Quizcraft vs Typeform: Open Source vs Subscription

Quizcraft and Typeform solve the same problem from opposite directions: one is source-available software you can own outright for $29, the other is a subscription at $25+/mo run entirely on someone else's servers.

What Quizcraft does well

  • One-question-per-screen builder — Multiple choice, image choice, rating and text questions in a clean flow you can reorder freely.
  • Conditional branching — If answer = X, jump to question Y rules resolved server-side so the logic cannot be tampered with.
  • Scoring and result buckets — Per-option points with score-range or answer-mapped results; points and criteria never reach the browser.
  • Lead-gen gate — Optionally require an email before revealing the result — the quiz-as-lead-magnet pattern without per-lead pricing.

What Typeform still does better

There's a real reason Typeform costs what it does: a bigger team, broader integrations and dedicated support behind it. If that ecosystem is genuinely what you need, it's worth paying for.

Which one should you pick

If your workflow depends on Typeform's specific integrations or you'd rather not run anything yourself, stay put — that's a legitimate call. If you're comfortable owning the tool and want to stop paying $25+/mo for a job your own hardware can do, Quizcraft pays for itself and then some: a lead-gen quiz that captures 500 emails a month climbs into Typeform's $83 tier — Quizcraft is $29, once.
