License 2.0, 101 stars, 544 commits, stack names OpenAI and Clerk, no documented data path for self-hosted installs. Stored claim that answers stay on your systems and the thin-contributor claim were unsupported (contributor graph did not load). Description, strengths, tiers and sources refreshed; same-rating verdict_set corrected the summary. Data correction, no news draft.

    Could not confirm the licence or self-hosting claims: the homepage read shows no repository link, github.com/convoform lists only one 2023 repository, and guessed repo URLs returned 404. Stored values kept and the entity's own note to confirm the licence stands.
