The integrations are seriously powerful, you'll see what we mean when you try them out.
“I just launched our new quote form using Fillout - the product is terrific and by far the best solution for us out of all the other forms I've tried (typeform, jotform, etc.). I'm really thrilled about how much this will help our processes.”

Gravity Forms' biggest differentiatior is that it was built solely with WordPress in mind. That said, Fillout integrates nicely with WordPress as well via its embed feature.
How do the products compare?
Pricing isn't everything. If you've previously used Gravity Forms, you probably want to know: can Fillout really replace Gravity Forms?
Ok, but what about advanced features?
The Fillout form builder makes it easy to build modern-looking forms quickly, while also supporting advanced use cases.
Fillout offers two primary paid tiers, a starter tier for $15/month and a business tier for $75/month (paid annually). More details on the Fillout pricing page.
Here's how some of the paid features stack up with Gravity Forms:
| Fillout | Gravity Forms | |
|---|---|---|
| Workspaces | Free | |
Custom domains | Business | Only embeds |
Partial submissions | Business | $259 |
| Meta pixel | Pro | Add-on |

Fillout also has an enterprise offering for companies with advanced security and form-building needs.
TL;DR: The short version
Cut to the chase? Fillout is the more modern form builder, with a generous free tier and more advanced features overall. Gravity Forms was built just for Wordpress and has a cheaper annual tier, but no monthly tier.
Gravity Forms may be a better choice when…
- You want your Wordpress theme to be pulled in automatically. With Fillout you'll have to create a custom theme.
Fillout is best if…
- You care about your form's appearance and want the form to convert well.
- You need advanced features like address autocomplete, Calendly or custom fonts.
- You use tools like Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable or Salesforce.
- You need forms with advanced validation and show/hide logic.
That's all for now! Hopefully this guide gave you useful general overview of Gravity Forms compared to Fillout.

Jason H.
CEO, Biochar Life
“I was looking for a somewhat advanced form tool to enroll my users on a registration platform in full integration with Airtable, with filters, conditional displays, pre-fills, url parameters with real-time data mapping from Airtable, error message customization, partial form submissions... I'm a bit demanding and I found all these features at Fillout, you can really develop a very very advanced tool and the customer service is responsive, efficient and nice! Thank you for all this and long life to Fillout!”
Sébastien Rade
Designer, no-coder
“If you want an actual form where people/yourself can add & edit records you should try fillout.com. I’ve been using it for a bit and it’s great.”

“Fillout as un super outil et une très bonne équipe, bon week-end from France !”
Benjamin Martin
Gérant & co-fondateur
“One of my best finds in the Airtable community was a recommendation for fillout.com. Development/support team is super responsive to bug fixes and have created or accelerated some new features I was seeking. I particularly like the show/hide logic…seems way easier than JotForm. I'm probably only a month or two from dropping JF completely in favor of Fillout. 🙂”
Mark D Bowers

“Fillout c'est devenu mon chouchou dés la première utilisation. Je l'utilise partout maintenant. En effet sur le champ multiple choices, tu as une option other mais pas sur le select. Le service client est ultra réactif, ca vaut le coup de le remonter.”
Arthur Juin

“Its amazing! Straight out of the gate, it does everything I need :) I'm just starting my online business and I needed something that my customers can put their custom options in to easily. I had tried about 6 other form creators and was going to give up and then I found you around page 5 on Google and you've nailed it!”

“Fillout really impressed me. Initially wrote it off as another form builder, but once I cracked into it, it's seriously powerful. 10/10 recommend!”
Derek Williamson

“The native integration with Airtable couldn't be easier. When I add a new field in Airtable, I refresh the connection in Fillout and there's the new field - ready to be added to a form. Steve Jobs would have been a huge fan because "It just works."”

The integration with Airtable is seamless, the pricing is incredibly reasonable, the user interface is incredible and last but far from least - the customer service is exceptional. I've had a few questions along the way and they've all been answered, via the chat box on their site, in a matter of minutes.”

“Just want to say that I've been playing around for about an hour now and the level of sensible functionality Fillout offers is absolutely amazing. (Filtering on Airtable linked record field value, (which AT doesn't even offer themselves), creating records in a linked table, linking different forms to create multiple records in one table, etc.) Great job to the whole team over there, this is fantastic!”

“Actually just general kudos for a great product to Fillout. I tried Typeform, Jotform, Airtable forms, and Google form before trying it: Fillout has everything the competitors lack =)”
Siggi
Business Owner
“Fillout is the tool that I've been waiting for years for our business. I've literally spent weeks and weeks of my life creating forms by hand as we needed a separate form for each class so that we could track attendance. I'm having a hard time explaining to my wife that I'm very very happy today because I found a new app for forms. Seriously congrats. Really great product. We do after school clubs in PT and UK. We have 400+ classes in PT, 40 and growing in the UK. I had to create forms by hand for each class and have my team update each form every time a student signed up or left. We did hire a developer to automate this with google forms, but the solution still is a pain and we're not able to easy edit the forms if we want to. Fillout solves all of this and the forms look great and it's incredibly intuitive to use for people with experience with Airtable and tools like Zapier/Integromat.”

“I have come to fillout.com from Typeform, a tool I have been a dedicated user of for over 12 months now. But, I found the functionality in fillout.com to be far more powerful. Ideally, being able to bespoke build the form categories in Fillout is far beyond what you can do in Typeform, so that is great!!”

“Just wanted to do a shoutout to Fillout.com. Used them for the first time this weekend. Needed a form that was highly functional and would integrate with Airtable and Make.com. Was using Jotform, but hit their max on the free program and they shut my account down. Fillout was pretty intuitive. You have enough flexibility that it blended with my website. Had looked at it before and heard great things, but now I am a big fan! Definitely going to be using their platform again.”
