What Form.io is
Form.io is a form and data management platform for building forms and APIs through a drag-and-drop interface, with forms defined as JSON schema. Its open-source renderers can display those forms inside applications built with React, Angular, or Vue. Conditional logic, multi-step wizards, and post-submission actions can route data or trigger integrations such as Google Sheets and webhooks. Form.io also supports offline data collection with later syncing, and integrations with SAML, OAuth, and custom JWT tokens. Deployment options include web, API, and self-hosted environments; its enterprise platform is delivered as Docker containers for on-premises or cloud deployment. The API Plus configuration lists security capabilities including audit logging and field-level encryption. Form.io notes that these features support compliance but do not certify an application. The SaaS trial excludes some compliance features, prohibits collecting sensitive or personally identifiable information, and becomes read-only afterward unless continued at $300 per month.
