Typeform is a hosted form platform known for showing one question at a time, and its respondent experience is genuinely well crafted. Its forms can be shared as a link or embedded. Fillo renders the form inside your app and handles validation, uploads, and responses behind it.

Which should you choose?

When Fillo fits

The form belongs inside a signed-in application flow.
Your React or browser components must render the actual fields.
A typed schema should live beside the feature that uses it.
Uploaded files must go to customer-connected storage.
You want to move between a default renderer and a fully custom layout without replacing the response backend.

When to stay on Typeform

The one-question conversational presentation is the product requirement.
The form leans on Typeform's scoring, payments, or multiple endings — Fillo doesn't replace those, so they'd need a redesign first. Numeric calculations are the exception: they map to Fillo calculated fields.
Operators run the form entirely from Typeform's builder and nothing downstream needs your app's identity or markup.

The frictions that usually start the search

Teams rarely leave Typeform over one missing feature. They leave when the form becomes part of a product and hits one of these walls — each is Typeform's own documentation, so you can check them against your form:

Embedded forms can't take your CSS. Typeform's guidance is that custom CSS and JavaScript can't be added to embedded forms (community answer), so an embed keeps Typeform's look inside your page. A Fillo form renders as your components — the styling starts as yours instead of ending as theirs.
File uploads stop at 10 MB. Raising the per-file limit has been a community request for years; staff have answered that it isn't on the roadmap (thread). Fillo uploads go browser-direct to storage you connect, up to 5 GB per file and resumable, with the file kept on the response.
The response cap can close a launch. When a plan hits its monthly response limit, collection pauses — and Typeform staff confirm responses over the cap aren't recoverable (answer). Fillo counts completed responses only — previews, edits, and partial entries don't count — and the paid plan keeps collecting above 5,000 at €0.007 or $0.008 per extra response.
The embed is a second app inside your page. Typeform's embed library ships its own runtime, with server-side rendering and bundler issues tracked in its own repository. @usefillo/react is plain components in your build — there's no separate form runtime to load around them.

If none of these touch your form, Typeform may be serving you fine.

Key differences

Decision	Fillo	Typeform
Rendered form	Native React or DOM controls, fully headless UI, or a hosted page	Typeform-hosted experience loaded through its embed modes and SDK
Authoring	Dashboard or typed `defineForm()` schema	Typeform builder and platform APIs
Logic model	Field visibility, page jumps, early completion, and numeric calculated fields	Branching, variables, calculations, scoring, and multiple endings
Application identity	Optional server-verified respondent ID from your app	URL parameters, hidden fields, and Typeform response context
File destination	Browser-direct upload to connected Google Drive, Box, or S3-compatible storage such as Amazon S3 or Cloudflare R2	Files collected through Typeform and accessed from results or export links
Response limits	Fillo publishes monthly completed-response allowances	Typeform response limits depend on the account plan and apply across its forms

Check Fillo plans and limits and Typeform's current response-limit documentation before estimating production volume.

Before you switch

Fillo doesn't currently provide payment collection, Typeform's scoring modes, several answer-specific endings, a hosted-page custom domain, or a Typeform importer. If one of those features defines the form, keep Typeform or redesign that part before migrating. Numeric calculations — totals and derived values — carry over as calculated fields; graded-quiz scoring doesn't.

Fillo also starts a new response history. Your Typeform CSV or file archive stays an external record — it can't be imported as Fillo responses with versions and delivery state.

What you would need to change

Existing Typeform	Expected work
Linear questions with one ending	Rebuild the fields and pages, publish, and replace the embed
Branching, calculations, hidden fields, uploads, and integrations	Map question references to stable IDs, rebuild numeric calculations as calculated fields, and test every branch and destination
Scoring, several endings, payments, or payload-dependent automations	Redesign the flow and update downstream consumers before cutover

Next step

Open the editor and rebuild one real form first. If it works for your team, read Migrate from Typeform for the full checklist.

Migrate from Typeform: Plan the rebuild, archive, cutover, and rollback.
Embed a Fillo form: Choose a native React, DOM, or hosted form.
Conditional logic: Rebuild visibility rules and branching in Fillo.
Compare form tools: Find the right starting point for the form you need.
Headless form builder: See how a Fillo form works inside your app.
In-app feedback: Put a short survey inside a signed-in product flow.
Fillo plans and limits: Check response, branding, and upload limits.

Typeform alternative for native product forms

A form that feels like your product

The form is part of your page.

The answer lands with its context.

Files go straight to your storage.

Change the UI. Keep one set of rules.
