Which is better for a Notion-based workflow?

Fillout. Its native two-way Notion integration is the deepest in the category — form submission becomes a Notion database row immediately, and Notion updates can flow back into Fillout. Formfy doesn't try to compete here. Jotform also has solid Notion integration as a Fillout alternative with a longer track record.

How does pricing compare for a 3-person team?

Both are similar. Fillout Business at 3 seats is approximately $89-130/month. Formfy Business at 3 seats is $99/month plus add-ons — typically $120-150/month total. The bigger differentiator is workflow shape, not price.

Does Fillout handle e-signatures across multiple signers?

Yes, Fillout supports multi-signer flows but the routing is simpler than dedicated e-signature platforms. For multi-party contracts with signing order rules, named-signer authentication, and per-signer reminders, Formfy and DocuSign handle this more natively. SignNow and Dropbox Sign also handle multi-party signing with less overhead than DocuSign's enterprise tier.

Which has better AI features?

They serve different needs. Fillout's AI helps you build form structures; Formfy's AI generates the actual agreement document with legally coherent language. If you need 'form for collecting employee birthdays,' use Fillout. If you need 'consent form for laser hair removal at a medical spa,' use Formfy.

Best Fillout Alternative in 2026: Formfy vs Fillout

Formfy is an AI Agreement Engine for SMS-first client onboarding. Fillout is the newer form-builder competitor — Typeform-style UX with Jotform-style depth and a generous free tier targeting mid-market form needs. If your workflow ends in a signed agreement rather than a database row, there's a more focused path.

The TL;DR

Use case	Pick Formfy when…	Pick Fillout when…
Form-builder with database fields	Output is a signed PDF, not a database row	Output is a row in Notion / Airtable
Signed client agreements	Signature is the point of the workflow	Signing is one optional field among many
Conversational onboarding form	Form ends in a signed deposit-paid agreement	Form ends in a database write or webhook

Why teams look for a Fillout alternative

Fillout is an excellent form-builder: Typeform-style conversational UX, deep integrations with Notion, Airtable, and Google Sheets, and one of the most generous free tiers in the category. Teams start looking for a Fillout alternative when the form's purpose shifts from "collect data" to "produce a signed, legally binding agreement." Fillout has a signature field — but the signature is one field among many, not the product's core. The audit trail, certificate of completion, tamper-evident sealing, and legal-grade timestamping that underpin an enforceable agreement are byproducts in Fillout and primary features in Formfy.

Formfy is the AI Agreement Engine for SMS-first client onboarding — generate a complete, legally coherent agreement from a plain-language prompt, deliver it to a phone number, collect signature and deposit in one mobile link. The signed PDF is the product, not the side effect.

The verdict

Fillout sits in a sweet spot between Typeform's conversational UX and Jotform's feature depth — built primarily for teams that want a polished form-builder with deep integrations into databases like Notion, Airtable, Google Sheets, and modern CRMs. It's an excellent product for that specific motion. Formfy is built for a different output: a signed, timestamped, legally binding agreement with a payment attached. If your form output is "row in a database" or "webhook to Slack," Fillout is the better fit. If your form output is "signed PDF in a Drive folder + Stripe charge in the same flow," Formfy is what we built. DocuSign, PandaDoc, and SignNow are the other obvious candidates if the signature piece matters more than the form-builder piece.

Pricing side-by-side

Verified from each vendor's public pricing page on the last reviewed date. Fillout's free tier is one of the most generous in the form-builder category — directly competitive with Jotform on entry-level volume.

Where Formfy wins

Legal signing is the product. Fillout has a signature field; Formfy has a signed-agreement workflow. The audit trail, certificate of completion, tamper-evident sealing — these are Formfy's product, not a feature.
SMS-first delivery. Send the agreement to a phone number, signer signs without ever opening email. Fillout supports Twilio integration but it's a wire-up, not a native channel. Formfy and Smartwaiver are the two SMS-native platforms in this segment.
Payment in the same flow as signing. Fillout has Stripe integration but the natural pattern is form → submit → payment-as-next-step. Formfy is signature + payment + agreement all on one mobile link.
Generates the entire agreement, not just the form fields. Tell Formfy "I need a med spa consent for filler injections" — you get a full legally-coherent document. Fillout's AI builder generates form structures, not legal-grade agreement copy. DocuSign and Adobe Sign also generate signed output from existing documents; Formfy generates the document itself.

Where Fillout wins

Free tier. 1,000 submissions per month at $0 is one of the most generous free tiers in the category, on par with Jotform's free offering. Formfy's free trial is time-bounded.
Conversational form UX. Typeform-style one-question-at-a-time, with deeper field types and integrations. Typeform pioneered the pattern; Fillout extended it with richer conditional logic.
Database-first integrations. Native two-way sync with Notion, Airtable, and other modern databases is tighter than Formfy's. If your workflow ends in "row in Airtable," Fillout was built for that.
Conditional logic depth. Fillout's logic builder is more mature today; we're closing the gap.

If neither fits — also worth a look

If Fillout is too form-builder-focused and Formfy's agreement-engine motion isn't the right fit, these tools cover adjacent ground:

Typeform — The original conversational form UX leader; the template Fillout improved on.
Jotform — Wider template library and longest-running mid-market form platform; a Fillout alternative with deeper legacy integrations.
DocuSign — When the agreement and signing dominate the workflow over form-building; the category standard for legally binding documents.
SignNow — Cost-focused e-signature with simpler tooling; a practical alternative when signing is the only requirement.
Dropbox Sign — Clean, lightweight signing for teams that want less overhead than DocuSign.
IntakeQ — Purpose-built for healthcare intake with HIPAA compliance first; narrower but excellent for clinical practices.
WaiverForever — Waiver-specific form platform with kiosk signing; a vertical alternative where waivers are the only document type.
Formstack — Enterprise-grade form platform with deep Salesforce/ServiceNow integration; a Fillout alternative for IT-vetted enterprise contexts.

Common questions

Fillout has a signature field that's ESIGN/UETA compliant for simple electronic signatures, and submissions are timestamped. The audit trail isn't packaged as a formal certificate of completion the way a dedicated e-signature platform (Formfy, DocuSign, Adobe Sign) handles it. For routine consent and acknowledgment use cases this is fine; for high-stakes contracts where you might need to defend the signing process in court, a dedicated e-signature platform is the safer choice.
