What is Jotform?

Jotform is a drag-and-drop form builder with conditional logic, widgets, templates and payment collection through 40+ gateways, with no extra Jotform transaction fee. Its AI Form Generator builds a form from a prompt, AI Agents answer respondents' questions, and the AI Data Assistant turns submissions into tables, insights and charts. The same account includes e-signatures, tables, workflows, reports and a mobile app that works offline. Plans are priced by usage limits: the free Starter plan allows 5 forms and 100 submissions a month, and Bronze, Silver and Gold raise forms, submissions, payments and storage.
