About Paperform

Paperform is a commercial online form builder whose editor works like a document. Users type questions and format the page, adding fields, images and layout in a way that feels closer to writing than to configuring software.

The product supports forms, surveys, payment collection, scheduling, order forms and calculators, and it can send documents for signing through a companion product called Papersign. Another product, Stepper, handles workflow automation for small businesses. Conditional logic lets forms adapt to answers. Paperform is hosted, and a free way to try it is advertised.
