Typebot

Self-Hosted

Open-source conversational form builder & chatbot platform (alternative to Typeform)

Overview

Typebot lets you build interactive conversational forms, surveys, and chatbots with a no-code drag-and-drop interface. It supports custom conditional branching, multimedia elements (images, videos), and integrations with Slack, Discord, Zapier, and more. Deploy self-hosted via Docker/Kubernetes for full data control, or use the cloud version. Embed on websites, share links, or connect to WhatsApp/Facebook Messenger—ideal for lead gen, support, and feedback with open-source flexibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

? Is Typebot hard to install?

Typebot is easy to self-host using Docker—run a single command or Docker Compose for full setup. A Helm chart is available for Kubernetes. Basic Docker/server familiarity helps, but no advanced coding is needed.

? Is it a good alternative to Typeform?

Yes! Typebot matches Typeform’s core conversational form features plus self-hosting for data control. Its no-code builder is similar, and it’s open-source—so you can customize it, unlike Typeform’s closed platform.

? Is Typebot completely free?

The open-source version is free to self-host/modify (MIT license). The cloud version has a free tier (limited bots/responses) and paid tiers for unlimited access, team features, and premium integrations.
