Formstack starts at $99 a month in a category where capable free plans exist. Its submission limits are per form rather than pooled — a structure that punishes one busy form.
Tally's free plan includes unlimited forms and unlimited submissions, plus conditional logic and file uploads. Competitors cap free submissions in the dozens. Here is what you pay for instead.
UI Bakery's free plan gives unlimited developer seats. Its paid plans charge per developer. That inversion is the most important thing to understand before you upgrade.
Superblocks bundles 15 builders into a $100 plan — cheap per seat against Retool. The catches are one included hosted app at $10 for each extra, and a monthly GAU cap that sits oddly beside "unlimited end users."
Zite gives unlimited users and apps on every plan, including free — genuinely generous. The constraints are records and workflow runs. Note: Zite competes with Jet Admin, and we say so.
Bolt's token rollover on Pro is genuinely unusual and worth having. Its free tier advertises 300K tokens a day against a 1M monthly ceiling, which is less generous than it reads.
WeWeb's real advantage is that you can leave: code export and GitHub sync from $20 a month. Its real complexity is billing on two axes — workspace plan and per-project hosting.
Stacker is no longer the portal builder most reviews describe. It moved to stacker.ai, repositioned around AI agents, and switched to credits with no per-seat charges. Here is what that changes.
Noloco's permissions go deeper than almost any no-code rival — app, collection, record and field level — which is why agencies use it for client portals. The ceilings are workflow runs and seats.
v0 generates React and Next.js interfaces from prompts, and it is very good at that specific job. The subscription is essentially prepaid credits, and the output still needs a backend.
