Like FormSubmit, but your submissions actually stick around

Formstork is a form backend for HTML, React, Vue, Svelte and more. Point your form at our endpoint and every submission lands in a real dashboard, with spam protection, integrations, export and a rules engine built in.

What is FormSubmit?

FormSubmit is a free, no-signup service that forwards your HTML form straight to your email. You activate it by submitting once and confirming a link. It is genuinely useful for a quick contact form, but it stores nothing: there is no dashboard, no history, no export, and no integrations beyond the forwarded email.

A real inbox, not just email

FormSubmit forwards each submission to your email and keeps nothing. Formstork stores every submission in a searchable, taggable dashboard you can filter, export to CSV or JSON, and come back to months later.

Deliver anywhere your team works

FormSubmit only sends email. Formstork also fans out each submission to Slack, Discord, Google Sheets, Telegram and HMAC-signed webhooks, so the response lands where your team already is.

Grows with you

FormSubmit is a fine zero-setup relay. When you need spam rules, autoresponders, a no-code builder, SDKs or a team workspace, Formstork has them without changing your form markup.

Switching keeps your HTML

Point your form's action at your Formstork endpoint and add your access key. The markup you already have keeps working.

<form action="https://api.formstork.com/submit" method="POST">
  <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="YOUR_KEY">
  <input type="email" name="email" required>
  <textarea name="message" required></textarea>
  <button>Send</button>
</form>

The honest verdict

If all you want is a submission forwarded to your email with zero setup and no account, FormSubmit does that well and free. The moment you want to keep, search or export your submissions, route them to Slack or Sheets, add spam rules, or hand a form to a non-technical teammate, Formstork is built for it.

FormSubmit features as of 2026, from their public documentation. *FormSubmit does not store submissions, so there is no monthly cap; there is also no stored history to return to. Check their site for the latest.
